Sage 100cloud Reviews

Being able to lock data in a time frame. And the bank reconciliation.

A little more expensive compared to other products. But this is ok considering its features being specific to accounting profession.

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.

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.

EVERYTHING EASE OF WORKING .. BALANCING BOOKS

PAYROLL - YOU HAVE TO RUN 2 DIFFERENT PAY PERIODS SEPARATE

We have been using the Sage ERP Suite for over 10 years and it has been very reliable with only a few issues along the way. In there new releases they have mitigated the issues we have run into. We have been able to customize quite a bit to make it more streamlined for our users.

Payroll we had some issues with and moved to another solution.

Complete end to end ERP solution with robust modules scaled for massive implementations - now fairly priced for smaller companies without the loss of functionality.

It is a full featured product that is clearly designed for large organizations with dozens of users. In a small company it is a bit burdensome as there are no quick transactions or shortcuts. The Crystal reporting suite is also full function - but it takes a true Crystal expert to easily create reports. There is no ability to quickly create an ad hoc report, and unless Crystal is your second language, it often takes too long to build a report for a single use.

Effective, yet simple to understand and utilize

Doesn't have the fancy looking categories. It's just plain and simple

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

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.

The best thing about this software is it’s streamlined nature. An ERP that can help completely monitor from manufacturing to storage to logistics to HR and even customer relationship and satisfaction. This is one top of the line software.

It is still a bit jumbled up. Once loaded, it still looks like a whole lot on the eye. Icons and folders can still be properly arranged and sorted properly. Still a lot of addons that are not really needed.

This software is easily customizable at install AND it is reliable. The software updates are rarely a problem; no need to wait for other users to test and work out the bugs found in some software updates.

Module pricing is a little more costly than other software, but then again how much is data integrity worth?
I like to sleep at night, so it's a good investment.

Sage Intelligence Reporting is amazing. We have a certain financial reporting format that we like to use and Sage Intelligence helped set up that format and allows for that template to be saved and simply push a button and your done.

Paperless office could be easier to search and pull up in the actual software for a detailed drill down view.

Easy to use overall. Simple to navigate, the interface is intuitive, and it is easy to reach customer service. Integrates with many PSAs.

Lacks basic features (such as recurring invoices and expenses) that most other options in this field offer.

This only applies to the US version of this software. The UK version appears to be much more fleshed out.

Sage 100c is a user friendly software that integrates the accounting software and warehouse management. The integration helps with productivity and work flow. The partner software is well designed and helps with each module.

The base system needs to be customized at a cost.

I like how user friendly it is. Every item you need to use is laid out in the menu section so you know exactly where to go for which function you want to use. It updates batches quickly and accurately.

The only thing I do not like about Sage 100 is if you have multiple companies/entities under one main company, you have to have separate billing systems for each. You cannot merge vendor information from one company to the next.

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

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.

Integration is easier now that we have the SQL version

Some things are difficult to find, the search button helps with this, but not always. Recently had trouble finding the ACH setup

Easy to use across the board for the most part. That the software is in the cloud and our partner is supportive.

Integration with systems and reporting was a bit troublesome at first with Sage moving to the cloud.

It is very user friendly and layout is very clean and easy to navigate. I like crating working with queries that linked to Sage and this gives you endless options to retrieve needed information.

I do not care for the support company that we are using

This is an excellent product for all our accounting needs. It is also great for generating purchase orders, sales orders, and invoices. It is also great for the general ledger.

I have never had any problems with Sage 100. There is nothing I do not like about it. I plan to continue using this product for years to come.

Ease of use- Easy to figure out. Easy to run reports. Quick to learn for new people but lacks features.

Integrations- Sage does not work with our CRM. Most software I looked into does not work with Sage.

Our support team is great. The software works with very little issues. It allows us to track our workflow through the various modules.

The reporting is very weak without purchasing extra modules. Everything costs a lot of money to add on and the yearly maintenance contract is very expensive.

General Ledger entries are easy to post; notifies if journal entries are not balanced. Recurring entries are useful for repetitive monthly entries.

AR module does not allow for easily posting credits to specific invoices and does not have customer friendly statements

This product can do it all if you have a PHd in databasing!

Difficult to set up and launch. Works great once it is but the training time for my employees was very long. Large corporations would benefit from this overly robust product.

ease to use. have used mainly for inventory control and accounts payable. will continue to use for near future

minor glitches. sometimes cannot figure shortest cut to check for information. May be training issue and not software

Easy to use; Easy to run and customize reports; Good for managing entire small business; Integrates with ADP Payroll and allows for easy GL data dumping.

There is a learning curve with switching to Sage from another software more commonly used (i.e. QuickBooks); Customer service has not handled some issues I have had very well; Backups are not automatic.

The ease of use is the first thing that comes to mind. The Crystal report writer is also a great tool!

It would be great if it uploaded into Excel cleaner.
