Sage MAS 90 and 200 3.71 Retirement Schedule Update

We are happy to announce the retirement schedule for 3.71 has been extended past the Sage MAS 90 and Sage MAS 200 ERP 4.2 release, expected in late 2006. Based on input from business partners and customers, upgrades to the current Sage MAS 90 and 200 4.x releases may take longer than previously expected. Sage will continue to monitor the MAS 90 and 200 4.x adoption rate over the coming months to determine the appropriate retirement timeframe.

What does that mean? Click here to find out!

Questions? Call us at 404.841.6240 or email us at info@mcginc.com. We'd love to hear from you!
