MAS 90 and MAS 200
customers with current Best Subscription Plans will be
receiving FAS Asset Accounting Select Edition CD
beginning next week. This software is a benefit (at no
additional charge!) of your Subscription Plan, and allows
users to enter up to 100 assets and maintain them
indefinitely. The FAS link to the MAS General Ledger is
also included.
The unlocking keys for
the FAS Link are included with the CD shipment. To obtain
unlocking keys for FAS Select, use the faxback form in
your autoshipment. Contact MCG if you have any questions
about installing or registering FAS Select.
Remember: The Version 4.0
upgrade, expected in November, 2003, will be shipped to
all MAS 90 and MAS 200 customers on current Best
Subscription Plans. If your system has third-party
add-ons, programming modifications, or customized reports,
those will probably need to be upgraded to 4.0 with your
MAS 90 or MAS 200 system. As always, MCG can help you
evaluate and prepare for your upgrade. |

Welcome new customers!
Riverfront Packing, NGR, Inc., and Scott Groves.
We're happy to report that,
according to a recent Zoomerang survey sent to almost 600
customers, 72% of respondents were either "very satisfied" or
"extremely satisfied" with the service they received from MCG.
93% feel that MCG consultants know their system, and 85% agree
that "MCG representatives are responsive to customer needs."
However, 60% of respondents had NOT visited MCG's new and
improved website at www.mcginc.com. We appreciate your
participation in this survey, and we are committed to improving
our customer satisfaction ratings across the board - let us know
how we can improve at
info@mcginc.com, and take a look at www.mcginc.com! |
