Property Manager Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Simple to use, yet an accurate accounting tool" February 28, 2017 4.0 We are a mid size property management company located on the Northshore of Massachusetts. Our condominium client list is a composition of business and residential complexes. The Sage product gives us the flexibility to manage the day to day account activity, along with the accountability and flexibility to oversee the billing aspects which occur as a result of the various service request we receive daily. Our staff consist of management professions, account and billing personnel. Everyone in our organization has exposure to the Sage product even our administrative staff, who are often required to utilize the Sage product to verify client billing and invoices. It is a simple yet effective accounting and administrative product that works well for a company of our size. Pros Effective, yet simple to understand and utilize Cons Doesn't have the fancy looking categories. It's just plain and simple Review Source JN Jordan N. Operations Analyst Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "The Toyota Corolla. Not fancy, but efficient and reliable." August 8, 2020 4.0 Efficient. It works. Lots of features. Reliable. Pros It's reliable and it's a great way to organize data. I like that I can pull data into Excel with a Microsoft Query and have multiple tables to get information from, such as invoice history, purchase order, sales order, and item information. Cons It's ancient looking. The aesthetics of the software in Classic View is not modern at all. However, it gets the job done and it's very efficient. Switched from [NetSuite](https://www.capterra.com/p/135757/NetSuite/) We were using Sage, then we moved to NetSuite for about 6 weeks, and then we switched back because shipments were not going out from what I heard.

Owner Information Technology and Services Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Easy to Use but Lacks Features" September 6, 2019 3.0 It was quickly apparent that Sage was not a good fit for my company even though it was easy to figure out and integrated with many PSAs that I was considering at the time, I just wasn't able to use the US version for what I needed. Pros Easy to use overall. Simple to navigate, the interface is intuitive, and it is easy to reach customer service. Integrates with many PSAs. Cons Lacks basic features (such as recurring invoices and expenses) that most other options in this field offer. This only applies to the US version of this software. The UK version appears to be much more fleshed out. Alternatives considered [FreshBooks](https://www.capterra.com/p/142390/FreshBooks/)[QuickBooks Online](https://www.capterra.com/p/190778/QuickBooks-Online/)[Xero](https://www.capterra.com/p/120109/Xero/) Reason for choosing Sage 100 I did not end up using Sage due to the aforementioned issues and lack of features. I went through the trial but in the end decided it wasn't a good fit. Switched from [Zoho Books](https://www.capterra.com/p/163115/Zoho-Books/) Zoho Books had some quirks that I found to be frustrating. Review Source CS Christine S. Manager of Finance & IT Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "It works" May 15, 2020 3.0 We have Sage 100c...not cloud. Pros What I like most about this software is that it's not worse. I've used worse, but I have definitely used better. Cons This software is not easily customizable. Some simple things that could be better are just a pain. For example, posting entries, one should never have to go through several steps to post every single time. I've worked with softwares where you can set it to the level of steps you want. If you want to print and post, you should be able to do that all in one step. Review Source KF Kathy F. Consultant Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Director of Finance" March 21, 2018 5.0 Master programmers and software support is available across the US. If you don't like your support group, you can easily hire another. No need to convert software solutions. Pros This software is easily customizable at install AND it is reliable. The software updates are rarely a problem; no need to wait for other users to test and work out the bugs found in some software updates. Cons Module pricing is a little more costly than other software, but then again how much is data integrity worth? I like to sleep at night, so it's a good investment. Review Source DS Don S. Software Consultant Management Consulting Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Affodable step up from Quickbooks" December 12, 2016 4.0 i have used a variety of ERP software packages in my career, including Quickbooks and Microft Dynmaics' Navision, and Sage 100 provides a full feaured ERP package at an affordable price. Cost's per user for a month's subscription for the Essentials core accounting package (GL, AP, AR, Bank Reconciliation) and a little more for the Advanced Bundle (Essentials plus Inventory, Purchasing, and Sales Order), and more for the Complete Bundle (Essentials plus Bar Code, Return Materials Authorization, and Bill of Materials). For manufacturing, you can add the Complete Plus Bundle (Work Order, MRP, Job Cost, and Time Card). There are additional add-on modules such as Paryoll with Direct Deposit, 100c Manufacturing (formerly JobOps), CRM, Sage Intelligence Reporting, and eBusiness Web Services. Each package includes Library Master, Business Insights (Drill Down Inquiry, Reporting, and Dashboard), Paperless Office, Custom Office (to create User Defined Fields and customized screens), Visual Integrator (to Export and Import data to/from Excel and Sage), and Crystal Reports. The Windows Explorer type menus make navigation easy, and the workflow follows the menus. Sage 100 is designed for 1 to 50 users, and supported the creation of multiple business entities or companies. The software has many configuration options, and can be tailored to the company's use, so because it is flexible there is also a learning curve due to its sophistication. Sage has been the number one accounting software recommended by CPA's for many years. Pros Affordable, flexible, stable data base, excellent module integration. Cons Does not have a Point of Sale option, or a full featured Web Store, or user friendly API tool. Review Source ÓS Óscar S. Responsable de operaciones Environmental Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Práctico y fácilmente personalizable" December 13, 2022 