Switchover to Acumatica was pretty smooth. My users enjoy it much more than the prior product they were using.
Acumatica has a modern, intuitive interface. I have used everything from SAP to Sage to Netsuite and by far this is the best one I have used.
Nitpicky things. Bank matching can be a little off, and is hard to tweak. Reporting is split into multiple segregated programs based on where you want to create a report.

We are a food manufacturing and distribution operation. Our implementation was, at one time, highly customized. M&A activities and switching support organizations resulted in updates overlaying custom code and loss of custom functionality. The excuse of "That is not our code!" when attempting a recovery is not a viable answer for us.
This is a very functional and complex ERP application. A robust and expensive to support.
The support model is lacking in overall expertise. We have used changed support organizations twice due to lack of knowledge on attempting to implement a 3rd party application. Sharing and collaboration of resources between the organizations is cumbersome and the pricing for this expertise, due to complexity of the application, is very expensive.

Bastante contento , a nivel de personalización y administración es bastante potente
Es intuitivo , y muy personalizable teniendo los conocimientos
La forma de realizar y probar modificaciones en los informes. Hay que modificar , guardar , ir al ERP , imprimir.... se pierde bastante tiempo. No se puede ver directamente el resultado desde el crystal reports ya que hay que alimentar el informe con parámetros que le pasa el ERP.

Our old ERP system was no longer supported and we needed the ability to integrate with outside applications.
Functions link to related content with a click. Lots of set up options to meet various requirements. Very few multi-user record locks.
The error messages are often too vague. Implementation was quite lengthy and could have been handled better. The hard allocations are often frustrating.

Sage X3 helps companies in the distribution industry meet customer demands and keep costs and waste down by managing the movement of goods across locations, warehouses, or companies. By combining sales, purchasing, and inventory, the software creates a powerful replenishment plan that results in lower inventory levels, no unnecessary distribution, and healthier operating margins.
Sage ERP X3’s human resource module is relatively weak It is not recommendable to smaller markets and industries To know the pricing, a quote has to be requested from the vendor There are no social media tools integrated into Sage ERP X3 There is no live chat support offered in the global website of the product

Despite the base technology being over a decade old, Sage have managed to stay current with emerging technology while maintaining and improving many features.
Reliable and predictable management of standard ERP functions. Easy to customize. Web services integrated. Security is granular enough to cover most situations.
After login it takes several seconds to see the landing page. It's difficult to determine cause of some issues and error messages can be cryptic, requiring us to contact support in many cases, even for seemingly simple problems. Use on a mobile device is limiting as most screen layouts are designed for a PC.

I am happy with the product. I administer this product as well as another ERP and this one is substantially better in nearly every way.
X3 is highly configurable. Its intercompany functionality is substantial. Administrators have a ton of control over the user experience-- what they see, default fields, hiding fields, permissions, etc is all highly configurable without needing to be an IT genius to figure it out.
The ability to receive help. The help function is somewhat helpful sometimes but is not updated as often as it should be. The user community is lacking. I would love to be able to post on a message board about my problem, but when I have done that I have rarely gotten the answers I need. Solutions to X. problems are not "googleable"
Thank you for your review and I am pleased that you Sage X3 helps you run your business effectively.

We have been using X3 for 6 years now, and we have not had any major problems. X3 is easy to learn and understand. Access to certain functions are easily restricted to give only access relating to job functions of the users. Upgrading to newer versions are very easy, and the constant development ensures the software keeps getting better all the time.
Production lot tracking for quality control purposes works very well. There are no differences between the ERP/production and the accounting balances like sometimes happens with add on accounting software.
The financial reporting software in X3 is not very good at all, but with SEI as an add-in, that problem is solved.

Overall, Sage X3 is a comprehensive and flexible ERP solution that can help businesses improve their efficiency, streamline their processes, and adapt to changing needs over time but it may not be the best fit for all businesses depending on their needs, budget, and technical expertise.
It offers a wide range of functionality, including financial management, inventory management, sales management, purchasing, production management, and more. This makes it a one-stop-shop for businesses looking for an all-in-one ERP solution. Sage X3 is highly customizable, allowing businesses to tailor the software to their specific needs and requirements. This can help businesses to improve efficiency and streamline their processes.
Sage X3 is a high-end ERP software, which means that it may be more expensive than other ERP solutions on the market. This may be a barrier to entry for some businesses, particularly smaller ones with limited budgets. It is a complex software with many features and capabilities, which can make it difficult for users to learn and navigate. This may require a longer learning curve and more extensive training for users.

I use Sage ERP software for inputting AP/AR invoices in an accounting office. This was the software that was being used when I started working at my company. So far, I have found it to be very easy to learn and also very helpful with what I use it for. I think that the customer service is excellent because they really take the time to explain things that you are having difficulty with. Overall I would recommend this Sage ERP software to other companies.

Sage X3 has been the engine facilitating multi-site manufacturing capability and scalability.
Sage X3 is platform agnostic, highly flexible and configurable ERP application that meets the demands of an industry governed by FDA, DEA, cGMPs. The financials at its core are solid, allowing for the inventory and manufacturing transactions to be performed with trackability traceability throughout the life cycle of the product manufacturing.
Sage X3 has as it's core language a proprietary 4GL language that has been challenging to find skilled resources with experience coding in.

Overall, I've had a positive experience. As with any ERP, there are some things that are frustrating, but of the handful of ERPs I've worked with, it is the most flexible. I think it will be even better when we get to V12 (currently on V9).
There are a wide range of settings to help make Sage function the way we need it to. The knowledgebase is typically very helpful. If calling in for support, most of the time there is no wait and everyone seems quite knowledgeable.
When you do need a customization, it is lengthy and typically expensive. Apparently this is no longer offered by Sage, so a 3rd party must be used. So far, it is even more lengthy and more expensive....

What I liked the most is the versatility it has to adapt to the needs of any type of business, a great alternative for ERP. The variety of configurations that can be modified as well as the functionalities that can greatly save response times. The presentation and easy to create reports with very simple and guided quearys also The user interface is foolproof which is a great solution for the support and information department.
As an administrator I always have problems when it comes to support and debugging problems presented in the application in which many of them are not documented properly. The Reports are very colorful and well structured but at the moment of the output they take a long time to appear. I had some problems in the version update and the service pack caused some headaches

Thyssenkrupp VDM USA was using MAS 200 SQL for 10 years. As this product was phased out, management and users wanted to stay within the familiar Sage Product. Sage 500 ERP, being the true SQL solution, allowed our in-house programmers to create views and reports that were more specific than 200. Although we have only been live with 500 for 8 months in the Accounting and Distribution pieces, we are anxiously awaiting to finish the manufacturing implementation.

We are a mid-sized organization of European origin. We had been using software developed in Europe that did not meet U.S. Financial reporting needs, so we decided to purchase Sage ERP 5.6 in late 2010 and went live as of 3.1.11. We did most of the implementation work ourselves and were on an extremely tight schedule. The users were trained prior to implementation and had forgotten much of what they had learned by the time they needed to use the system. We had a second and third round of training each being 6 months apart. We have had a year on the new system and it is meeting all expectations.

Our organization was ready to adopt new technology with the newly stable market. We started looking for new software that would help us adapt to the changing business environment. We started with Sage ERP version 5.4 and now have upgraded to version 6.0.
