From The Desk of Steve Buege

I am pleased to bring this edition of Exchange Magazine to you, our valued clients and partners. There is no question that we are facing challenging and uncertain economic times but in the midst of all of this we at Elite are taking every measure to come through these difficult times an even stronger and more enterprising company. We are dedicated to our client and partners, and also dedicated to offering products and services that are essential elements to your success.

The 2009 User conference is just around the corner and this year’s event will not disappoint. We have two conferences in one so that you can focus on what software your firm uses — Enterprise or 3E. We’ve also added more in-depth and technical training, including Elite 3E and Elite Enterprise Boot Camps for a complete interactive learning experience. You won’t want to miss this year’s event. In light of the current economic situation, we know it’s imperative that you get the most out of your Elite software. To help you meet your budgetary challenges, we have deeply discounted registration fees for individual and multiple attendees. 

In this edition of Exchange Magazine, read about how 3E Intercompany Billing delivers multi-currency capabilities to allow firms to easily track and manage activity on a global scale. A new tool is also now available in Reporting Essentials. The Finance Department Edition offers the full reporting capabilities of Reporting Essentials but with a limited named number of licensed users. New enhancements are being offered in ProLaw v11.11 that will make it easier to organize and file information to specific matters and capture more billable time. Other new and exciting tools are also available in Enterprise 3.8. User defined fields allow firms to streamline their financial management when processing invoices.

Read about how the successful partnership between Elite and Clarity Systems has led to the integration of the Clarity 6 financial reporting and consolidation solution in Elite Enterprise. You’ll also learn about our client Osborn Reed & Burke who believe their industry success and longevity comes from adopting current technology. To continue to stay ahead of the pack and meet their clients’ expectations they implemented ProLaw and have benefited from its integrated and automated capabilities.

I hope you enjoy the articles and items on these pages. Please feel free to contact us if you have any suggestions or questions about the Exchange magazine.
