BOSTON--(Business Wire)--
Maconomy US, leading provider of business solutions and services
for professional services companies, along with partner 360
Visibility, announced today that Cossette Communication has selected
the Maconomy Agency Solution for 1350 users in Canada, with the
possibility of further roll-outs in the UK and US. The initial
deployment will focus on streamlining Cossette's current financial and
job budgeting processes.

designed specifically for marketing communications agencies. The
Maconomy solution has the capacity to eventually support offices in
Canada, the US and the UK on one single platform.

employees in our subsidiaries abroad. This will create greater
cohesion in our business," says CFO Jean Royer, Cossette Communication
Group.

"Creative agencies have always been one of our key customer
segments. Over the years we have built significant expertise in the
agency market. Our Agency Solution allows agencies to streamline their
business processes and focus on their creative tasks. Maconomy
constantly strives to stay on top of the business challenges faced by
our agency customers and other customers in the 'Professional Services
Organizations' segment," says CEO Hugo Dorph, Maconomy.

"The Maconomy Agency Solution is a low-risk alternative for
professional services firms - the implementation methodology is safe,
repeatable and rapid. With one totally integrated database across
geographical locations, all participants are able to See Clearly and
Act Faster in order to make agile business decisions," says Marco
