CAL Business Solutions Launches "CAL Marketplace" to Connect Microsoft Dynamics GP Users with ISV/Add On Products

    HARWINTON, CT, October 01, 2011 /24-7PressRelease/ -- CAL Business Solutions, a Connecticut based ERP/accounting software partner, announces the launch of the CAL Marketplace - an online directory of ISV/Add on solutions for Microsoft Dynamics GP at www.calszone.com/marketplace. This site is intended to help CAL clients and Microsoft Dynamics GP users easily find ISV/add on solutions recommended by the CAL Business Solutions team to enhance their Microsoft Dynamics GP systems.

Visitors to the CAL Marketplace can browse by ISV companies, by products, by industries, and by business categories. Each product page includes details of the product plus links for resources, demos, current offers and even customer reviews. The initial launch of the site includes 28 Microsoft Dynamics ISV companies and 115 separate add on products for Microsoft Dynamics GP.

While there are hundreds of Microsoft Dynamics add on products available, CAL Business Solutions chose to include only ISV products that the company has installed or worked with for current clients and feels confident in recommending to others. Additional products will be evaluated and added regularly.

"We felt it was important to give our clients one location to get information about the specific ISV/add on products we recommend for Microsoft Dynamics GP. As their business partner, they look to us to provide advice on enhancements that will improve their business processes. Now there is one central up to date online directory we can point them to at all times," says Anya Ciecierski, Director of Marketing, CAL Business Solutions.

Many of the solutions featured on the CAL Marketplace have the Certified for Microsoft Dynamics designation. This new designation by Microsoft gives buyers confidence that the products have undergone a strict testing and verification process and are required to have the same release schedule as Microsoft Dynamics GP.

"Microsoft Dynamics GP gives our clients strong core financial functionality. But we recommend ISV products if there is a process that could be done better or faster with an ISV module, the client needs some industry specific functionality that is unique to their business or we feel they could save money on the total system by replacing a full user Dynamics GP license. Our firm has a reputation of giving honest advice to our clients and this includes recommending ISV products when it is the best solution," comments George Mackiewicz, President of CAL Business Solutions.

Additional details can be found on the CAL Marketplace Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page.

All Microsoft Dynamics GP users and financial professionals in the ERP/accounting software selection process are invited to visit www.calszone.com/marketplace today.
