Sage 100 Erfahrungen

Umfangreiche Lösung mit Schwächen in der Bedienung und im Einkauf

Kommentare: Komplexes System,von dem wir als kelinere Firma nur einen geringen Teil nutzen, dieser funktioniert aber einwandfrei. Leider ist die Eingabe von Daten und Text bze. die Benutzerführung dabei oft (zu) umständlich.

Vorteile:

Sehr umfangreicher Funktionsumfang, für uns als ERP-System völlig ausreichend, sehr variable und vielfältige Auskunftmöglichkeiten

Nachteile:

Bedienung/Eingabe von Daten ist oft (zu) umständlich, zu wenig Dokumentationsmöglichkeiten/keine Historie bei Einkaufsdaten

Gute Software zum guten Preis

Kommentare: Aufgrund der sehr unterschiedlichen Anforderungen unserer Kunden an die Angaben auf unseren Rechnungen ist Sage 100 hervorragend.

Vorteile:

Entscheidend für die Einführung der Vorgängerprodukte von Sage 100 und den Umstieg auf Sage 100 war die große Vielfalt an Möglichkeiten, Informationen auf den Rechnungen zu erfassen. Diese Gestaltungs-möglichkeiten waren, neben der Erfüllung der üblichen Voraussetzungen und einem angemessenen Preis, für meine Entscheidung grundlegend.

Nachteile:

Eigentlich gibt es keine Nachteile. Alles, was wir brauchen, ist bestens abgebildet.

Sage 100 for buisness gurus

Vorteile:

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.

Nachteile:

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

Industry-Specific ERP Solutions.

Kommentare: Automation of reconciliation and reporting significantly reduces manual labor and minimizes the risk of errors.

Vorteile:

Excellent customer support ensures issues are resolved quickly. Comes with unlimited customization options which helps to meet specific business needs. Features like wide range of pre-built integrations and native connections other products makes it the ideal choice for sensitive data. Has a robust security and compliance dashboard.

Nachteile:

Sage 100 can be expensive for smaller teams. Also the lack of a free trial version limits users who would opt to test the product first before purchasing it.

Software is bad, service partner is worse.

Kommentare: outdated technology, lack of transparency, psuedo subscription without meaningful updates. Poor quality of the service partner network leaves much to be desired.

Vorteile:

the name of the software. But don't be fooled by that.

Nachteile:

On paper it has all the functionalities. In reality none of them works properly. You endup with countless customizations from a Sage partner and become very dependent on their partner. They are neither good nor cheap.

Payroll Administration/ Data Entry

Kommentare: Love to work with it, I spend the whole day inputting information.

Vorteile:

Very simple to use, from the first day I started working with it.

Nachteile:

The online help needs to be explaining a little better.

A Must for Any Accounting Department!

Kommentare: I use Sage 100 on a daily basis. When I got this job, it was my first time working in this program and I was a little intimidated, but once I sat down and started navigating through the different modules, I could see that it was not going to be a problem to use at all!

Vorteile:

It's very simple and straight forward and easy to use. It's not convoluted with a bunch of unnecessary features. It also has a lot of useful resources and help guides right there if you need them.

Nachteile:

I'm not sure of the ease of integration with other products. I think it was attempted but not followed through on.

Sage Live Saver 1000

Kommentare: 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.

Vorteile:

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

Nachteile:

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.

good starting point

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

Vorteile:

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

Nachteile:

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.

SAGE Software Review

Kommentare: It was ok, but not a fan of it for daily use.

Vorteile:

Not difficult to use, once you got used to it.

Nachteile:

The software would shut down for no reason.

Sage 100 Accounting Software is Easy to Manage!

Kommentare: I have been supporting Sage 100 for years and able to maintain and patch on our schedule to accommodate us better.

Vorteile:

I like the interface and setup of Sage 100. It makes it helpful to control the maintenance and patching of the servers locally.

Nachteile:

There are times when we would like to have more support for local resources and have not been able to find it.

Great Beginner Friendly Software

Kommentare: It worked well for a time, but ultimately didn’t work for our company

Vorteile:

Very user friendly; straightforward interfacing

Nachteile:

It was hard for my accountant to access remotely; didn’t integrate seemlessly with their processkng

Perfect ERP Software for medium sized businesses

Kommentare: We have been with Sage for almost 7 years and it has saved us much time and money. Our old software was clunky and not customizable. We are able to now do multiple tasks at the same time, even within different companies.

Vorteile:

Ease of use, ease of customization. Excellent customer support, excellent value for the money. Great for organizations with multiple entities - ability to switch between companies/work in different companies at the same time.

Nachteile:

After a sales order is completed, you cannot "resurrect" it - you must generate a new number and "copy" the old sales order from history.

I use it daily... I couldnt be without it

Kommentare: I enjoy its capabilities.

Vorteile:

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

Nachteile:

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

My experience with sage 100

Kommentare: Although i wasn't in the team when they chose Sage100, but my exprience with it was smooth and secure, never had a technical error with it

Vorteile:

The various buisness fuctions, the customization, the sacalability and the interface

Nachteile:

Mainly the cost, and somehow the limited cloud options

Business Accounting Software Tool

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

Vorteile:

Sage is way cheaper compared with competitors in the market.

