Easy to customize. Web services integrated. Security is granular enough to cover most situations. > > **Cons**: 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. > > Despite the base technology being over a decade old, Sage have managed to stay current with emerging technology while maintaining and improving many features. ----- ### "Sage X3 the reliable ERP" — 5.0/5 > **Yassine** | *04 October 2024* | Industrial Automation | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: the integrity of the different modules is the flexibility of use as well as the availability of information in real time > > **Cons**: the scheduling module is a bit complicated and does not meet our needs > > I have over 14 years of experience with Sage X3, it has helped me to progress and master the different business processes of the different modules. ----- ### "Awful company" — 1.0/5 > **Morgan** | *12 October 2023* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 0.0/10 > > **Pros**: I was looking for something more customizable than Quickbooks, which it is. > > **Cons**: Misleading advertising, said works with Mac doesn't really(yeah if I install it in parallel and buy a new subscription for all my other software in Microsoft parallel). Then refund process was excruciating, didnt refund money and had to follow up several times. Then you have to sign up with Pay for ACH which is worse. The rates are extremely expensive, they make you sign all this stuff before you get the actual rates, I never used service or finished setting up service and closed account with sage. Then a year later I get charges, they won't refund me even though I never used them or finished setting up. Extremely unhelpful. > > Awful, predatory ----- ### "Great ERP Solution" — 5.0/5 > **Ian** | *15 March 2024* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Intuitive menu structure and easy to use once the basics have been learnt. Very flexible and can be customized to suit your business > > **Cons**: Relatively complex initial set up and not the quickest of systems as always a processing delay ----- ### "ERP system with integrated accounting software for medium size business" — 5.0/5 > **Somari** | *16 December 2020* | Mechanical or Industrial Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: 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. > > **Cons**: The financial reporting software in X3 is not very good at all, but with SEI as an add-in, that problem is solved. > > 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. ----- Page: 1 / 6\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/1320/sage-x3?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.za.com/software/1320/sage-x3) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | ----- ## Structured Data
