Adagio is a set of Microsoft Windows accounting programs for
companies with annual revenues of up to $50 million. It has been especially
designed as an upgrade path for users of the well-seasoned DOS accounting
system, ACCPAC® Plus, but is equally well-suited for companies
who are just starting to automate their accounting system or who are
ready to trade up to a very powerful multi-user system.
For ACCPAC Plus users, Adagio is the best of all worlds. Without
converting their database and learning completely new programs, ACCPAC
Plus users get the graphical benefits of Windows yet still take advantage
of their years of experience and the hundreds of 3rd Party programs
that work with their database.
Adagio modules are specifically written to work in the Microsoft
Windows environment yet they integrate fully with the database structure
of ACCPAC Plus. Each Adagio module has been written for Microsoft
Windows to exacting standards; they are not just a "front end". However,
to allow ACCPAC Plus clients a risk-free move to Adagio, an equivalent
database structure was used. This means that the ACCPAC Plus DOS modules
can still work when the new Adagio Windows modules are installed.
