Benefits of Membership

Welcome to the Prophet 21 World Wide Users Group! The group is committed to helping its members get the most out of their investment in the premier distribution software available, Activant Prophet 21 (formerly CommerceCenter). This group is totally independent of Activant, however, we do work closely with management and staff at Activant.

As you become involved in the group you will quickly learn that we all experience many of the same types of issues running our businesses day to day. As a group member you are automatically eligible to be on our list server. On the list server, group members share ideas, ask questions, troubleshoot the software or a business practice. The list server is an invaluable asset to our member businesses. Many have used the ideas they have seen come across to streamline many processes in their businesses. Others have used the list server to find the answer to a problem they had over a weekend when Activant was closed. Members of our Group are always open to help a friend in need.

Through the website, users can upload Crystal Reports and SQL Queries that users have developed to help their businesses which may help you in yours. Members can download those reports and queries with just a change to the database pointer. You and your business benefit from the work that someone else did for you!

Another critical aspect of membership is the ability to add enhancement requests to the website and prioritize those enhancements. The officers of the group will review these enhancements with Activant Product Management to attempt to improve the Prophet product. We have had excellent success in this area.

As a part of your membership with the group, you as the primary contact have automatically been added to the list server. If other members of your company would like to be on the list server, you will be able to add them.

Dues for 2010 for a member business are $499 and the dues are prorated based on the month you join.

On behalf of the membership the board of directors welcomes you aboard and we all look forward to getting to know you. Please feel free to contact any of the officers if we can be of service in helping you get started.
