grow their companies," said Andrew Goldberg, senior director of strategic
marketing, Sage Software. "With Peachtree Remote Access, employees are
empowered to securely access their entire desktop PC, including their
Peachtree applications in real time, on demand from anywhere. With the
additional Peachtree Online Meeting service, small businesses can share
information and increase productivity, including strengthening their
working relationships with outside consultants such as an accountant, by
working on business finances together online."
"Sage Software and Citrix Online have teamed up to deliver a powerful
combination of productivity solutions designed to address the unique needs
of small businesses," said Mike Mansbach, vice president of product
marketing and business development, Citrix Online. "Sage understands that
small businesses want sensible, easy-to-use and easy-to-manage solutions
that fit seamlessly into their work environment -- technology that just
works."
Peachtree Remote Access, powered by Citrix Online's award-winning GoToMyPC,
enables users to remotely log onto their office PCs from any other
Internet-connected computer to access all their applications and files.
This fast, easy and secure remote access service gives small businesses
greater flexibility to work from home or on the road, improving operational
productivity and efficiency.
Sage Software offers two versions of Peachtree Remote Access to accommodate
small businesses of different sizes. Peachtree Remote Access is for
individual professional users. Peachtree Remote Access Pro is for small
