Yesterday... Today... Tomorrow...

We all have good reasons for relying on legacy systems today, in a world where the high-tech acronym of the moment seems to drive businesses to adopt the latest, but not the greatest, systems. Frankly your reasons have not changed, and the promises made by new software and hardware vendors have not been delivered. You are able to continue to operate today with “no business disruption”. Why not pause for a minute and realize that those of us running our businesses on legacy systems can continue to do so for at least the next five years – no need to rush to judgment – go ahead and consider your options, as you have been. After all, tomorrow’s technology will provide new opportunities and choices.

Finally... A Quick, Complete and Cost Effective Web-enabled e-Commerce Solution for CA-MANMAN^® Users!

1/22/2000 (Houston, TX) - Quantum Software Corporation is today re-launching XactMan™, a powerful, easy to use and install software solution. This software enables companies that operate their manufacturing enterprise on CA-MANMAN^® to upgrade to the latest technology in enterprise functionality; including web connectivity, e-commerce, and shopping cart capability.

Quantum Software's new CEO, Julie Brisker-Haymon, said in a recent interview, "It's about time. CA-MANMAN^® users have been begging for web connectivity and state-of-the art upgrades that would allow their enterprise to be fully web functional. We are delivering it-today." Brisker-Haymon went on to say, "We have found no company using CA-MANMAN^® to anywhere near its full potential. Nobody questions its viability as a core MRP system. Up until now, however, there have been NO cost-effective solutions to really connecting CA-MANMAN^® to the Internet in real-time, using XML protocol. XactMan is the only comprehensive solution available that allows CA-MANMAN^® users to get fully upgraded functionality, without the huge costs of retooling, uprooting the manufacturing operation, and having 'conversion trauma' of one to five years. This is truly a quantum leap for the legacy-computing world. In most cases, XactMan™ can be installed and operational in less than one week." Julie went on to say that, in the twenty years that she has been in the CA-MANMAN^® /Information Technology arena, this is the most incredible advance introduced to date.

"XactMan™ has been the best kept secret in the CA-MANMAN^® world. That is why we have decided to re-launch a product that can have such a profound impact on the community."
