-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 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

-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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If I can figure out a highly antiquated version of their product without internal direction and assistance, I suspect the newer versions of Sage can only be fat superior. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

User interface is easy to follow and understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Reports are difficult to modify. Data is kept in different tables and sometimes difficult to find. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm sure the support is excellent, but I choose not to use the cloud. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like the idea of no longer having ownership of the program. If you are late on your subscription payment, you are locked out. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use and simple layout. Very self explanitory Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

not a very robust system and has a few nuances that make it annoying to use Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Use of Visual Integrator and Inventory advisor included Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Have not encountered any issues as yet. So far what I have learned through Sage University is fairly clear. Any issues are resolved through our third party support, Blytheco Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

everything is broken down in modules for you to easily navigate through the software. reporting is also easy to get. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

credit memos aren’t as easy to make compare to other accounting softwares Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing I like about the tool is its versatility, It helps all stakeholders access information at the same time without hassles. Provides a neat flow of data from production/manufacturing to accounting/finance . Overall a great package for any accounting system to have. Has many features which have really help boost performance and minimize data retrieval times. Another great feature is its simple UI which is very easy to navigate and use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the drawbacks is that there is a lot of data cleaning needed after export from the tool which needs a skilled Excel Expert. Also when the data sizes are huge (>100MB) the data export is a pretty slow and cumbersome process. It would be great if there is a way to increase the speed of retrieval for such huge processes.Has limitations on number of windows which can be opened simultaneously Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like how easy it is to use. It makes my work day go by a lot faster. Everything is organized and easily accessible. Very easy to learn. Any mistake I may make, it is very easy to fix and get back on track. Over all, sage 100 helps with logistics of our business, stock and restock information, client payments and overdue balances. We as a business look more professional, organized and productive. Sage helps us with communication with not only our clients, but also our co-workers. Keeping track of our clients and providing them with great service is our goal. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Closing customer maintenance window each time I need to look up another customer. When entering payment, I need to be very careful when flowing step sequence to process a payment. I would hope that one day sage can notify me when a client makes a payment or a deposit. I wish those sides could merge together in some way to help us keep track of payments, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
