ReadyCloud & aACE Announce New End-to-End XaaS Integration

“The aACE integration with ReadyCloud allows businesses to take advantage of state-of-the-art solutions for accounting, inventory, and shipping in one seamless user experience,” explained Michael Bethuy, President of aACE Software. “Because information flows smoothly between the two solutions, aACE is able to automate invoicing, and since ReadyCloud provides aACE with the true cost of each shipment, entering and reconciling courier bills is a breeze. Streamlining these processes adds up to a lot of savings for our clients.”

The aACE integration for ReadyCloud significantly reduces the need for manual data entry, a common source of costly errors. For most shipments, this time-consuming task is eliminated entirely; shipments are auto-generated in aACE based on the sales order and automatically appear in ReadyCloud when they’re ready to be shipped. Once the tracking numbers and shipping costs have been determined by ReadyCloud, that information is imported back into aACE. This automatically generates an invoice reflecting the true shipping cost with any applicable markup for handling.

Another source of great frustration for many companies is entering and reconciling courier bills. The aACE+ ReadyCloud integration makes this superfluous:

“Rather than manually entering the courier bill at the end of each month, aACE allows users to see all of the shipments they haven’t yet purchased at a glance with our Build Courier Invoice feature. With one click, aACE organizes each of these shipments, including costs and tracking information for easy, line-by-line comparison with the courier’s statement,” Bethuy said. 

The integration also helps users reconcile billing, as well as find and eliminate costly errors:

“If the cost of a shipment on the courier’s bill doesn’t match the cost in aACE, the user can change it in the purchase,” Bethuy added. “That change will go back and update the shipment, which, in turn, updates the order, so that the costs are correct. aACE can also be configured to send a notification to an oversight group if the difference exceeds a certain value or percentage, ensuring companies can keep their shipping costs in check.”

aACE Software Celebrates 15 Years in Business

This vision means software is more than the easiest means to an end; aACE 5 is a finely crafted instrument that enriches client operations. aACE developers have worked with dozens of clients in various industries to refine this product. It is built from the workday experiences of SMEs across the country. To celebrate our 15th anniversary, aACE Software says thanks to some of the companies who helped aACE 5 fulfill the vision of Art in ERP.

Janibell (formerly known as Sinclair Worldwide) — This company switched from Windows to Mac and found that aACE offers the best of both worlds. Janibell President Bumkee Kim: "aACE is a great all-around package that also offers flexibility and excellent design. The aACE user interface features a clean layout and shows that much thought and care went into the development of the software. We feel confident that aACE will serve Janibell for a long time."

Vacutherm, Inc. — Even after this company's first 30 years in business, aACE helped them find ways to grow revenue by 800%. Vacutherm President and Owner Jim Parker: "The implementation was flawless and respectful of our need to continue operating. It couldn’t have gone better. Even though we had many systems to integrate, the importation of our data was easy and the entire process was smooth and professional. I’ve never experienced as easy an implementation of anything like I experienced with the aACE team. I have recommended aACE to many of the manufacturers I work with in this industry and others. I think it could work for almost any type of business."

Restylers’ Choice — With aACE, this company achieved a 90% decrease in declined credit cards, eliminated 1 full day of accounting work each month, and freed up 2,000 square feet of warehouse space. Restylers’ Choice President Doug Jacobs: "Looking back at our transition to aACE, I realize how smooth the process went. Having been on our past system for more than 10 years, you know there are going to be problems and pains in transition. I had trusted advisors warn me that it would require years to 'get comfortable' with the new system. The reality is that we were up, running, and processing orders very easily the first day of business on aACE."

aACE Software wishes all clients and partners a happy anniversary — we couldn’t have made aACE a world-class solution without you. Here’s to 15 more years of Art in ERP!

aACE Software announces its expansion to Boise, Idaho

Boise office becomes HQ for general operations, while Manhattan office specializes in R&D

BOISE, Idaho - Sept. 12, 2017 - PRLog -- aACE Software is proud to announce its new headquarters in Boise, Idaho, marking an expansion for the company after 15 years in Manhattan. Boise will be the new location for the company's general operations, including core product development, technical support, documentation, and administration. The Boise Valley Economic Partnership has compiled a list of recent accolades for the region that make the value of this expansion clear. Publications such as Forbes, Vogue, and CNBC have recognized Boise as an outstanding place to live and work.

Says aACE Software Founder and President Michael Bethuy, "I moved back home to Boise in 2015, and thanks to the reduced expenses I was able to hire an additional full-time developer. We're a self-financed company, so the lower costs make a big difference. The stability of a family-oriented region like the Treasure Valley also helps us reduce employee turnover. It's important to us that our staff is able to learn and grow within the company so that we can offer our clients the benefits of knowledgeable, experienced representatives. And the presence of large organizations like Hewlett-Packard and Micron will ensure that we have a ready pool of seasoned, tech-savvy workers to recruit from as we grow."

New York City was the starting point of the aACE 5 vision for Art in ERP, and the Manhattan office will continue to play a crucial role with a primary emphasis on sales and R&D. This syncs well with the unique creative culture of Manhattan. Ongoing innovations in the aACE Software business suite will expand our selection of mobile apps and third-party integrations.

aACE Software is excited to bring its vision of artisan software to the growing Boise technology scene. Joining with the Boise Chamber of Commerce and the Idaho Technology Council and Software Alliance we are dedicated to promoting success in the region. The synergy between our Manhattan and Boise offices will help us continue to achieve our vision of Art in ERP.

Redd Remedies Upgrades from NetSuite to aACE 5

Recommended by Vital Planet, another midsize nutrition company that has been using aACE for over two years, aACE was endorsed as the solution to typical problems with NetSuite: un-intuitive design, labor-intensive reports, and disproportionate costs. Redd Remedies investigated the notable benefits that aACE offers, then decided this new provider was a much better match. They moved forward to deploy aACE 5 on an aggressive timeline. In only two months, they were able to go-live, enjoying a seamless transition to the FileMaker-based, cross-platform business management software for Mac and PC.

Redd Remedies Founder and CEO Dan Chapman says, “We have been able to reduce order entry errors, minimize order approval due to built-in double checks and accuracy of promotions/campaigns, and drastically improve our ship time from order entry to out-the-door. aACE is already helping us save hundreds of labor-hours each month.”

aACE Software CEO Michael Bethuy says, "Redd Remedies is a great example of the SMEs that aACE 5 is designed to accelerate. We offer a compelling alternative for businesses dependent on browser-based solutions like NetSuite, open-source solutions like xTuple, or client/server solutions like QuickBooks, Dynamics, and Sage.”

aACE was able to accommodate a majority of Redd Remedies' needs right out of the box. The remaining needs represented in-house expertise they had acquired after many years in business, and aACE's easy customization allowed them to codify those learnings to maximize their competitive advantage.
