Macola's Progression Series business management solutions, Accounting, Distribution, and Manufacturing, are designed to meet the business application software needs of the small to midsize enterprise. ADAPT and Macola target identical markets, which is the basis for our relationship, explained below.

A Companion Partner
Due to the obvious target market similarities, we made a strategic decision to bridge Macola Progression and ADAPT. In 1998, ADAPT Software joined Macola's Companion Partner Program, to ensure the success of what is now a tightly integrated, real-time interface. While ADAPT is not the only CRM solution that integrates with Macola, it is the only one to offer cost-effective, real-time integration to the Pervasive version of Progression.

Stated by Macola, the company's "success is ultimately founded on the success of our partnerships... Macola's Companion Solution Partners provide software and hardware that extend the core functionality of the Progression Series." Today, the Macola Accounting Plug-In for ADAPT does just that - extends the benefits of the Progression (Pervasive and MS-SQL versions) into the "front-office."
