Greetings!
Kirill Tatarinov, corporate vice president of Microsoft Business Solutions,
has said that "people, process, and ecosystems working together" drive
businesses to be dynamic. Productive change, energized by the
synchronization of those three facets of a company, is what helps businesses
grow.
In financial times like these, and
at Thanksgiving, when we find ourselves feeling grateful for positive signs in
the economic landscape, it is critical to define that which drives our own
companies' dynamism.
We, at Custom Information
Services, hope to be a
catalyst in the dynamic direction of
your business. Please contact us when we
can be of assistance.
Regards,
Nancy Phillippi

| Why
ERP and Why Now? | |
The squeeze is on.
Companies across the globe are being pressed, twisted, and wrung out
like laundry as they try to survive in the present economical climate. And although panicked cost-cutting is the
typical response in a recession, it, alone, will not solve your problems. Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) may be the
one investment that sees you through, and beyond, the pinch.

| Microsoft Dynamics
vs. NetSuite: A Taste-Test Challenge |
|
 Do you remember the Pepsi Challenge? Beginning in 1975, Pepsi set out to prove to
Americans that they actually preferred Pepsi to the far-more-popular Coca-Cola
brand. Poured into two identical and
unlabeled cups, the caramel-colored liquid taste-test forced consumers to
ignore branding and reputation and judge only one thing: taste. Let's consider what a NetSuite Challenge
would look like. It, like Pepsi, is
trying to break into the market share of a software giant, Microsoft
Dynamics. And it, like Pepsi, has to
work to get potential clients to look beyond the stability and superiority
associated with the Microsoft Dynamics brand.
Will it work?

Motivate Your Employees |

The employer-employee relationship is fodder for
all types of comic writing. It's a

criticism, praise, compensation, and friendship. Satirists have made millions poking fun at
the many ways the mentor-mentee connection can go horribly wrong (think Steve
Carell on The Office). Here, we offer ten ways you can be the
most-loved manager in the industry while also increasing employee
productivity. Yes, you can do both. Read more.
