Complying with PCI-DSS using Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200

Thursday, April 15th, 2010

Do you process credit cards? Do you use an integrated solution with Sage MAS90 or MAS200?

Sage North America has recently created a portal specific to this issue. Starting on July 1, 2010, all companies that store, process or transmit cardholder data must be PCI-DSS compliant. These new standards were created by an industry board (PCI Security Standards Council) to facilitate global adoption of consistent data security standards. It’s also known as PA-DSS.

I’m sure you’ve heard about the almost daily cases of companies computers getting hacked and credit card information being stolen. In older versions of MAS90/200, credit card data was merely stored like any other data and displayed on the screen for all to see. An employee could easily make note of these numbers or extract them to a file for illicit purposes. Over the years Sage has cracked down on how this data is both stored and displayed to make it more secure, including encrypting the data and only showing the last 4 digits of the number.

Accounting Software Shootout

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

We often get asked if we will do live software comparisons between leading ERP, accounting, distribution or manufacturing programs.

We’ve tried to do live scheduled seminars but have found there wasn’t enough interest in local companies coming out for a day to see this.

On our site, we have extensive information and demos on the leading solutions from Sage, Microsoft and SAP including Sage MAS90, MAS200, MAS500, Microsoft Dynamics NAV, AX, GP & SL as well as SAP Business One. The landing page is HERE.

We have often looked at individual prospect’s and client’s needs and shown more than one application for them and us to decide which is the best possible fit and this has worked out well in the end. That being said, if you would be interested in a live web based product shootout please email us at info@clientsfirst-us.com and if you could also post a comment below, and if enough interest exists, we’ll do a scheduled shootout.
