Finally it can produce a report of the activity anytime and the different statistics.

Sage 300

Comments: Overall the program is satisfactory.

Pros:

The modules are easy to use . The screens are easy to navigate and they are user friendly. there is excellent audit tracing for each module.

Cons:

The reports are minimal. The more useful reports require you to purchase a separate license for Sage intelligence which is very expensive. the stock reports require another software program (Crystal reports ) in order to modify them. The set up screens for the customer and vendor screen do not allow for more than one email address which reduces the ability to email directly from Sage. The payroll module does not email EFT check reports to employees. You have to buy another program in order to do this (Print Boss). Overall there is a hefty price tag to purchase all the modules and add on programs to use. If you can stay with Simply, then you should.

The work of SAGE 300 ERP with Me in Lusaka, Zambia

Comments: We were trying to address the issue of going green meaning working in a paperless environment.
We benefit in many ways as we had reduced on stationery cost, and work become faster as processes were integrated in the systems.
It still requires improvement and the environment in which it works does not fully support or become compatible with local Vendors.
The advice I would give to others is that they need careful planning so that they only ask for installation of packages suitable for their environment.

Pros:

It automates manual work of processing purchase orders and eliminates physical postage of paper documents to third party (Suppliers). It integrates separate pieces of transactions into one, making work easy and shorten the overall time spent on processing one simple transaction e.g. Purchase requisition is generated by someone else then converted into a purchase order without altering many details. The system is able to make basic or advanced calculations of cost and taxes hence eliminating the burden of errors and omissions.

Cons:

It is somehow expensive to run as it requires a perpetual subscription to be made. It is a system that cannot just be installed on the PC for a lifetime. Room for improvement is still available because it has a lot of steps (clicking is too much). We could not achieve the go-green aim as most of the time we were printing out physical copies of contracts as the environment in which we used the system did not have many vendors connected to the internet.

Sage 300 Cloud - Works OK - Does not feel like true cloud software

Pros:

It account principles are sound. It is fairly ease to use.

Cons:

Clumsy to Use. Needs to be re written to be true cloud software.

Sage300 and why you should use it

Comments: We use it as our basic accounting package for dealing with all of our vendors and all of our clients.

Pros:

It has all of the basic features of a full accounting system including AP, GL, AR, Sales order, Inventory mgmt.

Cons:

Customization is not simple to do. It is not simple to add new forms or understand the table structures. Table names are very short and obsure.

ultimate cloud financial application software

Comments: good

Pros:

Connection from the cloud server where Sage is hosted to workstation is smooth.

Cons:

2factor authentication should be enforced to login on the client side

Fustrations

Comments: Not used

Pros:

Wide arrange of functionality. Data is well protected from wandering fingers. Security seems good as well. A solid platform that rarely has issues

Cons:

Lack of systems administrator training, outside of the use of your consultant. Little to no self-learning of the real nuts and bolts of the system. The consultant tells me it is to complex to learn that way. This is incorrect I can learn Microsoft SQL that way, the possibility of being way more complex. Data tables are old in structure and hard to function with. For example, I have to use address line 4 for emails because the email field is in a different table. Shipping software integration can read from both. Expensive website integration because of the complexity and lack of standards in the SQL database. It can get expensive because many things require expert assistance and new modules. It does lack the ease of use for retail sales. Opening modules can be slow.

Sage 300Cloud review

Pros:

Pros: Solid audit trail, Easy to use, Reliable business logic

Cons:

Virtually No capability of exporting Master Data (Customer, Vendor, Items) to Excel Virtually No capability to import transactions (Orders, Purchase Orders, Invoice, Payment, etc) from Excel. Not enough default report (Most of the reports are there from Accpac DOS!!!!, where there was no capability to store the data more than 1 year.) Frequent price increase (Netsuite is cheaper than Sage 300)

Functionality

Pros:

Strong Data entry features - Sales order, ICT, AR, AP Customer Inquiry reports drill down - flexible

Cons:

Negative stock quantity can be entered at order detail line and goes undetected so long as the order total remains positive Lack of restriction on Stock Warehouse selection during Order Processing-- There is l no control in place to restrict users to access stocks in specific system warehouse that they are assigned. A user can receive, transfer, sell stock in any warehouse in the system without any restriction How to handle PO Cancellations not available Reporting (supplier activity reports) not detailed as like provided in Accounts Receivable Difficulty is posting of Discount allowed to customers into General Ledger Suppliers Inquiry reports drill down -NOT flexible

Average performance

Comments: It is an average accounting system but need to offer more user-friendly reporting features,

Pros:

It is good upgrade from ACCPAC when we moved over to Sage 300. Some sort of continuity is allowed for the users. It performed generally satisfactorily.

