Art's Full Review:
The Master Accounting Software, or MAS 90, has been around for
24 years. Different than other systems in its arena, MAS
90 has
evolved over its lifetime from a basic accounting system into a
full blown, fully integrated business solution. Its modules span
from the front office, where local and remote salespersons have
accurate and efficient access to prospect and customer data, through
the warehouse where shop floor controls and optional bar coding
efficiency oversee purchasing, manufacturing, picking, packing
and shipping and ultimately to the back office where its core modules
allow instant access to customer and vendor data, as well as producing
an array of financial information available in reports, charts
and dashboards. MAS 90 excels at bringing an organization's departments
together through its modular integration.
MAS 90 is available in 3 configurations depending on the needs
of the customer. MAS 90 is a local area application best suited
for smaller companies with 1 to 10 concurrent users. Companies
requiring only 1-2 concurrent users can choose MAS 90 Small
Business Edition, offering the same features as MAS 90 at a lower price
point. For companies with larger sets of data and higher numbers
of users, MAS 200 offers a true client-server application. MAS
90 and MAS 200 share identical feature sets, but MAS 200 can often
result in up to a 40% speed increase compared with MAS 90. A great
benefit to customers is the way MAS 90 can grow as their business
grows. Starting from a 1 user MAS90 Small Business install, MAS
90 can easily transition to a 100 user MAS 200 system, with minimal
downtime and no retraining of users.
MAS 90 • MAS 200 is a modular system. Each application is
purchased separately and can function independently (the only required
module is General Ledger). The core modules are General Ledger,
Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, Bank Reconciliation and
Payroll. The distribution suite offers Inventory Management, Purchase
Order and Sales Order. Manufacturing covers Bill of Materials,
Work Order and Material Requirements Planning. Additional modules
offer features such as direct deposit, bar coding, Fax and E-mail
integration, customer service, and many more. The power comes from
the integration of the modules, reducing duplicate entry and allowing
for immediate access to data from within the entire system. Produced
by Sage Software (formerly known in America as Best Software),
MAS 90 and MAS 200 are only available through VARs such as Blytheco
(www.blytheco.com) and Accounting Products (www.accounting-products.com),
etc.
