It was just a post by one person on the Microsoft Dynamics Community site, a statement that GP isn’t dead and there’s a lot coming in the next release.

Martijn Janmaat, CEO of Exact, the parent of the Macola line, has said he would not seek to extend his stay in the position past the one year that he said he would serve. Janmaat, who was on the software vendor’s supervisory board, found himself thrust into the position in August 2010 after the job’s prior occupant, Raj Patel, left after five years. The best way to phrase it is that Janmaat set about cleaning up the mess that was left behind, which included an aging product line with no plans for moving some key applications forward and a company that was spread too thinly across the world.

Deltek has released a new version of Maconomy Analytix, a business intelligence application for professional services firms. The product utilizes technology from Business Objects, the SAP BI product. It has live business reporting and an intuitive ad hoc query tool and when I read the press release and visited the website, I ended with no clear idea of what is new in this version.

Cyma Systems has introduction Cyma Business Insight, an Excel-based payroll and HR financial reporting system. It’s another step along the new path that Cyma embarked on last year when it said it would concentrate on payroll and HR, instead of general accounting. Business Insight connects Excel with Cyma’s payroll and HR database to enable users to extract information for reporting and analysis. The new Cyma application was developed through a relationship with BizNet Software, which offers Excel-based reporting and analytics applications. Cyma said the product was customized for its product line. In September, Cyma signed on to resell the BizNet Excel Business Information Suite as part of its new direction.

Early this month, Arxis Technology, a Sage reseller based in Simi Valley, Calif., made Mark Severance, director of sales and marketing, a principal in the firm. For Severance, who joined the company in mid-2000, it was not just a matter of personal advancement. It was part of a process by principals David Cieslak and Bob Gaby to develop leadership from its ranks. And it’s something that a lot of VARs don’t do, even if they have resources to mount such a program.

Vision33 has emerged as one of the largest U.S. B1 resellers by acquiring other VARs, including Omega Business Systems in 2009.
