Puntos a favor:

Lo visual que es, lo fácil que es manejarlo, las opciones que tenemos de poder desarrollar funciones por nosotros mismos.

El tiempo que hemos tardado en migrar la información desde el antiguo ERP

Sage 100 for buisness gurus

Puntos a favor:

The most interesting thing about sage 100 is the plethora of features it offers.Due to its versatile nature, one can perform numerous tasks with the software.

Contras:

I think I would recommend sage 100 to anyone, because I haven't experienced any downside of the software so far

Huge improvements over earlier Sage products

Comentarios: We've been able to greatly improve how our manufacturing processes across various locations are reflected in our budgets and accounting practices. It's saved us thousands of hours per year in terms of extracting the data, manipulating it, and putting it back into Sage for final reporting. You can now do that within Sage 100.

Puntos a favor:

Our organization moved from Sage 50 to Sage 100 and wow, what a difference! We thought Sage was the issue, but really the business had just outgrown the more base version of the software. Sage 100 can fully handle complex costing and processes present in a modern day manufacturing business. It can collect data at various nodes in the process and roll them up for budgeting and forecasting.

Contras:

We use a lot of agile software platforms on our sales and ecommerce side of the business, and Sage 100's API catalog doesn't really keep up with what's needed to move quickly in 2020.

good starting point

Comentarios: its easy enough to get through. a quick learn. it'll do the job day to day no problem.

Puntos a favor:

it is a very simple program to use. it really cant be dumbed downed enough. its a great starting point for a small business, as the company grows probably would want to upgrade

Contras:

certain options could just be better. Inventory look up, example looking up an item could be better, unless the description is spot on to find the part # the program wont broaden the search for you.

To many steps to do simple daily process

Comentarios: Sage works, support companies and eide bailey sold it to us did not do there due diligence in my opinion selling us the software we needed that would handle what we do. Integration problems and being told to use a certain card processing that did not work without a bridge with fusion costing us more money and have had it out 4 times in the last week.

Puntos a favor:

The accounting portion is probably the most complete.

Contras:

To me there is several cons we have found after the purchase. My biggest complaint being the amount of time it takes to do simple process. Example: when we have price changes and adjustments to make, it can not be done from a central place. As a dealer that is retail and wholesale both, we have to change retail in one screen, wholesale on another, and finally cost in a completely different location. When you have 30k items this takes 4 times longer than other systems. My other major complaint is dealing with several different companies to get everything you need to support sage for daily operation. We have experienced finger pointing back and forth from the support companies of whose problem it is and nothing gets corrected for months. As I say we are over 2 years from our sign up and it has been a multitude of issues and we are still not complete. Delays on large orders put into fusion portion are a time killer.

Sage Live Saver 1000

Comentarios: The customer support is exceptional, the webinars are always available and we don't need to run around if we need help, just an email or call away from assistance.

Puntos a favor:

It's comprehensive features, user-friendly interface and reliability,

Contras:

At the start of using it was a bit complicated, but once the training commenced, it went well, we expected it to be easy to understand from the start, but we managed.

Perfect software for any business

Puntos a favor:

I think the thing I like most is that fact that everything pertaining to the specific job is kept all together and easily accessible.

Contras:

When using job cost, only one person can access at a time unless we purchase another license, but its not a huge deal.

Easy to use software with a lot of accuracy

Comentarios: Financial reporting has been made easy with the software as I am able to generate budgets and financial reports with a lot of flexibility and accuracy. Invoicing is also efficient with the software.

Puntos a favor:

The software has an impressive capability for managing project costs. It ensures that the cost of a project is well taken care of through proper budgeting and tracking of project expenditure.

Contras:

I have nothing that I don't like about the software. Our accounting and financial needs are well taken care of by the software.

Sage Review

Puntos a favor:

Easy to use for accounting and other functions.

Contras:

There could be better ways to track changes.

The All In One Accounting App

Puntos a favor:

I do a lot of financial reporting and I find that the reporting options are excellent. I’m able to create reports quickly and easily for all accounting needs.

Contras:

It’s a small con but the overall look of the application could be better.

Pay for everything

Puntos a favor:

Nothing - we used to but they they monetized everything

Contras:

Don’t buy unless you plan to have every area monetized. We bought the program years ago then they updated us without consent to subscription. Since then it’s every little thing costs.