Nachteile:

It has less user-friendly compared with quickbooks.

Best Accounting Software

Vorteile:

Used Sage 100 for over 10 years across 2 different businesses. It is the best overall Accounting software that I have used. It is highly customizable and offers all of the features necessary to successfully manage all aspects of our company.

Nachteile:

CRM integration would be the best addition that could be added to Sage 100. A single point of access rather than different software.

Too expensive renewal

Vorteile:

as of now they still allow non cloud version.

Nachteile:

Each time to renewal a price hiking from at least 10%. We only use GL and it ways to expensive

Practical for commercial enterprises

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

Vorteile:

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

Nachteile:

software a little general, too genericAlittle expensive

Sage 100c 2017 - 2019 review

Kommentare: Company replaced Platinum for DOS which had been in place for 20+ years. So moving to Sage 100c and having the ability to drill down into the data is a great feature. Being able to email invoices/purchase orders have improved the productivity of employees (they no longer have to go look for hard copies).

Vorteile:

First off is the User Define Fields (UDF), if a field is not in the software or you have something unique that needs to be captured, as an end user you can add the field without custom programming or use of a VAR. The next feature would be Visual Integrator (Import/Export utility), this feature is great for either uploading data into Sage or exporting data for analysis. Memo Fields are great! Paperless Office is great along with the ability to email invoices, purchase orders, etc. Sage Intelligence is a love/hate relationship: Very easy to build reports, but the runtime for running reports takes a long time (i.e. most of my reports 1-2 minutes) versus the standard Sage financial reports of 10-15 seconds.

Nachteile:

The Extended Description for inventory items. For the life of me, not sure why Sage still uses the Extended Description in inventory. This makes it very difficult for data imports or exports. If your company does drop shipments then really understand how it works. On the inventory side you end up with a black hole. Moving invoices from one batch to another is limited utility due to no one can be in the batch, so we end up moving invoices after hours. When running the Period End process for a module locks users out, so this normally has to be done during none business hours. Sage is weak in the inventory physical count area (i.e. cycle counting).

Fortunately this version has been upgraded

Kommentare: I work in the manufacturing industry, specifically a foundry in Chicago.
Several factors bias my experience with MAS90/Sage 100. I was introduced to the software with no training or reference guide because the woman before me left suddenly and without any documentation. In a certain perspective that speaks well of this product in that simply by internet research and experimentation, as well as a few call to our highly paid "Sage" support line, I have been able to work with the system adequately.
I would love to upgrade to a new version of this Sage product and imagine that it is very likely a much cleaner and straight forward operating system
For instance, the difference between reversing a check and simply reversing the G/L transaction are two different procedures and a third procedure to void a check that has never been issued is a different procedure entirely from voiding a check that you have placed a stop payment on. In a sense, these five distinctions would be ideal for a precise audit trail if the procedures themselves were not extremely complex and vague to distinguish.
The General Leger reports are clear and are in themselves user friendly in offering the opportunity to easily make accrued and adjusting entries.
I would certainly encourage anyone to investigate the newer versions of Sage in consideration of their industry specific needs.
We have not created a direct interface between our receivables data base "Exact" directly into MAS 90 due to the particular need to maintain specific Alloy/Customer information and our small company simply lacks the time and technical understanding to do so.
Again my situation is severely biased due to my particular circumstances and I believe a newer version of Sage may very likely be an excellent ERP.

Vorteile:

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.

Nachteile:

A complete mire of ambiguity when it comes to the Accounts Payable component in this ancient version by Sage:MAS 90

Great software for a small growing business

Kommentare: There have been some nice improvements in the 18 years we have been using Sage 100/MAS90. It is not cheap, but gets the job done. They must continue to use customer feedback to make the right improvements to the software and not change features users heavily rely on.

Vorteile:

Customer service has been great. They do everything they can to help resolve issues. Sage’s scalability has allowed the software to grow along with our needs. 3rd Party software works best if has partnered with Sage to get updates that allow for testing prior to a new update being released.

Nachteile:

It seems that along with some enhancements you get when upgrading, you may lose some functionality such as when printing travelers that now require more steps to complete. Custom reports and integrations can be costly because a Sage reseller is needed for support.

Many features, Poor execution

Kommentare: Many bells and whistles but too complicated for most users.

Vorteile:

The production management module helps us keep track of all inventoried products and our built product. It can be easy to use if you know what you are doing. Being able to have different dates used per module is useful when you are able to use them properly.

Nachteile:

There is a lot of background "stuff" that happens without you knowing. Also, unless you notice a discrepancy, the software will not tell you about it. We have had to rebuild the sort files in order to have the proper inventory show up. The software also gives errors often which requires you to redo the work you completed

Software that is easy to customize to fit your exact needs

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

Vorteile:

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.

Nachteile:

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

Kommentare: 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.

Vorteile:

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.

Nachteile:

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.
