### "Good Product for a Small-Medium Size Construction Company"

November 15, 2018

4.0

For AP/AR/payroll the product provides us with good tools that we need to manage the books. Our accounting/admin dept. is mostly all just trained from within without much outside help except when we try to do new things. Overall if there was a 3.5 I'd give it that.

Pros

The ease in which I was able to get up to speed on the product. I have little accounting experience and the layout was pretty easy for me to get a handle of. I was quickly able to navigate to the proper menus/places because it just seemed intuitive.

Cons

The product is a good product but it seemed that whenever we have "technical" issues it takes forever to fix. We don't have an in house it guy and he often seems to have to jump through hoops to get the problem solved.

### "Complicated but Worth It"

February 24, 2017

4.0

It is a bit complicated, but there are a lot of different resources that they have to help those with training. Of course, there is a charge for some services which is why it may not be good for small businesses. We are a small business and it really helps keep things organized but it is expensive for us right now. So far we have not gone live yet, so there is not much that I can say regarding the use on a day to day basis.

### "Three years from implementation/transition from QuickBooks."

September 17, 2014

4.0

Pros

Ease of use and ability to customize. The product is continually improving and keeping up with the technology in the market. Sage Summit was eye-opening; it's great to see what is in store for the future of Sage.

Cons

Reporting is not easy to customize without knowing code to write in Crystal Reports. Downloading into Excel is very difficult. We have to download to text files and manipulate which can result in corrupted data. ODBC queries are helpful but too large to manage at times.

### "Teaching Sage to the workforce"

August 25, 2014

5.0

Pros

Sage's Timberline Estimating allows more flexibility in all aspects of estimating. From building specific items to substituting items, working with smart assemblies, and modeling, there is no other system that I have used that lets me customize the materials, subcontractors, and crews the way Sage does. The support received from Sage is top-notch.

Cons

The upfront time in loading in and customizing the database consumes a lot of time. Once in place, the time savings are incredible!

### "Full charge bookkeeper with 6 years on Sage 100 Contractor"

September 15, 2014

4.5

Pros

I like the ease of use (I love making my own reports) and support from Sage City, the knowledge base, Sage Summit, Sage University and Sage employees.

Cons

I can't modify some reports. It's time consuming to get info out of Sage into existing Excel spreadsheets (a 3rd-party software is required) and setting security for each user (as in what they are or are not allowed to access). It would be nice to have one screen for each section with check-off boxes for access control.

### "A very robust accounting and estimating software for constuction companies"

April 2, 2019

4.0

Cons

It can be very complicated to set up and migrate to new servers.

### "Perfect software"

January 5, 2017

5.0

We have had Timberline/Sage software since 2000. It works perfectly for our construction business. Sage continually updates their software to make it even easier to use with more information.

Pros

Ease of use and how all modules are integrated.

Cons

Crystal reports. We don't have anyone trained on that or it would be great.

### "Comprehensive features, ugly and awkward interface."

April 27, 2016

3.0

Pros

We tried half a dozen vendors while searching for the best one for us. This is the most comprehensive construction management software I've tried. The Request for quote system is the best (ie simple) of all we tried. Most required every trade/vender to create an account - this sends out the email with the unique link to the job files. Almost everything we wanted to be able to do, this software does.

Cons

Its an ugly and awkward interface - and most of all, the app is difficult to use. This was the main reason we couldn't stick with it. Its hard enough to get site staff to use an app, this one was difficult to navigate - so the guys wouldn't use it.

### "Perfect tool for construction management "

September 20, 2016

5.0

Pros

It helps me on Asset Management a lot. Exceptionally strong for subcontractor management and complex payroll situations.

Cons

No simple way to extract the data you need. It's also a lit bit slow to setup. It also take you a long time to be proficient on it, but once you are good on it, it's really a good tool.

November 9, 2016

5.0

Sage does what it claims. High levels of product stability and flexibility. It supports remote access and nightly back-up operations. It also connects to the Sage Data Cloud, allowing companies to connect to multiple Web and mobile services. I'm fully satisfied with the product though they are some cons but they are improving constantly.

### "Have used the product since 1996."

September 5, 2014

4.0

Pros

I like the interface and connectivity of all modules. I only have to process one function to get all aspects (e.g., job cost, A/P, A/R, General Ledger Payroll). It's updated continuously.

