User Testimonials
	Exact Online	Sage 200 Evolution
Likelihood to Recommend	Exact Software If you are a big company and have an active accountant then this system can be for you, it has many options but you need dedication. But the price starts from €39 and then you are not there...Most of the time you need other options to make it complete. Like ERP functions + €199~ want to book hours? +€129. And this is all per month... It goes up so fast that it's not interesting for small companies. When there are better options on the market that are even free... Incentivized Mike Koolwijk Marketin Automation and SEO Specialist Read full review	Sage As the AP of the company it is good at generating suggested payments and the upload feature to the bank is very helpful Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Exact Software Complete pack with many options, use it as CRM, ERP or simply for your bookings. Many connections with external programs, webshops, etc. Automatic backups. Incentivized Mike Koolwijk Marketin Automation and SEO Specialist Read full review	Sage Export payments to the bank Reports Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Exact Software Support... It's bad, and when you want to stop or step back it's near impossible. Price, they tend to increase it without warning, and with all the extras it goes up fast. If you wanna spend all your time in accounting buy Exact... It can be complex and many handlings needs to be done.

Usability	Exact Software No answers on this topic	Sage Many users use it at the same time with no issue Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	Exact Software No answers on this topic	Sage We use Pinnacle for software support and find them helpful Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Exact Software I would not select Exact Online, but I can direct you to better options. Due to the high price, getting behind the competition and support I would suggest options like Zoho Books for you bookings, or CyberStockroom as ERP. And here in the Netherlands e-boekhouden.nl is a real nice, cheap, and fast working booking platform for the smaller companies. Incentivized Mike Koolwijk Marketin Automation and SEO Specialist Read full review	Sage Not compared to other software as it is a strong software package but may change in the future Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Exact Software Negative: High costs and implement time turned 1 client in to the negative, and after 2 years of use wants to stop. Positive: Once an ERP connection is running you can automate a lot in the process.
