Overall Satisfaction with Sage 100

Our company is a larger conglomeration of multiple related organizations. We have roughly 300 employees, across 10 companies in the US. Our organization needed an ERP solution with a full range of modules from payroll, receivables, payables, and inventory management. Sage 100 was the best fit for our company and we have been using it for well over 20 years.

Pros

  • Inventory Management, with bin locations, and customizable fields
  • Full sales workflow from Quote, Sales Order, to Receivables
  • Payroll module with robust reporting capability

Cons

  • Database backend, Sage 100 relies on the ProvideX database, which has limited ODBC functionality
  • Document management. Paperless Office is not a robust solution for Sage 100 and feels like an add-on.
  • Support. Getting support is tricky, and you will usually have to work with your reseller/support partner.
  • Sage 100 isn't as user friendly as newer ERP solutions, so training is the biggest issue we face now. Knowledge transfer is done entirely from the previous employee, unless you are lucky enough to have a department dedicated to documenting and outlining standardized processes.

Do you think Sage 100 delivers good value for the price?

Would you buy Sage 100 again?

Yes

Sage 100 is well suited for medium to large sized businesses. It works great in the manufacturing and b2b sales industry. It's fairly well known with plenty of partners creating integrations that support it. Since it was originally designed for accountants, it has a very attractive and well rounded feature set for accounting departments.
