Alexander Street Press
Since it was founded, Alexander Street Press has paid out more than $1million in royalties to members of the creative community and other copyright holders, a number that continues to climb each year.
Alexander Street Press, L.L.C. was founded in May 2000 with the goal of bringing together the skills of traditional publishing, librarianship and software development to create quality electronic publications.
THE SOLUTION
In June of 2005, Tanya Walls, Accounting Manager at Alexander Street Press, began to research a more robust ERP solution and found Microsoft Dynamics™ GP to be a perfect fit. “Dynamics was a product I had used before at another company, and I was aware that it could handle the more complex accounting and distribution tasks I desperately needed”. As Tanya searched further, she discovered that Eclipse had a solution for her royalty accounting that worked within Dynamics. “Once I saw how the Eclipse Royalty & Rights Management System integrated into Dynamics, I knew this was the ideal solution for our needs.”
Alexander Street Press made a decision to purchase the entire suite of products. During the ensuing weeks, Eclipse assisted with the installation and conversion from QuickBooks to Dynamics. Once the core software was working, the Eclipse Royalty & Rights Management System was activated. “We needed Eclipse to add a few features to the software in order for it to work for our purposes. They did a great job delivering our solution, and now we are fully automated, allowing us to save hundreds of hours per month by using an automated royalty accounting system.”
“Eclipse continues to assist us whenever we have new requirements or need to manage new information. I am very pleased with their ability to work with my staff in keeping pace with new business requirements.”
