SYSPRO
Brochure Summary
The brochure literature
that was provided by SYSPROs management team was bound in a very nice
leather zipper case along with an official SYSPRO mouse pad which I can
add to my 3 foot high collection. Typically I find that all accounting
software brochures contain 20% important information cluttered by 80% puff
and extraneous claims. My intentions are not to regurgitate the entirety
of the brochure content here, but I found the following tidbits of
information interesting to me. Here you go:
