Manhattan launches tiered Editions for growing firms
Manhattan Associates launched tiered Editions for its Active software suite, targeting growing businesses. The three tiers (Essentials, Enterprise, Enterprise Premier) offer scalable access to ActiveWarehouse, ActiveTransportation, ActiveStore, and ActiveOrder. The model aims to reduce system transitions as companies expand, avoiding deployment and training costs. According to the company, upgrades occur without data migration or staff retraining.
