SBT Corporation's accounting computer software for the Macintosh, Mac/Series Six Plus, is a module-based database system that runs on Macintosh II, Macintosh Plus, SE, or SE30 systems with an 800KB disk drive and a minimum of 1MB of RAM, a hard disk, and FoxBase+/Mac version 2.0. The core modules are SBT general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, purchase orders, and sales orders.

Linking the modules allows information to be transferred, which permits concurrent updates. Installation and set-up are easy and documentation is clearly written, well illustrated, and thoroughly indexed. The compiled and source code modules retail for $695 each.

Strategic software selection
Article Abstract:
The selection of business software has evolved into a strategic process. The traditional method of software selection involved identifying software needs, evaluating vendors and then choosing the software following demonstrations. In contrast, strategic selection begins with assessments of the strategic requirements for the new software. Vendors and products can then be evaluated based on their ability to meet these requirements. The next step involves the development of an implementation plan which takes into account factors such as implementation costs and the benefits of the new software. The last step is to obtain senior management approval for the implementation plan before licensing the chosen software.
