Sage 300 Reviews & Product Details

Sage offers a lot of functionality and, compared to other tools on the market, it feels ahead of the game even though the look and feel is a bit dated. It also integrates with many different software platforms, including our current project management software.

I especially like how easy it is to jump in and make edits to project budgets. There’s a lot of flexibility in how you set things up, with plenty of options for the different columns you can use. We also have really good pricing at this point compared to other ERPs on the market.

Overall, the system works well for what it’s intended to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It has a very outdated look and feel, and its integrations with other systems are quite limited.

Because it’s an older system, it can be difficult to navigate at times, and certain modules are slow to load. As a result, modules will sometimes time out or lock up. We also run into challenges when working with support, since the system is highly customizable. That often means the reps don’t know how to troubleshoot a report, especially when it was built by a consultant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Sage 300 to be incredibly valuable for handling complex payroll processes. It's customizable and supports our needs for NY Prevailing wages and handling different locations. The system allows us to pay different employees various hourly wages accurately from the start, which saves time and boosts confidence in the payroll department. We tried other payroll systems, but only Sage 300 had the capability to handle such diverse and certified classes efficiently, making it a good fit for our company's needs.

Sage 300 is very manual and outdated. It's not worse, just slower and requires a lot of manpower to make it work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's an affordable ERP that is good with accounting. It's easy to learn how to use and set up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is limited in its capabilities for handling production and overseas importing. It is unable to handle many of the EDI transactions other, more expensive, ERP systems can handle. It can be glitchy at times and does not perform well if using a Mac. Building custom reports is difficult and normally requires a 3rd party to have one built.

One of the strongest selling points is its ability to manage complex global operations. It handles multiple companies, different currencies, and localized tax requirements within a single interface, making consolidated reporting significantly easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface often feels like a relic from the late 90s or early 2000s. It lacks the intuitive, "modern" feel of web-native ERPs, and navigating through multiple nested menus and pop-up windows can be cumbersome for new users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a finance professional, what I like most about Sage 300 is that it covers most of the core accounting functions, with separate modules for accounts payable, accounts receivable, banking, and the GL. It also has a financial reporting option that provides useful financial insights. In addition, it offers the flexibility to integrate with other systems, which makes it easier to fit into existing processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’d say the main drawback is the outdated system. However, the good thing is that it offers an upgrade option, which would be great for an organization with dedicated IT support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Sage 300cloud because it keeps everything organized in one system. I can see our finances, stock, and orders all in one place, and I'm able to pull reports for management. Having everything organized saves us a lot of time since I can quickly see invoices, stock, and orders, which reduces mistakes and makes planning and reporting easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The main thing that doesn't work as well is that some processes are slow and not very intuitive, especially for new users. Setting up reports or customizing certain features can take time, and the interface could be easier to navigate. The initial setup of Sage 300cloud was a bit complicated and time-consuming, needing guidance to ensure everything was configured correctly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s compatible with other apps and very user-friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Exporting from Sage, I’ve found it’s outdated and doesn’t work well with newer versions of Excel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sage 300 is great software for businesses in the construction industry or for those who are in job cost accounting in general. It's user friendly software and the modules are simple, but they're designed to have the essentials needed for accounting functions. Sage 300 is software I've been using for about 5 years now with two different employers with two completely different sale of services, but using it at both companies allowed me to see how adaptable the software is, while allowing me to tweak certain reports or create new ones based on need.

Things I dislike about Sage 300:

* Can't edit the invoice date in the Adjust Receivables module

* I dislike that the character count is 10 for payment references, would like a few more characters; I think 15 would make me satisfied Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
