jBASE reduces End-of-Month process by 30% on existing hardware and enables Maynard Auto Supply to take their business to the next level without changing its physical configuration - Strategy 7’s tools and utilities combined with jBASE’s high degree of compatibility streamlines the move from UltPlus to jBASE without retraining users

Dallas, TX/ Newport Beach, CA — Burlington, VT — April 12TH, 2006 Strategy 7 Corporation, a national value-added reseller for Multi-Value and Relational Databases and the leading provider of quality IT solutions to the automotive aftermarket, has just completed a successful conversion for Maynard Auto Supply which has recently moved from UltPlus to jBASE. Maynard reports that the migration went smoothly and that all business functions are operating as expected including the electronic catalog and Nuway electronic pricing. Maynard also reports that the performance of their software over jBASE is much faster than when the applications ran over UltPlus. Maynard is running on the same hardware and has not changed the physical configuration of the hardware for jBASE.

"We are extremely pleased with the performance and capability of the system and we are already preparing to take advantage of some of the new advanced functionality offered by jBASE," comments Richard Swanson, IT Director from Maynard Auto Supply. "jBASE looks and feels to our end users just like Ultimate and that was key to the success of our move. Users did not have to be retrained. Today, the only difference reported by end users and managers is that the system is much faster! For example, our End-Of-Month process used to run in approximately 90 minutes on UltPlus and now runs in about 60 minutes on jBASE."

"Strategy 7 developed migration tools to make our transition from UltPlus as pain free as possible. I highly recommend that anyone currently running UltPlus take a look at jBASE and Strategy 7".

Bruce Decker of Strategy 7 Corporation states, "We are very pleased with the results we achieved with Maynard. It seems that word of mouth travels quickly in the auto aftermarket and we are already engaged in two more conversions with inquiries coming in daily. The migration tools we developed for the Maynard project significantly reduce the time and effort needed to migrate from UltPlus. One of the keys of our success at Maynard is a tool that we created that allows us to repeatedly refresh data from the Ultimate to the jBASE system within minutes. This allows us to run tests then reset the data quickly and run tests again from the original data sets. For example, the customer can run end of month, check the results then reset the data and run end of month again as many times as they wish to be confident that the results are accurate and ready for cut-over. This eliminates tedious and time consuming manual testing and greatly speeds the migration."
