ACCOUNTING INTEGRATION
Pangaea has developed integration techniques for linking Pangaea Software with QuickBooks™ accounting packages, a product of Intuit® Corporation. Pangaea has also developed integration techniques for linking with the Great Plains™ accounting packages known as Small Business Manger™, Standard™ and Enterprise™. Great Plains™ is a product of Microsoft Corporation.
Access to these popular accounting packages affords Pangaea clients several choices for achieving the level of financial control and reporting that is required.

These packages may be purchased directly or through Pangaea.