Sage Review

Puntos a favor:

It is very easy to go back & see when & what I purchased regarding my purchase orders.

Contras:

Sometimes it kicks me out & the only way to get back in is to restart my computer.

Business Accounting Software Tool

Comentarios: I see that sage is very competitive with the features and easy to install

Puntos a favor:

Sage is way cheaper compared with competitors in the market.

Contras:

It has less user-friendly compared with quickbooks.

Easy to use for wages

Comentarios: Very easy and straightforward wage system to view.

Puntos a favor:

As a user sage is very straightforward to view wage slips, P60s etc. 1 and 2 clicks are right to where you need

Contras:

I have not found any features so far through sage that I have been dissatisfied with and hopefully continues like that

Practical for commercial enterprises

Comentarios: This software is the best ally of commercial companies for accounting management.

Puntos a favor:

Manual and automatic bank reconciliation availableBilling capacity and management of outstanding payments and remindersFunctions for analysis of available production costs and costs

Contras:

software a little general, too genericAlittle expensive

MAS90 - Windows - Sage 100

Comentarios: Custom reports are tricky in that some modules do not "play in the same sandbox" as other modules.

Puntos a favor:

Once you get a sound understanding of the modules, it is fairly easy to sort and find information and to product some reports.

Contras:

MAS90 was a pre-Windows software that had limits, but was workable. Then MAS90 was sold and given a facelift to become Sage 100. Sage 100 is basically a format, presentation and color change from MAS90. I used MAS90 25 years ago and learned some of the shortcuts after going to the State of the Art University. When I left the company that used MAS90, within a short time something happened to the business world: Windows. Now 25 years later and after several versions and upgrades of Windows, I am once again working with MAS90 behind the mask of SAGE 100. It is not like revisiting an old friend, but an old motel that are still using the same bedding. The training that I received did help make the reintroduction easier. It is ironic that several times in the search bar of Sage 100 it even refers to "MAS90." None-the-less as noted the Windows rise and dominance came into the mainstream if not becoming the stream of business. The tough thing is that MAS90 did not change with a Windows feel when it was altered into Sage 100. Frankly, it is most frustrating to jump from Outlook, Word, Excel then to Sage 100. Something as easy as hitting "enter" or "tab" in Sage 100 will cause redundancy in keying and wasted time. The answer is simple, the user MUST have a passion for selecting or clicking the left mouse button and consciously shifting their thinking from 2019 back to 1994 when ever they enter the world of Sage 100.

Solid mid-market enterprise accounting system, with quirks

Comentarios: Very solid system with a few frustrating quirks. You will need to host any version of Sage 100. Consider a cloud-based software as an alternative (Sage Intacct perhaps, although the price skyrockets compared to Sage 100).

Puntos a favor:

-very cost-friendly pricing for small or medium sized businesses. this is the biggest selling point for Sage to me - it beats Quickbooks as a more ERP level system but is still very reasonably priced -solid on standard accounting -multi-company/location/entity reporting -import/export works well -test company option helps new users acclimate -simple bank reconciliation module -security and role definitions -GL reports are very useful to financial experts

Contras:

-bank reconciliation doesn't force you to reconcile to the GL cash account. That defeats the purpose of a reconciliation... -there is almost no customizability to the financial statements. I guarantee you will need to export (Excel) or use a different software (Crystal Reports) to build your monthly financials. -Sage 100 products are hosted in-house, so in the age of the cloud, you will still need to purchase and support your own server, a pain for a small or medium sized business. -there are no "drill down" options in financial statements. That ability in Management Reporter was a huge plus in Microsoft Dynamics products. -Multi-fund reporting cannot be consolidated (unless this is an add on module we didn't purchase) -There are no reports that show unposted JEs -AP voids and invoice reversals are a NIGHTMARE. Seriously, my staff lose sleep over trying to never need to void a check in Sage. -Dashboards are basic. It feels very "old" as a system compared to new cloud-based options. -No auto reconciliation. I've heard that's a selling point of Xero.

Medical Director of Finance SAGE 100 Review

Puntos a favor:

Fairly straight forward and easy to use. Can be easily modified to meet the needs of our organization.

Contras:

A/P invoicing could be better. Had to go outside SAGE and interface with outside Sage affiliated system to get what we need done.

