O.K., it's not that kind of pledge. Blytheco has pictures of its employees signing a pledge of allegiance to the reseller's new direction as the company launched Blytheco 3.0.

NETSUITE PICKS UP VARS DOWN UNDER
- Tuesday, 26 June 2012
- News and Analysis
- Written by mark
NetSuite has signed two Australian VARs as the online vendor continues to expand its channel. The new channel members are Precise Business Solutions (www.precisebusiness.com.au) of Perth and Cloud ERP (www.cloud-erp.com.au) of Melbourne. Precise sells Epicor manufacturing products and I think we are picking up a theme here about Epicor. The company employs more than 30 and has about 160 clients. Cloud ERP is described as having implemented many ERP systems in the wholesale distribution industry over the last 15 years. I am guessing that there must have been a predecessor company.

Nonprofit accounting software vendor AccuFund has acquired the cloud-based Outreach Suite, a fundraising and CRM package. AccuFund, based in Needham, Mass., plans to re-brand the acquired product as AccuFund CRM. In the context of fundraising, CRM stands for constituent relationship management. But from a practical point of view, it covers much of the same territory that CRM does for the for-profit world. The Outreach Suite runs on the Force.com platform. AccuFund has developed an integration between the two packages. AccuFund CRM enables non-profits to fund-raising activities such as forecasting and managing donors, pledges and contributions, and incorporate those activities with general accounting processes by dynamically linking to the AccuFund General Ledger and Cash Receipts modules. Based in Monument, Colo., Outreach Suite was headed by managing partner, Jim Gifford.Read more...
