Two enterprise application software (EAS) companies CDC Software (CDC) and Consona (News - Alert) Corporation (Consona) have merged to form a new brand-Aptean.

CDC Software (CDC) is a global provider of enterprise software for on-premise and cloud deployments and Consona offers technology and services across the following software application categories: ERP, CRM, knowledge management, eService, network management and product configuration.

Both CDC Software (News - Alert) and Consona have experience in delivering software and services to companies of all sizes, and their new brand will work to serve more than 9,000 customers through 1,500 employees by leveraging a global network of sales and support operations.

“This merger supports our business model and fits with our strategy by increasing Aptean’s exposure in well-defined vertical markets,” said Monte Ford, president of Aptean. “We are committed to protecting our customers’ software application investments through continued enhancement of all our existing software platforms, while developing new products, features and delivery capabilities.”

Aptean will work towards developing its relationships with the customers of both CDC and Consona and will also maintain customer support with efficient and effective implementation services.

“We’re excited about the opportunity to deliver greater value and an even broader range of solutions to our customers,” said Scott Malia, chief operating officer of Consona. Both companies have an extensive history in the enterprise application software market and will combine valuable and insightful industry expertise with complementary, high quality products.”

CDC Software was in news earlier this year for announcing the general availability of Ross ERP 7.0. The release of its next generation of ERP applications offers improved interoperability, increased collaborative capabilities, enhanced usability, new mobility features and more advanced traceability.
