Canada has always been a great market for xTuple, where we are proud to support our many users and dedicated partners. Now, more than ever, there is increased demand for a full-featured, integrated ERP solution that's customizable, flexible and affordable. xTuple has been modified to meet the requirements of Canadian tax regulations, and for our friends in Quebec, xTuple is nearly 100% translated into Canadian French.
Demand has reached a tipping point throughout Canada and the U.S., as other software vendors, particularly Sage, have announced the retirement of several once popular solutions.
Have you noticed a new addition to the top navigation of our xTuple.com homepage? This is an area we reserve (as do most companies) for the mostimportant, mostsought after information on our website. With the New Year, we've decided that alongside the very things that define us – our products and solutions – belongs a direct link to information about xTuple Partners: http://www.xtuple.com/partners
xTuple Partners fall into a few broad categories including: Value Added Resellers or VARs, Business Development, Technology and e-Commerce,
Each Partner type plays an important role in the xTuple ecosystem, and it's our Reseller or VAR Partners who are especially valued as sales, marketing and development extensions of our organization.
People often discover xTuple by searching phrases like "Quickbooks Alternative." It's interesting how few choices there are for companies who've outgrown entry level accounting packages like Quickbooks or Peachtree but don't have (or want to spend) $100,000+ on mid-market solutions like Microsoft Dynamics, Sage or Epicor.

Once a year, we schedule our two most popular training classes, Implementing and Managing xTuple and Power User Training, in back-to-back weeks in an effort to make our training more accessible for the many people traveling great distances to join us. Once a year, users and partners alike come from all parts of the world to pack in as much xTuple information as possible, all in one trip!
Well, this year we've made it even easier and more exciting by holding our August training event in Washington D.C.! For many, this means a more direct trip, especially if you're flying. There are two major airports to choose from, and we've negotiated a discounted room rate at the same hotel where the training will be held, the Hilton Garden Inn Arlington/Courthouse Plaza. Located one block from the D.C. metro and easily accessed from either of the two airports, it's a convenient and centrally located hotel option.
Back by popular demand, our most requested remote training event on OpenRPT. If you're interested in learning how to make cosmetic changes to reports, add fields to existing reports, create custom reports and much more, you don't want to miss this class! The class will run in two three-hour sessions back-to-back later this month.
OpenRPT, the free report writer software that comes with all xTuple editions and is available as a standalone product, is a powerful tool for generating reports from your xTuple data.
Join xTuple's Director of Product Training, Mike Atherton, for this unique remote training course which starts with a review of the basics of the industry-standard Structured Query Language (SQL) and concludes with the creation of a new ad hoc report using OpenRPT.
In addition to our awesome classroom training sessions including the upcoming 202 Advanced Topics class, xTuple will be offering a Web-based Training event every month of this year. This is a terrific opportunity for you to take a deep dive into all sorts of functional areas of the application. Each session will be lead by an expert on that particular topic from the xTuple community, partner group or xTuple itself. Check the xTuple Events Page often for updates and additions to the Web-Based Training event schedule. Read more »

Here at xTuple, on a wall behind our support team are maps with lots of colored pins. We have a detailed map of the United States and a World map. The world map isn't new but many of the pins in it are. The pins signify partners and customers. Kind of 'old school' but fun, in a non-techy sort of way!
Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) is a significant factor in choosing an Enterprise Resource Planning solution. But it's another one of those TLA's (Three Letter Acronyms) that not everyone seems to completely understand.
So what do I mean by TCO? It's the sum of all the costs associated with implementing a major software application. You should factor in not only the cost of the software (if you're purchasing a commercial license), but also any additional costs which may follow as a result of your decision (whether you know it or not). Carefully reviewing the details of an ERP purchase may uncover “hidden costs” in acquiring and operating software that might otherwise not be apparent.
