Reduce Software Costs By 90% For Small

01/05/2005 03:13 AMSmall Businesses who want enterprise software such as CRM (Customer
Relationship Management), Project Management, and eLearning have
typically been ignored by the software industry. Change is coming,
however, and it may be the software makers themselves who end up
feeling left out. With abundant and cheap computing power and new
feature-rich Open Source Business applications, small businesses can
now bypass commercial software altogether. With Managed Application
Service providers filling the technological gap, small businesses can
digitize key parts of their operations without making large
investments in consultants, hardware, or software licensing. [PRWEB

In Brief: Microsoft to release Office
Small Business Accounting
04/06/2005 12:06 PMMicrosoft in September plans to release Office Small Business
Accounting, a new product designed to help small businesses operate
better, taking on Intuit, Best Software, and others. Microsoft will
sell Office Small Business Accounting as a stand-alone product and as
part of a new Office bundle called Office Small Business Management
Edition. The new Office bundle will include the familiar Office 2003
applications along with an updated version of Outlook 2003 with
Business Contact Manager, Microsoft has said. Pricing has not yet been
disclosed. With the new product, small businesses will be able to
manage customer, financial, and business processes, according to
Microsoft. Payroll functionality is offered through integration with
services from outsourced payroll services provider Automatic Data
Processing. Office Small Business Accounting is currently available in
a beta test version. Office Small Business Accounting will be
available in the U.S. first, with other countries set to follow about
a year-and-a-half after the U.S. release.

Microsoft Small Business Accounting
Targeted for H1 2006
02/05/2005 09:45 PMAccording to Karan Khanna, product manager for Microsoft's forthcoming
Small Business Accounting (now in beta testing), Microsoft is aiming
for a release of the platform in the first half of 2006. Microsoft
had previously announced product availability in late 2005. From the
transcript of The .NET Show featuring SBA:
"ROBERT HESS: Now Christin mentioned that we were in the beta
phase right now in this application. When does it actually come out
into the market for real?
KARAN KHANNA: The plan is in the first half of next year you would
have the application available. But it's in beta right now. "
The application, targeting small (1-25) businesses, is currently in
<A
href="http://blog.sagetechnology.com/techsage/archive/2004/11/06/
248.aspx" target=_blank>beta testing</A>. An <A
href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/isv/technology/sba"
target=_blank>SDK</A> for ISVs should be available soon and
those interested should visit the <A
href="http://msdn.microsoft.com/isv/technology/sba"
target=_blank>ISV Community Center for SBA</A>. The .NET
Show episode includes demos of development with the SDK as well as
code samples. Other exciting news for developers is that, because
user security for SBA is built into the SQL database (MSDE is
supported),the platform will allow direct access to the database from
third party applications or even end users' - import/analyze via SQL
ODBC in spreadsheets, for example.
