Business management software doesn't need to be difficult


Computers were supposed to make it easier, but reality is that medium and small businesses are disappearing as large corporations use their dominance in IT to squeeze out competition.


Large enterprises can afford professional IT staff.

Medium and small enterprises rely on professional salespeople.


Selling software to medium and small companies is a multi-billion dollar business...

which might help explain why Big Tech can build amazing applications like the Internet, Smartphones, the Metaverse, and AI, but

fail to deliver simple inexpensive software for medium and small business management.




Business management software should be as simple to use as a basic spreadsheet.

The results should interconnect and automate all aspects of the business.

It should look like this...



This nursery automates Purchase Orders, Receiving, Inventory, Sales, Accounting and more.





This craft brewery places Purchase Orders, tracks Receiving, uses a Bill of Materials to automatically update Inventory in Brewing, posts Inventory value to Accounting at End-Of-Period, tracks Kegs by batch and with customers.





This cafe uses a table chart to open and close guest dockets.





Sales, purchases, end-of-period inventory values all post automatically into a complete accounting app.





This business uses a variety of timecard, timeclock, and shift scheduling apps.





All these businesses use Sumer to build their entire management system.




Set-up is simple:

  • Forms are built with a spreadsheet-style interface that looks exactly like the underlying form,

  • Menus are built with drag-and-drop and can be customized down to an individual user level,

  • That's all.

Sumer believes business management software should cost 10% of its current price, be far more comprehensive, and be based on an open source peer-to-peer platform.
