Features

Customer Satisfaction

The eBusiness Manager module offers your customers the ability to place orders and to retrieve information about their account, such as open orders, invoices, and available credit. Because the Web site never closes, customers can get information when they need it instead of sitting on the phone or waiting for a call back.

Employee Efficiency

Your employees can use their time more efficiently; instead of typing orders into the system or relaying information to the customer by phone or e-mail, they can focus on other tasks. Also, because customers place their own orders, the accuracy of orders placed will increase.

Cost Effective

The eBusiness Manager module is designed to be implemented without requiring expensive Web or network consultants. It’s simple to set up, and can even be installed in a remotely hosted environment if you prefer not to maintain and manage your own Web server. Sage Software offers hosting services specifically designed to host the e-Business Manager application, allowing you to avoid the expense of maintaining your own in-house server. The modular design allows you to purchase the functionality that you need and lets you add functionality as your business grows.

Customizable

You can customize eBusiness Manager to fit your business in many ways. Numerous options within Sage 100 allow you to define images and text to display on the various Web pages. User-defined attachments may be linked to inventory items to provide information to site users. You can quickly and easily change the overall appearance of your site by applying one of the included style sheets, or you may create your own. Advanced customization features, such as the ability to specify the fields, including user-defined fields, that you wish to appear on the pages, are also available by using an HTML or text editor.
