Cougar Mountain Software has rebranded and it has a newly designed website, which looks like it was put together by someone with red-blue color blindness. The top of the page starts with black followed what I describe a bilious green. But that’s a just a personal preference. The company’s new tag line, "Accounting software for growing businesses.” It also has posted some white papers including “Fulfilling CPA Needs.”

Skyytek, a Business ByDesign reseller, has refocused the company’s operations. Although it still actively sells the SAP product, the company is emphasizing “We have morphed more into a management consulting company,” says CEO Ray Tetlow. Nominally based in Miami, Fla., the company effectively operates from an office in Hockessin, Del., and it is getting rid of most locations. As leases expire, offices are being closed since most consultants operate from their homes. “My ideal solution would be zero offices but it’s not practical,” Tetlow says

In the newly aligned Microsoft awards, XAPT, was the ERP partner of the year and hardly a newcomer to awards. XAPT was the Dynamics AX Excellence Partner of the Year Award in 2006 and 2008. While it’s listed as a U.S. company in the press release, the XAPT web site shows it as a Hungarian company, owned by New Frontier Holding, with branches in the U.S. and other countries.

NETSUITE EXPANDS IN N.Z.

NetSuite has moved into the New Zealand market with a deal with Liberate I.T. You’d think this was a World War II announcement of an amphibious invasion as the press release speaks of Liberate as “a progressive firm liberating New Zealand businesses from I.T. hassles.” Liberate will provide implementation and support services and also has practices in wholesale/distribution, manufacturing, and professional services. Liberate is the child of a traditional ERP company, Soltius, which is otherwise an SAP house. Soltius handles Business 1, All-in-One, Business Objects, SAP ERP and NetWeaver. Its website does not, however, show Business ByDesign in the lineup. I am assuming this orientation has something to do with its creation of a unit to handle NetSuite.
