Sage Fixed Assets Software

Our company uses Sage Fixed Assets to maintain our company Asset files by setting up a separate company for each location. Sage keeps up with the ever changing depreciation laws so you don't have to.

Pros

Multiple companies can be set up, in addition a consolidated company can be set up for reporting purposes. Lots of easy applications.

Cons

When printing reports sometimes the system locks up on me and I have to log out and restart it.

Very good system but lacking SAAS presence.Cant wait to see what the future is for SAGE fas

Pros

Comprehensive Depreciation and Tax book makes it the best FAS system. Very powerful tool to manage fixed assets

Cons

No SAAS platform makes it cumbersome as can only be installed on premise

We use Sage Fixed Assets to manage all of our fixed assets and their depreciation.

Pros

Sage Fixed Assets allows me to easily manage multiple company assets and makes keeping track of things like depreciation simple. I love that I am able to quickly find information by searching in any field.

Cons

I don't like that Sage Fixed Assets will allow people to enter duplicate assets and duplicate records. It would be helpful if there was something that flagged these mistakes immediately so that we didn't have to find them later.

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.

Ability to run monthly depreciation reports.

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.

Pros

we use this to go along with your Sage 100 ERP and it's easy to use. If you have Sage then this is a great option

Cons

It is very expensive and it's licenced by workstation. You have to buy in bundles of 2 so that drives the cost up.

Pros

Easy to use and good support. Easy to upgrade and built in reports are very useful. Does not cost a lot of money compared to other offerings.

Cons

Does not tie in to any other software that we use so everything has to be manually inputted and deleted.

Pros

We use a different company file for each location to keep track of that locations assets. We are able to create a company file to combine locations in one main file when necessary. Very easy to use program and makes calculating depreciation simple.

Cons

Some of the pre-set depreciation methods are hard to figure out which one to use. The report generating is slow.

Pros

- User-friendly
- High capacity of asset info to store
- Multiple companies
-Multiple reports, and customizable

Cons

- Software interface looks outdated/old
- There isn't much else I dislike. Still a good software and we use it a lot.

Being able to customize reports as well as export to formats has been a life-saver. We have never had any problems with data loss or calculations being inaccurate. Its a pretty powerful way to organize your fixed assets. The setup and menu options are intuitive. We did our setup completely on our own, without training from an implementation team. I love this!

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,

Leading software for maintaining fixed assets. They have different versions, local and network versions. There have been bugs in the network version that finally have been fixed. It's kind of expensive for the basic function it does but it works.

This software is used to maintain our fixed assets. It a bit expensive but does a good job. The interface could be a little better

The software is ok, it does what it is supposed to. It's quite expensive for what you get. The support is ok but could be better.

We use this product for asset management, depreciation, and disposals. It's easy to use and gets the job done.

The FAS system is a very strong stand-alone fixed asset system. Capabailities include Book and tax depreciation as well as area to enter important details at the time of purchase, time of transfer etc.
Several trucking companies have implemented FAS in addition to Oracle, Dynamics, or any other accounting software.

We run it off a shared server and it runs pretty slow. Take away the slowness and the report-writing tool and it does its job as required.
