Success Stories: Upgrades
Hydroelectric Power
Essex Power Services, Inc. Relies Confidently on Paragon Software Solutions for New Financial Management System
For over 30 years, Essex Power Services has been developing hydroelectric power service plants in New England and New York. For several years, Essex Power had been using Microsoft® Small Business Manager for running its financials. Now they needed a new cost effective, efficient financial management system. Paragon:
- talked Essex Power through the pros, cons and various options available to upgrade their system;
- worked with Essex Power to plan out the step-by-step conversion strategy;
- migrated their customized financial statements from Small Business Manager onto the new Dynamics platform, closed the books, and conducted the actual conversion; and
- also set up training on the new system before the conversion so Essex could hit the ground running - immediately.
In four short weeks, Essex had a new server, three new desktops for accounting and a fully functioning, up-todate financial management system with:
- Microsoft Dynamics® GP version 10
- SQL Reporting Services
- Excel Reporting
- Windows Server 2008
- SQL Server 2008
Retail - Food Services
Paragon Software Solutions Implements Microsoft Dynamics® GP Financial Management System for High Country Investor, Inc. d/b/a Hilltop Steak House & Marketplace
High Country Investor, Inc. operates three businesses including one restaurant and butcher shop in Saugus, Massachusetts and a butcher shop in Weymouth, Massachusetts. The restaurant has served over 50 million meals since 1961. The company was utilizing an older Microsoft accounting system and server that lacked functionality required to manage its accounting processes most efficiently.
Now, the perishable-food business utilizes the high-efficiency system to keep pace with the volume of transactions and cut 200-300 vendor checks weekly.
