I like that it is user friendly, drag and drop feature makes it easy to run ad hoc reports. Love the line item detail and notes feature in the templates.

Great experience for me. We have a dedicated business systems resource on our team who helps a lot.

The ability to integrate reports directly with system data pulls is a very nice feature that can help reduce the complexity of workbooks.

I like the functionality of the program and ease of use.

It makes month end easier. Great customer service team always there when help is needed.

Collaboration can also be difficult, as the individual models are fragile and must be updated online.

It can be difficult to set up a report template. Once set it is good and there are no worries.

Upload of transactional data allows for greater degree of self-service research of budget variances on the part of budget owners.

The interface is pretty dated. I also mainly use chrome as my browser and there seems to be a lag time when scrolling in a template which is a bit of a pain.

I like being able to quickly and easily navigate to what I need. I like the user interface and options given upon login.

Host Analytics has greatly improved our team's capability to quickly consolidate & close each month.

Getting benefits in terms of financial analysis and setting up consistent reporting standards.

I dont like that to complete certificaiton, all users have to attend real life class.

I originally got into Host for budgeting and it has been great for that, but I have found it great for many other things. I also love the way it can grow with me.

It can be difficult to set up a report template. Not all the modules have the same reporting tools.

Good planning tool that integrates well with excel.

Customer service is second to none. In my 30+ years in planning and analysis, I have never found a team so dedicated to ensuring their customer's success.

I was never able to go live. Never got any value out of it and they made me pay for 2 years.

It's extremely user friendly, easy to use, and allows our team to quickly consolidate, close and provide detailed financial reports each month.

The inability to do calculations in the report without creating a new template. Also as we are on Macs the inability to use spotlight in Mac Excel.

The planning tool helped us standardize our budgeting process and we're very impressed with the workforce planning module that helped us easily managing our headcount and compensation estimate.

We love the ease and flexibility of the tool. The monthly releases mean that the product is constantly making improvements.

A data pull is not immediate and can cause some frustration if data is not pulled 100% accurately the first time.

Our planning process runs more smoothly and efficiently again with less errors. We are able to consolidate our plans quicker.

OVerall is a great tool for the ease of standardizing and managing  our reports.

We've been able to greatly improve how our manufacturing processes across various locations are reflected in our budgets and accounting practices.

Unable to integrate with other enterprise software solutions. Inability  to integrate with out of box web solutions.

The software is perfect for billing customers, sending statements, gathering finacial data for financial reporting.

Some of it's UI can be clunky and difficult to use.

It is very user friendly and layout is very clean and easy to navigate. I like crating working with queries that linked to Sage and this gives you endless options to retrieve needed information.

You'll notice lag in the system regardless of the hardware resources assigned to it.

The ability to customize your invoices  to include Logos and what is required to be shown on your invoices is essential.

Easy to use; Easy to run and customize reports; Good for managing entire small business; Integrates with ADP Payroll and allows for easy GL data dumping.

Sometimes have to enter negative values in data entry form into order to delete the unwanted entry.

Hate all the add ons just build it in the software.

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.

Sage 100  works seamlessly with our various Windows applications. The seamless ERP integration, history and reporting features have provided valuable support for our company over the years.

Awful Manufacturing capabilities. No access to actual support.

Sage is easy to install and can be used for all types of industries from small to medium sized. Easy to train and configure to your companies needs.

Does not integrate well with eCommerce as entries have to be made manually. Difficult to handle duplicate data.

Sage has a wide range of tracking and amazing functions that can be done. If you need a robust program and have the budget for it, this is the one to go with.

Sage is a good product with an excellent support staff.

With an increase in work from home scenarios, this has proven to be a helpful addition to our software solutions in conducting business.

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.

The ease of using this product is great, there are a lot of reports and the imformation that it retains is very useful.

The ability to setup your fonts and how you want reports to print and look makes it very personable.

Workflow can be frustrating or cryptic in rare cases.

Always having to tell system the date. Lack of response from customer service.

The cost per user can get insane and the system is very clunky with reporting and databases being difficult to configure.

Missing many key functions, has too many restricted areas that need to be more user-friendly, that were not designed by real life users.

Overall experience has been great with Sage. I am ablet o use it daily, monitor all accounting and close off my year well.
