Business Activity Monitoring
A Smoke Detector for Your Business! Every organization has critical information and transactions that need monitoring: a prospect who has not been followed-up with; a contract that is about to expire; a pricing error. Sage KnowledgeSync monitors all your business data – within your Sage Software applications, and beyond. Providing every organization with much-needed exception management, Sage KnowledgeSync identifies and responds to conditions that fall outside of an organization’s standard operating procedures and enables organizations to avoid saying “If only we had known.”

Sage Knowledgesync Professional Edition is a simplified, email-alerts version of KnowledgeSync and - best of all - the Professional Edition is free to all Sage Software users. Clients pay only a minimal annual Maintenance and Support fee to receive their license. For more information, contact us at .

Automatic Form, Document and Report Delivery
Most organizations spend far too much time manually creating, distributing, and delivering various forms, documents, and reports to both their internal employees and external clients and partners. Sage KnowledgeSync automates both the production and delivery of such documents, whether it’s sending quotes, invoices, or letters to clients, or distributing analytical reports to an organization’s own managers and executives. Using the industry-standard Crystal Reports, Sage KnowledgeSync generates forms and documents when needed – or when business conditions demand it – and delivers this information to the right people at the right time.

Intelligent Workflow and Business Process Automation
Sage KnowledgeSync does more than just send alerts; it triggers “workflow” to update your applications, schedule intelligent tasks, and move information between an organization’s disparate software systems. Whether it’s to update a client’s history based on the receipt of an email message from them, or to schedule a phone call for a prospect who has not been contacted within the last week, Sage KnowledgeSync gives organizations the means to automate (and monitor) critical business processes.

  Synchronize data between multiple business applications and identify inconsistencies between databases.
