Admiral Consulting Group has signed on to sell web-based project accounting applications from Beyond Software. Beyond is a son of Solomon, one of the Solomon Cloud Solutions companies owned by Solomon Software founders Gary Harpst, Jack Ridge, and Vern Strong, and based in the Solomon homeland of Findlay, Ohio.

Three applications stemming from the purchase of M5 in May are helping raise revenue for Acumatica and its resellers. Jon Roskill, CEO of the Bellevue, Wash.-based software company told research analysts recently that the company had expected the products would boost average selling prices by 6 percent to 7 percent. "And it's coming in ahead of that," Roskill commented.

Infor reported a 9.5-percent increase in revenue for the first quarter ended July 31. But the software company this week reported a loss of $25.4 million, compared to net income of $57.5 million in last year's corresponding period. A big factor in this was currency change.
