Sage say it is designed for businesses with a turnover between £1m and £20m (we think it is about the value your customers place upon good information and service). Each department accesses the information they need from a shared source, eliminating duplicate records and creating an environment for clear processes – resulting in a better use of time and minimising the risk of errors arising between departments.

The core system rests on three components:

• Sage 200 Financials - to manage your accounting processes
• Sage 200 CRM - for your sales, marketing, service and support teams
• Sage 200 Integration Manager – synchronises the system’s components

You then choose which additional features you will use:

• Sage 200 Commercials - to improve your sales and purchase order processing, pricing, stock management, and distribution
• Sage 200 Project Accounting - for better project costing, billing and analysis. An additional option is Sage Web Time & Expenses which enables remote entry of time and expenses
• Sage 200 Bill of Materials - for a robust process when assembling finished goods

Sage has also developed these industry specific add-ons:

• Sage 200 Construction - manages the processes specifically required by the Construction industry, from estimates through to final billing
• Sage 200 Wholesale and Retail - a merchandise management system for wholesalers, retailers and trade counter businesses
• Sage 200 Manufacturing - to manage the manufacturing processes more smoothly

For smaller operations, Sage 50 Suite offers an alternative solution, offering an equivalent mix of features for fewer users.

Once the solution has been agreed, we will make sure it is set up to properly support your business operation by tailoring its design, coding, managing and cleansing all data that is loaded, and creating reports that deliver the information you need.
