About aACE
aACE is a powerful, comprehensive business management solution designed for companies that have outgrown small-business packages and patchwork solutions or are frustrated by the poor performance of expensive ERP systems.
aACE’s core functionality includes:
• Accounting
• Customer Relationship Management (CRM)
• Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)
• Material Requirements Planning (MRP)
• Inventory Management
• Order Management
• Production Management
• Shipping and Receiving Management
• Calendar and Scheduling Management
As the letters in our name suggest, aACE unifies A-ccounting, C-ustomer relationship management, and E-nterprise resource planning into an integrated package. The accounting module provides completely auditable general ledger, payables, receivables, inventory and balance sheet capabilities. The CRM module allows users to manage relationships with vendors and partners, as well as monitor leads, sales, quotes and overall business performance. The ERP module integrates sales, operations and accounting tools. aACE also offers integrations with payment processing, email marketing, shipping, e-commerce, and other tools.
aACE offers on-premise, cloud-based, and browser-...
based business management software for small and midsize manufacturing, distribution, and professional services businesses. aACE is available with monthly subscription pricing. iOS mobile apps are also available. FLEXIBILITY aACE accommodates most client needs right out of the box. And because it is built on the Claris FileMaker platform, aACE can be customized easily, efficiently, and cost effectively. Each business has unique in-house expertise acquired during their years in business, and aACE makes it simple to translate those insights into custom apps that streamline processes, boost productivity, and maximize a company’s competitive advantage. VERSATILITY Our track record of enthusiastic customers spans a wide range of industries, including professional services, wholesale distribution, and light manufacturing. These organizations have as few as five and as many as 500 personnel. But they all share the same need for an integrated, cost-effective, cross-platform suite of business management software that is robust enough to support their entire operation — and that’s where aACE comes in. TESTIMONIALS aACE clients have called our solution “the best in everything,” “a major improvement over QuickBooks,” and “a critical component to the success of our company’s future.” We’re constantly hearing from our clients that their day-to-day operations have improved since implementing aACE. For example: - Derek Navratil from Essential Water Solutions Inc.: “[The aACE team] initially struck me as unique, refreshingly knowledgeable, and very in-tune with the modern demands of an ERP software package – solving problems with their software that no one else seemed to give a second thought.” - Daniel Chapman from Redd Remedies: “aACE software is easy to use, intuitive, logical, and easily customized. It is clear that the architecture of aACE has been very well thought out. We were able to automate some previously manual processes that is resulting in literally hundreds of saved labor hours each month." PAIN-POINTS SOLVED aACE offers a compelling alternative for business owners who question the ROI from other software: • Browser-based packages like NetSuite • Open-source packages like xTuple • Client/server packages like QuickBooks, Dynamics, and Sage aACE provides greater visibility, accuracy, and velocity in your operations, solving the inefficiencies and lost opportunities that arise from a software package not carefully fitted to your business’ unique needs.

Superior Software Partner

Using ERP software is similar to a marriage. It effects every aspect of the business. aACE is an excellent partner! Giving us the ability to test the software with their support for an extended period of time before the purchase sealed the deal. The opportunity to work with the developers during customization was priceless. They worked hand-in-hand on-site with us through every step of the implementation process. And the excellent support has continued after the implementation. This is a success story!

Reasons for choosing aACE
aACE was so much easier to work with even in the consideration phase. Imagine trying to implement a system with companies that could not even respond to your requests during the discovery phase. And, the opportunity to have a "sand box" to test prior to purchase sealed the deal. The aACE team made the difference - they are so customer-focused.
Reasons for switching to aACE
QuickBooks simply did not have the functionality our growing business needed.

aACE was a Critical Component to the Success of our Company's Future
5
I'm the IT administrator for our company. Coming off Quickbooks, we found that QB just wasn't offering us all the flexibility and horsepower we needed from an ERP. It needed to handle all the complexities of our day to day operations, give us the reports we needed, integrate into our existing process - and then fade into the background as everyone became comfortable with it to get the job done. aACE has done all that. It transformed our order fulfillment process during implementation by helping us see trouble spots in our processes. aACE was able to customize a few key components for us very intelligently that now just work. Exactly the way we need them to. Employee adoption was slow to start, like most ERP's, but now even our most technology-adverse employees use aACE as reliably as the notepad beside their mouse. Three years later, we're going strong and preparing to launch new initiatives to promote future growth. That process requires a lot of thought and preparation, but one thing we don't have to worry about is if aACE can handle it. There have been several occasions in our company strategy meetings where the question is asked "Can aACE do that?" and it's a pleasure every time when I get to say, "Yeah that's already built in." The software is intuitive, smart, and reliable. Sometimes I check my aACE server uptime just to see how long it's been since the last restart because we don't have issues with it. It just works for months on end. As a technology professional, I was sensitive to the aesthetics, workflow and usability of the software - all important qualities for it to be a "fade into the background" kind of solution. From first glance to present day, I'm continually impressed by how aACE works the way you expect it to. I've had a chance to demo the aACEv5 environment and on top of it being a welcomed face-lift, the attention to detail in new features and how existing features were improved is uncanny. You can tell the developers have an eye for detail and are not afraid to scrap, redo and improve. I can't wait to launch aACE 5 in our organization!

Reliable system
5
We have been using aACE since 2010. The system has proven time and again to be a structurally sound and reliable business information workhorse. Downtime is barely measurable, though we process thousands of transactions a day. Our specific workflows called for a flexible central platform that we could bolt on customized work-area specific tools. Implementing aACE, in the FileMaker environment, has proven to be the right solution to get us just that. The best testament to the system could be that at our 5 year business systems review, we decided to keep the existing aACE system and instead focus new development on our in-house built bolt-on modules. When the core is reliable, it frees us to innovate and develop better customized workflow improvements. We are happy with the aACE product. Users love the clean interface, speed, robust reporting and intuitive navigation. Having been partners with the aACE team for these many years, we have not been without difficulties. In 2010, I would have loved more how-to documentation and manuals, but I see the team has addressed this over the past few years. Our sometimes strange customization and sometimes incorrect requests have been consistently met with professionalism and an attitude of partnership for mutual success by the aACE team. They have been truly valued partners during a significant growth period in our company's history.

Matthew, thank you for the detailed review of aACE 4. This is exactly the kind of information prospective clients are looking for when they read reviews--we appreciate it very much. It's hard to overstate how significant an upgrade aACE 5 is relative to aACE 4. Trust me when I say that you have a lot to look forward to! Thanks Again, Michael

Reasons for switching to aACE
I needed to move the company off of a custom built, antique Filemaker solution (it predated my arrival 14 years ago and began life in Filemaker v3 ) and onto a robust, professional built and supported ERP. Closet Works has operated for over 30 years using software customized for how it does business. It is part of the culture. Any attempt to make the company conform to any "off-the-shelf" solution, regardless of how powerful, was doomed to failure. So I knew I wanted something that was powerful, but customizable and flexible...and built in Filemaker if at all possible. aACE fit the bill.
