Sage Software Starts Shipping Sage Master Builder Version 12 with New Reporting Capabilities and Improved Licensing Process
First Release of Master Builder Since Product Was Acquired From Intuit® in May 2006 Paves Way for Continued Enhancements
Beaverton, Ore. - Sept 19, 2006 - Sage Software announced today the availability of Sage Master Builder Version 12, with new reporting capabilities via an Executive Dashboard that now gives business owners the ability to quickly check the overall health of their company at a glance, with instant access to information such as cash balance, cash position, job status and change orders. The new version also offers an improved, faster licensing process.
Sage Master Builder is an award-winning, fully integrated construction business management solution that links key areas of a construction company's business: estimating, production/project management, accounting, analysis and reporting into one integrated process.
Since acquiring the product from Intuit in May 2006, Sage Software has re-engineered Master Builder to maintain all of its historical, rich features and functionality, while improving performance and adding a new key reporting tool that fulfills a long-standing request of existing clients.
"This release paves the way for us to continue to add value to the latest addition to our portfolio of market-leading products for the construction and real estate industries, immediately improving our Master Builder clients' return on investment," said John Geffel, Sage Software senior vice president and general manager, Construction and Real Estate division.
Highlights of Sage Master Builder Version 12 include:
The Executive Dashboard: Senior company management can check the overall health of their business at a glance with instant access to information from a single location, including business metrics such as cash balance, cash position, company profitability, job status and change orders. Once an executive identifies something on the dashboard they want to understand and investigate further, they can quickly and easily drill down for more details directly from the dashboard.
Improved licensing: Version 12 maintains the benefits of concurrent use licensing, but now makes the process faster. The new method allows customers to change users or add users quickly and easily.

Sage Master Builder Version 12 is now available from authorized Sage Master Builder business partners. For pricing and to locate a Sage Master Builder business partner, call 1-800 628-6583 or log on to www.sagemasterbuilder.com.
