Don't feel bad...every person on this list has some dirty laundry.  It's
amazing how many of us have rode the economic roller coaster from such
heights to such lows.  Makes me wonder,  is there any other profession that
has such extremes?

A garbage man isn't subjected to corporate takeover woes or such extremes in
monetary compensation

I meant to only send this to debster.  But I forgot to change the address.
I didn't mean to air dirty laundry in public.  Doh......

I know they have several products, but have very little interest in them
since I have so much experience in M2K.  So, um.... Avante uses U2 or UV?

I wonder if that's the "glorified jobshop" that my friend alluded to?

All I know is that they bought ROI Systems in 07/03 and all the old timer
ROI employees *HATE* working for them and have or are getting ready to jump
ship...they say I'm the lucky one since I got laid off and got a
compensation package, whereas they have had to put up with the huge
corporate treatment of 'programmers as worker bees' mentality and are now
quitting and receiving no package.

I was a work-from-home 1,200 miles away from the office and was temporarily
disabled with an elbow injury so severe that the doctors almost amputated.
So when Epicor acquired ROI, I got the golden boot to the rear.  Almost sued
under the ADA, but I had an empty bank account and had to take the
compensation package or risk loosing my house. :-0 !!!

But that's ok, as Ann Landers used to say 'time wounds all heals'.....  ;-)

Hi Will,

You mean, like the epicor product that uses u2? (which I believe Manage-2000
is the only one). Or the epicor product that uses SQL? I have little
knowledge of that one but an associate says it's a very poor substitute for
M2K.

His exact words:"I know their glorified jobshop package won't do diddly for
m2k folk used to an mrp engine."

(Manage-2000 abbreviated is M2k)

If you're interested in M2k, I used it in a production distribution
environment from 1988 to 1999, and still specialize in
programming/consulting for that product.  It's a very big system.  Over 800
menus!

Allen

Is anyone on this list an Epicor user ?  I have a client who is examining
Epicor as a possible solution to part of what they need and would like some
input.
Thanks
