Acumatica just took APEX for Distribution and APEX for Manufacturing out of testing and made these stripped down versions of Acumatica generally available to the SMB market. These are direct-sales offerings targeting businesses with up to 50 employees.
APEX bundles subscription, implementation, and support into a single monthly fee. The feature set is Acumatica although intentionally constrained: single warehouse, BOMs limited to two levels, and one shipping carrier integration. MRP is only available in higher-tier packages.
Implementations appear to be handled by a team acquired from a former VAR. Acumatica has also published self-service pricing calculators, signaling a low-touch sales model for this segment.