A FULLY INTEGRATED SOFTWARE SOLUTION

Comentarios: Using Sage 100C has provided more flexibility to the workforce and has increased productivity over the old VPN solution. With an increase in work from home scenarios, this has proven to be a helpful addition to our software solutions in conducting business.

Puntos a favor:

The program has many robust features with integrated billing, and having the ability to select batch or live processing allows us to be flexible with each department. The fact that you can modify areas of the software to support your own needs is a big positive in our book. Sage does a great job with reports and extracting data to excel. The fact that it fully integrates through GL makes it very easy to use within the entire organization.

Contras:

I would like to see larger fields to capture pertinent information. Additional user-defined fields that can be integrated with report design would be a nice addition. The ability to modify the canned reports and turn them into a custom report would really be helpful.

Software that is easy to customize to fit your exact needs

Comentarios: All in all, this is a good product with options for growth as your business needs change.

Puntos a favor:

Sage 100 Advanced ERP allows you to create data fields that are unique to your business and have the data flow through the various processes and data files. We have added over 100 fields to our invoicing forms, and the data flows from the sales order to the invoice, to the accounts receivable history. The data entry screens are easily modified to add any custom fields you need. The forms for printing documents are also easily modified via Crystal Reports. We utilize Crystal Reports to perform error checking at the order entry point to alert the order entry and billing clerks if there any issues with the order that needs to be corrected. We check to see if purchase orders are required. If they are, is one on the order? We check to ensure the sales tax code is correct for the shipping address. There are easily a dozen things we check, all utilizing the tools built into Crystal Reports. We have been using this software since the mid-1990's and have upgraded year after year. The upgrades are much easier than they used to be and the features that have been added over the last few years are great additions to the software.

Contras:

Some of the processes are more complicated than they need to be. Recording pre-payments on A/R or A/P invoices is a prime example. The process for both should be re-evaluated, and the process should be the same for any pre-payment that needs to be recorded. Some of the module pricing doesn't make any sense. The asset module is way too expensive when compared to other options available.

A Well Travelled Work Horse

Comentarios: Its a great product for the small business client looking for audit-compliance, reporting and a trust-worthy product without spending a lot. If mobility is not a huge concern for you and you want to keep your operating costs low, choose Sage 100.

Puntos a favor:

Sage 100 is very well suited for financial record keeping, distribution management and reporting on these business operations. Functionally, it is very reliable and straight forward to use. It was the first accounting software I ever used in a professional setting and I continue to think in terms of the way items are processed in Sage 100. Because it has been around for decades, there is a substantial amount of knowledge available to new users by way of Sage City and the number of consultants available for support is also a huge asset. The subscription pricing makes it very simple to purchase and include as an operating cost for the lifetime of the business and there are great integrations available in the channel.

Contras:

I wish there was a mobile app that gave access to the approval functions and other areas of the product that would be convenient when traveling away from the office - or even just working remotely. Remote accessing a server is very inconvenient and there are so many browser-based systems in business already. Sage 100 feels behind the times without this functionality.

I don't have cloud just Sage 100

Comentarios: I don't have Sage 100 cloud?

Puntos a favor:

The support people were excellent to work with and made our transition in 2012 as easy as a new installation could ever get. I also like that all the areas are similar, so if you know Order Entry you can translate that knowledge to say Purchasing.

Contras:

When i go to create custom reports there are databases with the last three letters WRK. It would be great to have access to those databases; i realize they are a combination of existing databases but they have everything i usually need for a custom report. The bug in the current software update where you can't close the ship-to-address box in the right corner is annoying.

Sage 100

Comentarios: Over all we are very happy with the software and support received.

Puntos a favor:

We use Sage100 for AR, AP, invoicing, inventory and month end reporting. The software is rather easy to use and can be customize for your business needs.It is very easy to train someone to use SAGE 100. Another feature I like is that I can pull reports out into excel. Also the support given from the SAGE staff is high quality. Good software and support overall.

Contras:

The only con to this software is, it is slow at times.

Long time user, fed up with huge price increases. Subscription based accounting with inventory.

Comentarios: Back in 2005 it was the only mid level accounting system out there. Today there are just too many other options without being held hostage to price gouging.

Puntos a favor:

The way it can handle inventory and pick,pack ship. Used to include a great Payroll program but now that is an add on.

Contras:

Huge price increases year after year for just the license. Then you have to hire a software programmer to even do the smallest of task. Or even more money to fix a simple data entry error.
