Acquistion FAQ
Answers to the most frequently asked questions we've received regarding the InfiniTec acquistions and the status of your iSeries AS/400:

Is Manatron going to support our applications on the AS/400?

Yes. We have no plans to end support of the AS/400 platform. We will support your hardware and software well into the future.

Does Manatron have all the software packages ready in .NET for Windows?

The .NET versions of Tax, Personal Property, Oil & Gas, and Recorder (For Register of Deeds) have been released and are ready for use. Financial Management .NET release is planned for 4th quarter 2009. Payroll will follow soon after.

I just bought a new AS/400 last year – Am I going to have to switch software and buy new hardware?

No. You have made an investment on that platform. Manatron will continue to support your commitment to it.

My county is at the point where we were scheduled for a new AS/400 this year. Do I have options?

Absolutely, and your path can be driven by your county’s needs and priorities.  You can work with your Manatron sales representative to configure a new AS/400 for your county, if you feel your current software is meeting your needs. However, this is an excellent opportunity to discuss the move to the .NET platform. Moving to the .NET platform will mean switching from the AS/400 platform to a Microsoft server-based infrastructure with all of its inherent advantages. Or, you can eliminate the need to purchase hardware altogether, as we also offer hosting services of our .NET applications – no more worries about hardware configuration, maintenance, or every day system management.

What happens when VIPS moves off of the AS/400?

While it will be awhile in any event, when VIPS does move off the AS/400; you can  continue to use it to run all of your iSeries applications. We will continue to support our applications on that platform regardless of the timing of VIPS.

What is the cost of your .NET application software?

Each county is custom priced based on county size and what software of ours they currently run.

Will there come a day when you do not support the AS/400 and the applications on it?

Eventually, the AS/400 will cease to be a cost-effective and viable alternative for you compared to the .NET alternative. However, that is well into the future and we have no end-of-support time frame currently in mind. If we determine we need to establish such a date, we will communicate it to you several years in advance to make sure you have ample time to make the best decision for your county.

Is InfiniTec, a Division of Manatron, still a Kansas company?

Manatron is licensed for business in Kansas and the InfiniTec division remains the center of our Kansas operations. The Hays office remains intact and Manatron employs a strong team of Kansas professionals to support you. The entire Kansas business unit continues to be run by Travis Rozean who is now a vital member of the Manatron Management Team. Your support  will continue to come out of Hays. The only change you have may have noticed is that your billing originates in Portage, Michigan where Manatron is based.

What if I have additional questions? Can someone come and talk to our commissioners?

Absolutely, feel free to ask Sonny or Brent any additional questions. If you need our presence in your county to address any questions from the commissioners, please don’t hesitate to ask.