Cons:

Need to do more customization on financial reporting and daily transaction processing reports.

REVIEW

Pros:

RECEIVING-PAYMENT EASE USING THE SOFTWARE FOR THESE FEATURES IS EASY

Cons:

REPORT FEATURES i WISH IT HAD MORE REPORTS AND FASTER LOAD TIMES

Sage 300 epr

Comments: An advanced software that any account must have in the business

Pros:

Sage was recommended to once implemented it was easy to use from day one. Fast and simple to use. clear useful data which instantly made a positive impact on our business. it saved us time and money within its first month of use brilliant software a must-have for any company.

Cons:

Sage is too complicated to both install and set up we have to get an outside company set up and install apart from this additional cost everything else was perfect.

Great of custom Coding

Comments: I Like how to configure and how all is easy for a programmer to add some software to help end-user, if you not add custom coding it will respond our demand

Pros:

I like the possibility to link Custom coding to sage with AVB macro

Cons:

Slod product by unit or by full case, it seen not very user friend to understand doing this

Its ok.

Comments: its works for us day to day and after 3 years of customizing this software its at a place where we like it. However I'm not sure it is something we will stick with long term.

Pros:

It has great security features and can include a lot of customization.

Cons:

All these customizations are very expensive and some features feel like they should be out of the box but are not.

User Friendly

Comments: Been using different version of Sage. Very easy to use and easy to train new staff with. Our company continues to upgrade to newer version when needed.

Pros:

easy to use and display of icons are easy to access. easy to train new staff. The security features are easy to set up as well.

Cons:

reports need to be customized by third party.

Archaic not user friendly late keeping up with new technology

Pros:

The project management portion of the software appeared at first to be a good tool. the more we worked with the product, the more we disliked it. Very difficult to find information, not good reports to show complete picture of job profitability, have to assemble different reports to come up with good clear picture of job cost status. the accounting software portion is archaic, again extremely hard to work with, archaic system, very ineffective and incurred substantial loss of productivity.

Cons:

Must spend on training to understand how to navigate through the software and find the information we need. It is evident that the software provided neglected reinvesting in this product and making it user friendly and up to par with other software on the market today.

Sage 300 Review

Pros:

Easy of use with numerous business types.

Cons:

Changes are needed to save time in data input. The software should retain the vendor code when entering invoices in accounts payable. You have to reenter the vendor code each time a group of invoices are entered for the same vendor. You are only able to pay 14 invoices to a single vendor with one check.

Doesn't work on a Mac

Pros:

- Lots of different reporting - Easy to put orders in - Once you know how to use it, it is easy to use.

Cons:

- Does not work on a Mac. I have to remote in to a PC to use it on my laptop. - I wish the reporting worked where you can run everything in one report and select what you needed. I tend to have to run multiple reports and do vlookups.

User Since 2012

Pros:

I like the interface of the software that makes it easy for the person inputting information to navigate the screens.

Cons:

If I am both an approver and an data entry employee I can approve my own GL, AP, etc entries. This has proven to be an internal control issue when our auditors are documenting our systems and controls.

Array 3rd Parties Modules

Pros:

Has large array of 3rd parties modules that are industry or process specific. Sage 300 is modular and seamless integration of 3rd modules makes it fun to work with

Cons:

Needs to improve on graphics and increase support for more database engine. Database engines such as Postgre are great open source engine and can't just be ignored.

Sage Acc Pac Review

Comments: Overall a fine experience

Pros:

For our company the aging trial balance and customer transaction history report are most commonly used features

Cons:

Wish the customer transaction report had a slightly different presentation. Appears many times if we present this format to our customers they are confused

Haven't used long enough to identify any upgrades to this
