2012 is gone ... but give us one last moment to have a peek at the Microarea blog to find out what were the most popular articles issued last year!

by the Marketing Department

Even during last year, the Microarea website  was a valuable point of reference for users, partners and visitors. The Microarea Blog was indeed a crucial intersection of information able to highlight the many new features of Mago.net, generate a widespread attention on topics of general interest while presenting specific solutions for every need and emphasize the importance of keeping your ERP software up to date.

We believe that in 2013 the trend will be the same and this is why we have come up with a small ranking of the most treasured issues in 2012 within the Microarea Chronicles, this in order to satisfy the approval ratings for the blog and make the newsletter even more interesting and useful. Hereunder are the most "popular" and appreciated topics according to the “readers”.

In third place, the subject related to Business Intelligence, brought to the fore by the InfoBusiness Connector for Mago.net, the module that acts as a bridge with the operational BI Zucchetti solution InfoBusiness, thus ensuring access to the world of Business Intelligence for an accurate, clear and immediate picture of the corporate dynamics. The subject was also integrated with the video dedicated to InfoBusiness Connector on the Microarea YouTube channel, created and "aired" to offer a full and entertaining communication!

In second place the Spesometro (tax communication module) for Mago.net, a great help to unscramble the obligations resulting from the change in tax law that the Italian government has set in place starting from April 2012. The Spesometro for Mago.net, which is worth saying was already available from 2011, was the subject of an informative article published on the Microarea blog in March, allowing many to promptly satisfy their fiscal requirements.

And finally, ladies and gentlemen, in first place, the major update dated January 2012: Mago.net version 3.6. The update was characterized by substantial improvements in all areas and enriched with new useful features (including the Credit Line Management module). The Microarea website visitors are well aware and able to identify which new features are able to generate new opportunities, as shown by this pole position!

Microarea is committed to ensuring thorough and updated information. In 2013 make sure you visit our website in order to find out all the latest news, updates, curiosities, and the countless useful information specifically designed for your business.

Perfetto is the software based on Mago.net that Antos created to manage the jobs in companies installing Technological Systems. The Microarea Platinum Partner offers a perfect solution that includes all necessary functions to keep control of the plant engineering dynamics: through the availability of real-time information, Perfetto allows making quick decisions, solving the job management problems.

The point of strength of Perfetto is the Job Control Panel, an innovative tool that allows you to visualize in real-time and in graphical format all the information on the economic status and progress of the operations. Thanks to the intuitive and comprehensive interface, the engineer with a single glance can see all the relevant data for the optimal management of the job, information drawn from the management documents (orders, delivery notes, invoices, reports, etc. ...).

Perfetto, thanks to its full merging with Mago.net, allows intuitively controlling costs and revenues, displaying in real time the economic margin for both the individual project, as well as for groups of orders (consolidated gross turnover). The areas in which the vertical Antos ensures full and optimal control are several and diverse, including the efficiency of the labor force, the management of suppliers and warehouse materials, the administration of receipts and payments, the budgeting, general accounting and balance of payments.

Perfetto is simple to use and provides reliable data that is easy to read and understand. The Datachecker function allows verifying the project order details, ensuring that the latter have been properly filed and identifying any input errors or incorrect use of management procedures. Consequently, correcting document errors becomes easy, and this allows obtaining always reliable and certified information. The versatility of Datachecker is proved by the fact that it can be installed also exclusively for the ERP modules (with or without the job management of Perfetto).

Perfetto is available in two versions, the Yellow and Orange Pack, addressing respectively the management of the job or the tout court company, yet both perfectly fitting to the standard quality level of Mago.net. Perfetto is part of the Perfetto suite (containing Perfetto.Net and Perfetto ERP) management products created by Antos, based on Mago.net, and designed to manage companies having different dimensions, different organizational structures and requirements. 

Small and large size plant engineering companies identify the Antos product Perfetto as the perfect ally for the preventive checkup of the job projects, this thanks to a superior control and organization: these factors can improve the quality of the company's work towards employees and customers.
