Onza/BestTechsNW is offering a two-hour FREE CONSULTING special
Onza/BestTechsNW is offering a two-hour FREE CONSULTING special. We appreciate our clients very much and in this economy everyone is looking to save time and money. Our clients have been good to us for a long time and we want to reward your loyalty with a pay-back of our own. During the balance of 2010 we are offering to provide you with two hours of FREE consulting time and USEFUL software!!!
A number of bloggers and developers (and Microsoft) create interesting enhancements and tools they provide free of charge. Below is a brief summary of the free tools and free software options from Onza/BestTechsNW for the balance of 2010.
Email amanda and let her know which tools you’d like and she’ll get a consultant scheduled. The first 2 hours onsite to install and configure are FREE! Any additional hours required will be billed a full rate. The estimated hours to install will depend on the tool and how many users/workstations you have.
If you are using a terminal server to provide user-access to GP we will install these on that server in addition to the SQL server where Microsoft Dynamics GP resides. If your systems are user-PC-installed we will provide training for your support staff to install the same tools and software options on your user’s PC’s.
Please circle your current Microsoft Dynamics GP Version: GP 10 GP2010
Note: Since support for Microsoft Dynamics GP Version 9 ends early in 2011 it doesn’t make too much sense to install these tools for Version 9. Please call and schedule your update and we will install your choices at that time.
