A comprehensive usability test of Sage Software's highly-anticipated MAS Extended Enterprise Suite has been performed by Mahoney Software and will now extend testing to one of its most high-profile clients, Trion:Z. Providing small and medium businesses the tools to outperform their competitors, the MAS Extended Enterprise Suite is a fully-integrated software bundle. Trion:Z, due to its rapid growth and prominence in the golf accessories market, provides an ideal proving ground for the premier business management suite.

At the annual conference for vendors and Sage business partners, Insights, Sage Software announced the release of its MAS Extended Enterprise Suite. Providing a fully integrated set of tools to manage sales and marketing, support, operations, and accounting, Sage, responding to the needs of small and medium businesses, bundled its MAS ERP with SageCRM and Fixed Assets. By enhancing internal communications, improve customer relationships, and manage marketing efforts internally, the Extended Enterprise Suite allows businesses to improve efficiency.

Mahoney Software, as an existing reseller of both the MAS ERP and SageCRM software, was an ideal candidate to test the new Extended Enterprise Suite. Mahoney Software, after completing the first round of testing, approached Trion:Z about testing the Extended Enterprise Suite to manage their burgeoning distribution business. Trion:Z has used the Sage MAS 90 ERP and Sage ACT! contact manager to manage the company since its inception. Trion:Z Chief Operating Officer, Jim Uno, declared: "By upgrading ACT! to SageCRM, we are adding a more robust, powerful tool to manage our sales process and customer support."