Cons

There are many ways to achieve tasks. That can be intimidating, especially when training someone new or on something new. It's very difficult to modify major decisions (e.g., general ledger account #'s, vendor ID's etc.) without recreating and starting from scratch.

### "Review of Sage 300"

October 11, 2016

4.0

I've been a user of Sage 300 for almost 10 years, and there have been no changes (for better or worse) since i've used it.

Pros

\- Fairly reliable and does not crash that often

Cons

\- UI is not intuitive and not friendly towards new users - Modules do not always communicate with each other (ie: CM)

May 29, 2014

4.0

Pros

They have a great help line. Most of them are extremely knowledgeable about their product, and they offer helpful suggestions. I believe the product will provide us the type of job cost information, etc. needed for us to fully see the scope of our projects.

Cons

When you want to look up something, such as a check register, you have to do it through running a report. I am used to just being able to hit a Check Register button to see this information.

### "BEST CONSTRUCTION ACCOUNTING SOFTWARE OUT THERE !"

February 8, 2018

5.0

Have been a user for over 30 years, dos based till current

Pros

Very user friendly, the help button and the knowledge base are awesome places to go to when you need help in finding an answer to how to. Each application is easy to do the work flow. If you make an error in any one entry, the process to fix the mistake or the entry to reverse the error is a very easy step in all of the applications. I love the software!!

Cons

My only issue is job cost is not user friendly with cash management in respect to if you enter a line item job cost that affects cash then you also have to enter the same in cash management to stay in balance.

### "Sage 100 Review"

January 5, 2017

1.0

Sage 100 is super easy to use, easy to learn and is, overall, a great software. I used to use other software and Sage 100 is so much better. It only cuts joint checks and spits out awesome job cost reports. I highly recommend it.

Pros

It's easy to use

Cons

I wish it had a good joint check report. I had to build my own.

### "Review of Sage"

January 16, 2017

3.0

This is a challenging program to learn and the help topics are not helpful at all. I found it very time-consuming to try to locate a subject on my own.

Pros

Not sure on pros; hard program to learn.

Cons

The multiple steps it takes to set up a new job. Can take up to an hour to do a complete job set up.

### "Sage 100"

November 7, 2017

4.0

Pros

I like that you can run custom reports. Using the time tickets makes it easy to go back and see who was on what job and when.

Cons

old checks change in the register if the person gets a raise. Also if you add a new employee field its gets clicked off in everyone's employee card.

Accounting modules such as accounts payable, general ledger, accounts receivable, and payroll processing, alongside more industry-specific capabilities

Software easy to set up and use. Consultant and IT technician knowledgeable and personable. Answered any and all questions.

i have been using this product for over 10 years.

Pros

Easy of moving from one section of the software to the next. Easy to find what your looking for.

Cons

Searches could be better. They only look at the beginning of the word instead of anywhere in the field.

### "Complicated, Yet Effective"

November 18, 2016

5.0

Sage 300 is an extremely useful document control software in the construction industry. While it may be a bit intimidating and difficult to use in the beginning, once you get a good feel for it, you realize how effective this software is in managing construction related documents such as submittals, RFIs, contract documents, etc, as well as keeping track of finances such as overall project budgets, tracking client and subcontractor billing, and tracking general conditions. Overall, this product is very useful and I would recommend it to anyone in the industry.

### "Timberline Software"

October 11, 2016

3.0

I worked with Timberline Construction Accounting software for 5 years and found the adaptability for a new user to be difficult and not self-explanatory. The system did not "speak" to many other softwares in order to convert information from one system to another.

Pros

Clear reporting

Cons

Ease of use, training

I have been estimating commercial construction projects for the past 15 years. If you are on the fence with estimating software, look no further than Timberline. I have tried them all and none of them are as fast and refined as Timberline. Other companies put on a good sales show but the application doesn't measure up. We actually spent about $15k on a company's software licenses, and after using it we found it to be slow and klunky. How good is Sage Timberline Estimating? Well, we walked away from $15k to use Timberline. Yeah, it's that good.

### "Sage CRE meets our needs"

August 29, 2014

4.0

Pros

The focus on the construction industry with Sage CRE has been great. I'm a long-time user, and Sage seems to be reenergized with some of their product offerings and the user community, Sage City, which offers user-to-user assistance, with Sage staff providing assistance as well at no additional support cost.

Cons

I'm looking forward to more cloud-connected services, especially Project Management for our field-based operation users.
