Still not as good as some other software
Pros
Sage is very easy for the user it's easy to update,easy to generate reports and it's easy to navigate
Cons
I've had issues printing from the front end is an issue. I don't like the fact you have to backup both the company system as well the database.

Overall, Sage fixed assets is helpful for accounting of assets
Pros
I like the fact that you can find any asset purchased in any year very easily on a clear list. It's easy to switch from 1 company to the next.
Cons
Sometimes, the programs functionality is slow. It can take a couple of minutes to export a PDF file.

Obseled software
Cons
Very hard to use. I couldn't customize reports. Difficult to communicate to other software. It's separate from our main accounting software and I had to do tons of manual adjustment to record fixed asset to the main accounting software. It has no query function. When one asset is off, it's very hard for me to find and fix it.

Love Sage Software
Pros
We have found Sage to be the most user friendly fixed assets software. It is easily searchable by any field and is very easy to navigate.
Cons
We didn't like that the software will let you duplicate records and doesn't prevent duplicate assets being entered. Wish there was a stop or at least a popup message that would help hedge that off.

Tracks some data, lacks others
Pros
Sage fixed assets has the capability to add and track several data points, which can be customized by the company. Photos and notes for each asset can be added to the asset file and retrieved at any time.
Cons
Certain data cannot be added to the main view grid, but can be added to reports, and vice versa. It's difficult to compare two different reports that pull two different sets of data because some data points are only added to one report versus another.

Horrible programing
It works fine if you want to wait 10 minutes for a report to upload. Of course, it's faster than having to do it on excel myself but I feel like they take advantage of that fact and make the software just shy of garbage so you will pay to use it.
Pros
It keeps me from doing it by hand.
Cons
It's tempermentall and shuts down frequently.
The calculations are frequently a little off.
Too expensive for the time I have to put into it.
Advice to Others
Yeah it works. And from what I hear other products are just as bad.

A little clunky but a fantastic Fixed Asset Management software.
Likes Best
Being able to customize reports as well as export to formats such as excel has been a life saver. We have never had any problems with data loss or calculations being inaccurate. Once you get passed some of the clunky ways it wants you to do things it becomes a pretty powerful way to organize your fixed assets.
Likes Least
The UI and navigating within the UI could use a lot of work. They seem to steadily improve it as they release new versions but it is still pretty clunky and takes a little bit of getting used to.
Recommendations
As with any other software, take a look at around three other programs and compare features between them. If you can get a hold of a free limited trial that is even better.

Likes Best
Ease of use, even before training. There are many help tools that actually provide good assistance. The software provides many custom fields that the user can define how they want them to be presented.
Likes Least
It would be great if there was a "search" feature that would let you search for a specific word or wording within the asset listing, without exporting then searching.
Recommendations
For the price of the software, it is definitely worth a look!

I feel that it does what it needs to do. I am not a software engineer, so I don't really know what it is that needs to be fixed. But something is causing it to run slowly on my system.

Does everything we want it to do

It appears to be the only DEP & Asset software out there that does everything you want for a reasonable price. I've been at 3 companies in 17 years and each one ended up purchasing it and replying on it.
Likes Least
The price has gone up in the last 5 years, but it still very competitive.
Recommendations
Compare all the features to at least 5 other software out there. Then find out how much each is worth at the level you need.

There's no report customization without purchasing an additional package. Some customization filters should be provided when you don't need anything extensive, like a simple column addition.

Pros
Sage Fixed Assets has been able to fulfill all needs I've had while tracking multiple companies fixed assets. The interface and reports are well laid out. Customer Service team has been very helpful.
Cons
It does become very slow as a large amount of assets are added to a database. Some changes to individual assets trigger other changes without alerting the user - such as changing depreciation type can change estimated life.

Pros
Good for keeping all of your fixed assets in one place. Good for running basic reports at month end, but not much else.
Cons
I do not like how you cannot customize the reports very easily. The software is also not very intuitive and difficult for a 'newbie' to learn. Seems like this could have been a much better product if it was more user friendly.

Sage offers easy-to-use/read reports that are easily modified to a users preferences or needs. The software also provides a great solution for housing supporting documentation for each asset. This makes research easy and convenient.
Pros
Sage's strongest features are report creation, documentation ability and intuitiveness. Reports are sleek, complete and can be modified easily to meet any demands you may have, there are many options available to support documentation efforts (ie. attaching images or pdfs, additional fields for entering specific information) and the product's ease of use requires little time for users to get "up to speed."
Cons
Reports take a considerable amount of time to load based on the simplicity of many of the reports we use. Based on the other abilities of the software, I would expect reports to be generated a little quicker.

The program is great and it does what we need - the only thing bad about it is when there are upgrades there is always a glitch which is fixed when the next upgrade is released. Also the customer service can be improved - they place you on hold it seems like forever.
Pros
it does do the statements and reports that we need and it does let you customize your reports
Cons
the customer service - it takes forever to reach someone. When there are updates there is always something wrong with some aspect and you have to wait until the next update is released,
