Considered Both Products	Sage 100cloud Verified User Executive Chose Sage 100 In my 15 years at this company, we have only used Sage100. Prior to purchasing Sage100, JobBoss was partially used; however, JobBoss did not integrate well with the general ledger, accounts payable and inventory of Sage100. Sage100 offers seamless integration of those … Incentivized Helpful? Nick Sucan Controller/HR Manager Chose Sage 100 Sage 100cloud has taken some time to get used to. It is not a user-friendly as some of the other software, but you can get the hang of it by using it enough. It provides a lot of accounting, inventory and customer data management for our company. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User General Manager Chose Sage 100 I didn't choose Sage 100 ERP -- it was already in use when I started at the organization over five years ago. It has the same types of pros and cons as other big hulking software suites meant to power the infrastructure of corporations. It's slow, tough to customize, and … Incentivized Helpful? Viola Avery Staff Accountant Chose Sage 100 We did not evaluate another ERP at this business. Incentivized Helpful? Gustavo Porporato Daher Financial Accounting Chose Sage 100 The main drivers are cost, implementation time and effort, and simple options for basic business use. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Manager Chose Sage 100 Sage 100 is much more robust and has an impeccable audit trail when compared to Quickbooks. Sage 100 also provides real time inventory management and manufacturing capabilities not provided in QB. Incentivized Helpful? Paul Maldonato Senior Consutlant Chose Sage 100 I'm a VAR for multiple ERP packages and for the money Sage 100 can't be beat for distribution. For project accounting and advanced manufacturing I would go with another solution. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Director Chose Sage 100 Sage is a great product with it's own niche. We are happy with selecting Sage for our accounting department. Incentivized Helpful? Joshua Curlett Chief Operating Officer Chose Sage 100 For the cost of the software and implementation, we knew we were getting a more robust software that we could grow with. Other software offerings would have had to be piece-meal solutions and created more difficulty integrating. Helpful? Joseph Mancuso Sage 100 ERP Consultant Chose Sage 100 All three products are very good, but at some point reach their limits and Sage 100 ERP becomes a very good, easy to use, cost effective solutions. It is also more secure than QuickBooks or Sage 50. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Account Manager Chose Sage 100 Have not recently evaluated other systems. This was in use when I arrived. We have found no reason to change. It provides the information we need. Incentivized Helpful? TA Therese Anthony Controller Chose Sage 100 Sage 100 is far more user-friendly, easier smoother installation than Epicor. More robust and versatile than Quick Books. Does not require the technical overhead needed to run MD Great Plains. Incentivized Helpful? Lynn Albala Accountant Chose Sage 100 I have used Blackbaud and MIP. Blackbaud is excellent for private schools and universities due to their tuition module. MIP is a strong nonprofit software product. Sage 100 ERP meets the organization's needs and made the transition less costly. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User C-Level Executive Chose Sage 100 I didn't select Sage and wouldn't have selected it if given the opportunity. It was here when I came on board. We are currently in the process of migrating to Financial Edge. Incentivized Helpful? Clark Walliser IT Business Analyst Chose Sage 100 The last 20 years I worked as a Sage consultant implementing Sage 100 for customers. Other systems I dealt with were: Quickbooks, MS Great Plains, Expandable, Accpac (now sage). Downgrades from Oracle and SAP Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Manager Chose Sage 100 We preferred the cost point and overall value we felt we got as opposed to the competition Incentivized Helpful? BW Brett Witzel IT Manager Chose Sage 100 I've reviewed Accpac, Syspro, SAP Business 1 and Platinum. Sage is far easier to use and setup than Syspro and SAP Business 1. Generally speaking, most accounting software does the same thing, at the end of the day, how easy is it to modify data inside the system and review to … Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	Sage 100
Likelihood to Recommend	Sage For small and medium business in the distribution and light manufacturing space, Sage 100 is probably the best bang for your buck. As a very scaleable system, you can modify the system to meet the needs of a growing business without making gross changes to the core of the system Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Sage Simple to implement and use. Operation very intuitive so new employees are quickly trained. It is very flexible with many modules and many features allows for easy customization to suit particular needs of any department or company. Context sensitive help, training and support make it easy for a company to operate with out a lot of additional outside tech support. Scalable plenty of room to grow as the business grows without being bloated. Pricing is very reasonable. Incentivized TA Therese Anthony Controller Read full review
Cons	Sage It's painfully slow even for mid-sized businesses like ours without millions of transactions. It crashes very, very often and has numerous critical failures. Unfortunately, it's a local program so that excludes it from being used remotely. You have to be on site for it to work. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	Sage I would put this out to bid, if I were at the same organization. There have been a lot of improvements and changes in enterprise software and my preference would be to find a good web-based or cloud-based tool. Lower overall cost of ownership and improved efficiency would be my target criteria for a rebid of this. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	Sage It is easy, flexible, user friendly and feature laden. Out of the box or easily customized to meet our "wish" list . Sage offers a variety of modules and bolt-ons, user defined fields etc., allowing us to conduct business "our way" without forcing us into a one-size- fits- none mold or having to purchase expensive and cumbersome programming modifications Incentivized TA Therese Anthony Controller Read full review
Support Rating	Sage Sage Support is very good. I usually get a person on the phone in a short time frame and usually get my issues fixed in one called. Incentivized Joseph Mancuso Sage 100 ERP Consultant Read full review
Implementation Rating	Sage We had an advantage in implementing the tool in that our director of Ops had been part of the team implementing the ERP for other users so we knew what to expect and were able to avoid a lot of the challenges people sometimes face with implementations. However, the process still took far longer than desired. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Sage I've reviewed Accpac, Syspro, SAP Business 1 and Platinum. Sage is far easier to use and setup than Syspro and SAP Business 1. Generally speaking, most accounting software does the same thing, at the end of the day, how easy is it to modify data inside the system and review to make sure that your system integrity is intact. I find that Sage 100 is excellent at these things. Incentivized BW Brett Witzel IT Manager Read full review
Return on Investment	Sage We have seen increased efficiencies for our team members processing orders and fulfillment as they are now integrated. We have cut paper/printing/mail expenses by 500% of what we previously spent. Our overall cash management has improved with the visibility from Bank Reconciliation and Financial Reporting.
