Exact Launches New Software Rental Program

11-11-2009

Exact now offers the only shop management software rental plan available for job shops

Exact SoftwareTM, a leading provider of business and manufacturing management solutions, has introduced a new rental program that provides job shops and contract / make-to-order manufacturers with full JobBOSS shop management and control functionality in exchange for a low monthly fee.

The Exact JobBOSS Rental Plan has been developed as an option for companies that need market-leading shop management software but have not yet justified the cost of purchasing a full-featured job shop software system outright.

Why would a job shop or contract manufacturer consider renting Exact JobBOSS?

• With the rental model, costs shift from a capital expenditure to operational budget, thereby reducing the investment risk.
• The cost of owning the system is spread out over the contract period, reducing start up costs.
• The low, up-front investment allows for nearly immediate ROI.
• Exact JobBOSS is market-leading job shop software for automating several aspects of managing a job shop, including job costing work cell scheduling, job estimating, and shop floor control.

"Investing in software is a step businesses must take as they develop," says Mitch Alcon, President of Exact Americas. "This program makes one of the best manufacturing software systems much more accessible to job shops that otherwise may not have been able to justify the investment."

Exact's monthly rental fee includes software, training, technical support, and all software upgrades. Exact offers contract terms ranging from 2-5 years with the option to renew upon expiration.
