AXIS founder and top Sage “influencer” Kelly Hummel named Net at Work’s Sage 300 Practice Director

 
NEW ORLEANS, LA — July 30, 2015 — Net at Work, a leading provider of integrated business technology solutions and a top Sage business partner, today announced that it has acquired AXIS Integrated Solutions (AXIS), a consultant and reseller of Sage 300 and Sage CRM serving businesses across St. Louis, Tulsa and Kansas City. Highly regarded Sage partner and consultant Kelly Hummel, the founder and CEO of AXIS, has been named Net at Work’s Sage 300 Practice Director, heading up a Sage 300 team of respected industry veterans that includes sales team leader Joe Santoro and consulting manager Sonia Gray.

The acquisition solidifies and expands Net at Work’s Sage 300 practice, bringing AXIS’ full complement of consulting, sales, implementation, warehousing and manufacturing expertise into the fold. Kelly and her team will continue to operate from their main office in St. Louis, assuring a quick and seamless transition as their clients are brought into the Net at Work fold. The acquisition gives AXIS clients access to Net at Work’s award-winning Sage team, providing unmatched support for the full suite of Sage ERP, CRM and HRMS solutions, while delivering a complete range of technologies and services to help them grow their business, including: cloud solutions, document management, eCommerce & web development, marketing automation, and IT-related services.

“I’ve known Kelly for many years, having served with her on Sage’s Business Partner Advisory Council, and have long admired her leadership and the depth and breadth of her Sage 300 expertise,” said Alex Solomon, Net at Work’s co-President. “Kelly is truly one of the most influential people in the Sage ecosystem and is the final piece in our Sage 300 ‘dream team.’ “This gives us an unmatched ability to implement complete business solutions and position our customers — as well as our partners — to succeed in today’s ever-changing business landscape.”

Under Kelly’s leadership, AXIS was a member of both the Sage Chairman’s Club and Sage President’s Circle and garnered a number of industry awards, receiving recognition as an Accounting Technology Pacesetter and a listing among the VAR 100.

“I’ve watched Eddie and Alex grow their firm successfully and gracefully, always advocating for their customers and partners, both big and small,” said Kelly Hummel, Net at Work’s new Sage 300 Practice Director. “I’ve always appreciated their best practice approach and implementation methodologies, as they’re very much in sync with ours. We’re all very excited to be part of the Net at Work team and look forward to making this the strongest Sage 300 practice in the industry.”

The AXIS acquisition is the most recent example and validation of the Net at Work Partner Alliance Program, introduced at Sage Summit 2013, which gives professional services firms a path to a graceful “exit.” The program also enables VARs and professional services to augment their in-house specialties by accessing Net at Work resources in the areas of Sage ERP, CRM, HRMS, as well as extended solutions, including NetSuite, Abila, Microsoft SharePoint and Office 365, Magento eCommerce, and cloud and managed IT services. Tom Miller, Net at Work’s Channel Advocate, and the leader of the Partner Alliance Program, is at Sage Summit 2015 to meet with any partners interested in learning more about the program.

Net at Work, a Sage Summit 2015 Silver Sponsor, is exhibiting at booth # 526. Sage Summit 2015, being held in New Orleans, is an annual conference for Sage customers and partners, and is widely considered to be one of the most valuable events for the nation’s small or medium-sized businesses.
