### "Powerful Software for Construction Accounting"

August 17, 2017

4.0

After learning the product, I'm not sure I will ever choose a different accounting, PM system for my company.

Pros

Many features for construction companies big and small. There are a lot of different options for this program including accounting, project management, payroll, estimating, etc.

Cons

User interface is tedious and difficult until you learn it well. It is an expensive program to purchase but saves money in the long run.

### "I have been using this product for over 20 years. "

May 7, 2018

5.0

Pros

Assembly takeoffs and easy user modified databases. Easy to train new users and keep all users using the same format. Pricing updates are simple through the database inks. Easy to modify or add new items to the database, or create one time items for oddball things that are not common.

Cons

Merging estimates I lose my main estimate cover page data. Would like to be able to specify which to keep.

### "Sage is a hard program to learn"

March 7, 2018

3.0

This program needs some work

Pros

There are many features that are available and reports that you can generate to find out a lot of information regarding products and customers.

Cons

We have been using SAGE software from well before I started 10 and although our current version is outdated some of the reports pull information that we do not need. I cannot always rely on what is pulled with those reports.

### "Works Well For What I Need"

April 9, 2019

5.0

Pros

That if one module is full you can some times go into Info. Ass. and still get the information you need.

Cons

How Sage does not save the setups that you make. You have to re-select the options every time.

### "This software was so easy to learn and use."

July 20, 2017

5.0

I love using this Sage product and would highly recommend it to anyone.

Pros

Very user friendly - the software is so easy to use that I picked it up right away when I first started and didn't have any training.

Cons

Some modules don't talk to others and that can be confusing. But, I can call in and a friendly rep will walk me through the issue so that it gets fixed and then I know how to do it for next time.

### "Sage 300 CRE Administrator Review"

June 29, 2021

5.0

Overall, it has been great! Not many problems with administrating it and everything works as it should!

Pros

I've been working with managing the Sage 300 CRE Suite that we have at our office for the past 4-5 years and I'd say it is pretty easy to work with! The customer support is great and they always come in handy whenever there are any issues, which is rare. I also update the software every year along with the tax files and it is very simple and easy.

Cons

Not much that I don't like about the software. Never really have any issues and when i do, customer support is always quick and can fix the issues.

### "New Sage 100 Contractor User"

March 16, 2021

4.0

I never mastered Sage 50. Now I am learning Sage 100. I still have not formed a complete opinion on this product.

Pros

It is similar to our previous software. That is why we reviewed this product.

Cons

Previously we had Sage 50 Accounting. Despite the name, these are very different products and how they are used/work.

Reason for choosing Sage Construction Suite

No other products were considered.

### "Great For Construction Job Costing, NOT for Accounting & Bookkeeping"

July 13, 2017

2.0

Pros

It's a good program for job costing and construction type cost accounting. It is also fairly easy to navigate for all other aspects.

Cons

For accounting, specifically, Timberline is not a good interface. There are far too many moving parts to track and some of the modules do not work interchangeably and, therefore, pulling reports that span all departments can't be completed.

### "Has made our company more efficient."

October 6, 2017

4.0

Pros

Easy to use and navigate from screen to screen. Has made our billing way more accurate and efficient.

Cons

Not all of the reporting we would like it there and some is not very beneficial. Payroll stub doesn't show different rates of pay. I also don't like that the use tax doesn't calculate properly and rounds up, so I have to manually calculate in order to balance.

### "Recommended!"

March 31, 2018

4.0

Pros

Sage is an excellent management software. Sage is well organized and well synchronize. The workflow really simplifies things for the user, the software is really flexible and easy to use.

Cons

The process takes quite a long time to process and work. Setting up the software is tad difficult too, other than that it works really well.

### "Great integrated software"

October 5, 2017

5.0

Pros

The integration- My project managers can estimate a project and we can track the job costs and accounting in the same software.

Cons

It hard to teach to others. Not the easiest user interface. People find it confusing. But I make it easy by setting up shortcuts to the tasks they use (clear lien waivers or the couple common job cost reports the project managers use)

### "Mostly positive"

May 4, 2017

4.0

Pros

I believe the software is easy to use and teach to someone. For the most part we receive updates on a timely basis.

Cons

Sometimes we don't receive State information on a timely basis. Also it would be very helpful if Sage would send all customers an email when issues come up like the Pervasive license expiration issue, so we are all aware of problems like that.

### "Great software. Eazy to use, great support from Sage support. "

April 24, 2018

5.0

Pros

Extremely easy to use and navigate in each module. I'm self taught. The implementation process was easy and I was guided by a Sage consultant. When I have had to call Sage support they are kind helpful and always solve/fix the reason for my call.

Cons

When you delete a transaction in any module the history shows as a reversal, I wish it would just disappear.

### "Sage 300 CRE"

September 21, 2017

5.0

Overall we have been using Sage (formerly Timberline - we still call it that) since 2003. Very happy with this product.

Pros

Allows detailed entries into all modules. Sage Knowledgebase has had every answer. The ability to filter is great!

Cons

Sage Knowledgebase search is difficult. Sometime have to word different ways before finding an answer. Can be unforgiving sometimes with errors.

### "Sage is great!"

October 31, 2019

5.0

the Overall experience is great especially how Sage will partner with so many other vendors so they have a solution or a partner for almost any business problem.

Pros

Job cost is king in Sage, I love all the different ways that sage lets you look at your data to help you run your business.

Cons

Sage can run slow on the opening screen, it will run pretty fast once you open an individual application, but if you are running off the main opening screen be prepared for a little lag

### "Wish List"

March 17, 2021

4.0

We all like the ease of use.

Pros

Look and feel. Help button. Been around a long time.

Cons

Would like to be able to journal entry revenue to a job for inter-company billing purposes. Would also like to reimburse employees for job-related expenses on their paycheck and cost code the expense to a job.

Reason for choosing Sage Construction Suite

Ease of transfer of data from American Contractor to Sage 100 Contractor. Also, easiest system for accounting department to learn.

### "Sage"

October 31, 2018

5.0

Overall I really enjoyed Sage

Pros

I love Sage. The reporting from this software is great and doing payroll is so easy. There are quite a few steps but nothing is too intricate. It is great for smaller companies.

Cons

Sometimes the rows will stick, causing the pace of work to slow down.

### "Long time user since inception as Timberline"

October 5, 2017

5.0

Pros

How every facet of a business is all integrated, from Job costing, payroll, accounts payable/receivable and general ledger

Cons

Had the estimating program for awhile. Found it a little cumbersome for a small business as we don't have the personnel to keep the data base up to date on a regular basis. Nice how it integrates with Job Costing however.

### "Fully Integrated Construction Software"

March 28, 2018

4.0

Pros

Field to office integration. Paperless filing, approval, reporting & processing C-Suite products for the Exec functions

Cons

Unless you've integrated with other field software or have previous Sage implementation experience, a custom install from a Sage rep can be costly. Not as user friendly to those that have no Sage Construction experience.

### "Gets the Job done, but has some issues"

April 12, 2017

3.0

From the accounting standpoint, Sage 300 offers everything you would need to get the job done at a basic level from a general contractor's standpoint. However, the adaptability of the software is very poor and there are features that have been locked in which either do not make sense or make reconciling or reviewing your work extremely difficult (more than necessary).

Pros

Has Progress Billing capabilities

Cons

Doesn't have much else
