Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Our client is using Sage Estimating and as their IT managed services provider we support them with their infrastucture and systems. Our client switched to SAGE Estimating as they were using SAGE X3 for their other ERP needs. The biggest issue Sage Estimating solved for them is that all the spreadsheets are in the same format without any errors and probability of users errors with the math formulas as the Estimator is performing it with its database engine.

Same format Spreadsheet
Ability to adjust by percentages

Complexity.
Is not cloud based

Return on Investment

Manupulation of existing data is very user friendly thanks to "Database Manager".
A bit pricey
