    Cheat Sheet I Sage ERP MAS Intelligence

    How to Explain Sage ERP MAS Intelligence


    In 20 words Gain instant visibility of trusted real-time information from across your business to make insightful decisions
    through flexible Excel® reporting.

    In 70 words Sage ERP MAS Intelligence seamlessly integrates into your Sage ERP MAS solution and is 100% Microsoft Excel-
    based for easy report design, distribution, and consumption. It allows managers to spend more time focusing on
    information analysis and interpretation, giving them real-time access to information from across the business
    when and where they want in a format of their choice, and less time pulling the data together.

    FRx replacement No longer is simple General Ledger reporting enough; customers need more. Sage ERP MAS Intelligence is the ideal
    candidate for FRx® replacement to take customers from simple financial reporting to reporting and analyzing their
    entire ERP solution. Customers who purchased FRx licenses in the past will receive the same number of Intelligence
    license(s) and/or modules giving them comparable functionality.

    Intelligence is integrated with Sage ERP MAS, Sage ERP Accpac, Sage Simply Accounting, and Sage Peachtree
    because of its proven track record of over 22,000 installs worldwide and a renewal rate in excess of 90%.