5.0 Pros Lo visual que es, lo fácil que es manejarlo, las opciones que tenemos de poder desarrollar funciones por nosotros mismos. Cons El tiempo que hemos tardado en migrar la información desde el antiguo ERP Review Source JT Joleen T. Office Manager Construction Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "2020 Review of Sage 100 Cloud" May 15, 2020 5.0 Overall we are very pleased with Sage 100 cloud. Our IT consultant finds it easy to help us trouble shooting if needed, and customer service has been very helpful. We have also found it easy to adapt to our company needs. The upgrade to Sage 100cloud was seamless. Pros The product is user friendly, the pull down windows are very helpful for new employees. New employees were easily trained to use the product. Cons It would be a great enhancement if all reports would not close after print/print preview. Our checks are not standard laser printer checks, and it was a little challenging to set up to print correctly. Smart printers would not allow the adjustments. Final fix was to purchase an inexpensive printer. Review Source CE CHERRY E. OFFICE ADMIN Transportation/Trucking/Railroad Used the software for: 2+ years ### "EXCELLENT SOFTWARE" May 15, 2020 5.0 ALOT Pros EVERYTHING EASE OF WORKING .. BALANCING BOOKS Cons PAYROLL - YOU HAVE TO RUN 2 DIFFERENT PAY PERIODS SEPARATE Alternatives considered [Sage 100](https://www.capterra.com/p/227232/Sage-100cloud/) Review Source DH Denise H. Billing & Finance Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Why I like Sage" May 7, 2020 5.0 Pros I like how easy it is to get the information that I need when I need it. Reports are easy to read and understand. It is very easy to maneuver around. Cons Before we upgraded to a newer version I liked the way my reports printed off. Some of the reports went to landscape and some stayed portrait. With it doing that some of my reports are more pages. Review Source HH Heather H. Accounting Manager Food Production Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Mas 100 modules" February 23, 2021 5.0 Pros The modules all use the same format and features. When a user is familiar with one module it is easy to learn to use all the modules. Cons For our company, we use several custom reports that are cumbersome, difficult to create, and time consuming. Review Source TD Trey D. HR Manager Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good program" November 27, 2018 4.0 Pros There seems to be a module for just about everything we need to within out company, which is very nice. It was pretty easy to learn with just a little bit of practice, much of it is self explanatory to new users! I do believe that ease of use is a major pro for Sage 100. I'm pleased with amount of data/reports we can process and print out, the information we need is almost always at our finger tips. Cons With multiple people using this throughout our organization, it'd be nice if two people could be in the same module at once. We're constantly going door to door trying to figure out who's in a certain module and when they'll be out of it. We reference a pay rate change report often, every time we click out of it, it asks if we want to purge all the files. Someone will accidentally click it someday- why would we want to do that? I also find myself getting a number of errors and the program shutting down on me. Often times if I shut my computer down and try again it'll work correctly when I open it back up. Review Source BL Bao L. IT Construction Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Too expensive renewal" May 5, 2023 3.0 Pros as of now they still allow non cloud version. Cons Each time to renewal a price hiking from at least 10%. We only use GL and it ways to expensive Review Source SD Sefa D. Engineer Electrical/Electronic Manufacturing Used the software for: 2+ years ### "My daily must at work" July 24, 2019 5.0 Pros I have been using Sage Mas90 for more than 9 years. We are a manufacturing company and many of our data are entered or stored in this program. We have our Bill of materials, accounting stuff, customer information in this program and we update or write data in daily basis. I use it mostly for pulling data and using it for building our product. Without it things would be very unorganized and hard to manage. Cons For the purpose i use it as an engineer, i have no problem. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Accounts Receivable Specialist Automotive Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Not the best.." September 26, 2019 3.0 Overall, I am unimpressed with Sage 100. I have not found it to be helpful or beneficial to my daily usage. I would not have chosen this software for my company. Pros The only thing that I like about this software is the modules. It does make it easier to find the specific feature that I am looking for, for example entering a purchase order or searching for a vendor. Cons I am unaware if this software has the ability to copy previous transactions, at this point I have not yet found that it can. I do not like that there is not a system information feature to view who created what with timestamp. I also do not like that there is not the option to import/upload supporting transaction documents, for example the quote for a purchase order or vendor application for a new vendor. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Billing Specialist Accounting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Excellent software " October 17, 2018 5.0 I enjoyed using Sage. It was very easy to learn and easy to navigate. Within a week of training, the employees were able to use the software fully. I like how there is so much you can do with the program. I would highly recommend this software. Pros Sage is easy to navigate and easy to learn. There is so much that you can do with the program, it was very useful in my Billing Department. Cons I don't really have any cons about the software Review Source BE Brad E. Controller Sports Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Sports Industry" May 11, 2020 4.0 Sage 100 cloud has made it easier to track COVID refunds and losses by the ease to set up different accounts or departments to track those. Pros Sage Intelligence Reporting is amazing. We have a certain financial reporting format that we like to use and Sage Intelligence helped set up that format and allows for that template to be saved and simply push a button and your done. Cons Paperless office could be easier to search and pull up in the actual software for a detailed drill down view. Review Source WB William B. Accounting Manager Hospital & Health Care Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Sage Review" May 7, 2020 4.0 Overall, Sage has been a good experience. It doesn't work well over a VPN connection, so it is difficult to work from home, but other than that, I haven't had any bad experiences with Sage 100c. Pros The ease of use of this software is what I like most about it. We only use the GL & AP modules and I haven't experienced any issues with those modules. Cons The software really needs a real cloud-based version that does not have to be installed on a server. The name Sage 100cloud is really misleading. Review Source AG Anneliese G. Products and Warehouse manager Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Sage 100c at the Non-Profit" May 14, 2019 4.0 I have used Sage for over 20 years and I am very impressed with how the system has evolved with the change in technology. As a new user it was easy to navigate and as an experienced user there is always more to explore. Pros Sage 100c is a user friendly software that integrates the accounting software and warehouse management. The integration helps with productivity and work flow. The partner software is well designed and helps with each module. Cons The base system needs to be customized at a cost. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Senior Tax Accountant Financial Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "For simple and portable accounting needs" August 28, 2018 4.0 Pros Sage is an accounting software with more than enough features for simple accounting tasks. It is highly recommended for small inputs. It is applicable for tax management which I think, most software lack. VAT reports and filing is possible with this software. Expense tracking and cash management, amongst other features of this software, are another features of this software that I use both personally and for work. Sage is just easy and simple. Its app availability is also a great plus. Cons I have found that slow internet connection also slows output for this software which is really hard if you are trying to reach a quota. But it is still highly capable of its work depending on your internet connection. Review Source BB Brent B. Lab Specialist Chemicals Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Manufacturing Standpoint" May 14, 2019 3.0 Pros History look ups, built in checks, security management, ease of entering formulas Cons Where we are at now is very manual and repetitive when moving from location to location in our process. Repeating the work order entry to move from step to step. We have looked into the WO Scan option but it didn't fit our process. I am hoping the new production manager helps solve these issues and is a overall more user friendly and robust program Review Source JM Jessica M. Accounts Payable Accounting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Sage 100 Is A O.K.!" December 14, 2018 5.0 Pros I like how user friendly it is. Every item you need to use is laid out in the menu section so you know exactly where to go for which function you want to use. It updates batches quickly and accurately. Cons The only thing I do not like about Sage 100 is if you have multiple companies/entities under one main company, you have to have separate billing systems for each. You cannot merge vendor information from one company to the next. Review Source JG Judi G. HR/Finance/Purchasing Warehousing Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Easy to learn" May 7, 2020 5.0 Now that I have added another role to my resume here - I am finding how this all works together. I only had the accounting piece before. Now I see how my entries in PO will effect what happens when I invoice vendors and when I (occasionally) do the sales orders - I see how that effects the purchasing/invoicing Customers. Pros I came from another company where we used Visual Mfg. Coming here and learning a completely new program made me nervous but, my fears were not warranted. It was very similar which helped me to be able to pick it up quickly. Cons I have no complaints. Maybe after I use it for more than a couple of years I will. Review Source BH Bruce H. COO Wholesale Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Long Time User" May 8, 2020 4.0 Pros The best part of Sage is the flexibility to mold it to your business needs. Like all businesses, we have special needs and as we were able to identify our needs we were able to make Sage fit into them. Cons The interface is clunky. We ended up using Sage mostly for back office needs and creating a website that better presents us with the information on customers and products that is more robust than the standard Sage package. Review Source JS Johnathan S. Business Development Manager Computer Software Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "A solid staple for SMB market" December 3, 2019 3.0 My experience with Sage 100cloud is mostly consultative. I sell systems that integrate with it and hear feedback from end users on a daily basis (6+ years now). For those who have taken the time to plan out their resources and operations, it can be very effective in managing your business-critical data. Pros If you are manufacturing or distribution company that is breaking $5 mil - $10 mil annually, then Sage 100 offers a suite of functionality that can be built out and customized to meet your specific needs. From Accounts Receviable, Payable and your General Ledger to powerful modules for Sales, Inventory, and Production Management, there are a broad range of tools at your disposal that can be Additionally, Sage 100cloud comes with an eco-system of Independent Software Vendors who can seamlessly integrate with your critical data. Sage becomes the primary system of truth for your business, and when configured right, it can be a powerful tool for growing and scaling. Further more, if you connect with the right reseller in the channel, they can guide you and consult with you on best practices to ensure your implementation is successful. Cons Some of it's UI can be clunky and difficult to use. Sage 100 has origins going way back to the 1980s (MAS90), and it can be behind the curve when it comes to things like ease of use and having a clean and simple aesthetic. Their are competitors that have cleaner UI's, but Sage 100 has a history of serving SMB markets in versatile ways, and this doesn't need to be why you don't buy.
