### "Sage X3 for sales management"

February 1, 2023

4.0

Sage X3 is a great solution in our company to keep order in our sales management helping us from the accounting part to the inventory issue with a great accuracy that helps in our company to increase our productivity and maintain an order that has been forming for years, being key to business development. Paperwork-filled processes were left behind in our company since we have been using Sage X3.

Pros

Sage X3 has an excellent user interface, it feels like all the icons and elements are in the right place to do the best job possible, keeping our users happy and familiar with all the possible tools within the platform. Importing and exporting data can be done in bulk helping us keep our file central up to date and saving a great deal of time. This tool is not suggested for small companies since the amount of functions and where it is directed goes far beyond, a very powerful tool that has minimal flaws that gradually have been resolved, the tool provides a lot of support when it is implemented correctly which is not easy, and its customer service is not as good as expected of a very powerful tool.

Cons

One of the things that have caused us most intrigue is that its error messages are not in our native language, so if we do not speak another language it is impossible to understand what it is about, it would be a good point to improve. The initial configuration of Sage X3 is not as simple as expected, which forced us to hire third parties to make it work and this represented an extra expense that was not contemplated in the investment.

### "The Splendor and Misery of Sage X3"

August 19, 2025

4.0

I have been working with X3 for over 3 years, and my overall experience with ERPs is more than 12 years. This experience is controversial. On one side, it constantly amazes me with its wide range of customization. On the other side, there is a steep learning curve, complexity, and poor documentation.

Pros

Flexibility. Many things that require customizations in other ERPs can be done in Sage X3 via options, configurations, and formulas.

Cons

Steep learning curve. As one of my Sage X3 course instructors said, "Despite your experience with ERPs, in Sage X3 you can't play it by ear or guess; you must know. The workflow is often not logical."

### "Sage X3 ERP has been a useful asset for our company, is great for stock/dropship companies."

July 10, 2018

3.0

Pros

I like that X3 works really well for corporations that are made up of many different companies. X3 has the ability to handle multiple separate companies that each one of can be further separated into stock and financial sites that can all share customers, suppliers, G/L accounts, etc., providing smooth consolidation. X3 has a very easy to understand and easily navigable user interface.

Cons

I do not like the limited capabilities of the canned reports and queries provided with X3. I also do not like the slow response time from the support staff. The program does not work well with customization because it causes a lot of problems when it comes time for patching and upgrading.

### "A good accounting software. "

October 3, 2025

4.0

I like to use this accounting software. It help me to save a lot of time and allow me to do something else.

Pros

Your software is easy to use, the accounting management is user friendly. Excellent value for this price.

Cons

I can’t use the entire functionality of the software due to a malfunction of the bank link process with Desjardins.

### "Sage X3 works great for our big box retail greenhouse business"

March 26, 2025

5.0

We use Sage X3 for Production, Sales, Shipping and Accounting. All of our integrations work great. It is a solid solution for an ERP system!

Pros

We use an industry specific custom build on top of the base X3 system. It works great with our customizations and the SQL database back end is solid.

Cons

As it is all web-based, some of the functionality is a little clunky when compared to Sage MAS500 it's predecessor.

### "SAGE IS GREAT AT SALES FOCUSED NEEDS "

September 15, 2025

5.0

overall, sage x3 has been solid. it’s flexible, covers most business processes, and helps us stay efficient. the customization options are great for tailoring to our needs, and it’s easy to work with once you get the hang of it

Pros

I like sage x3 because it’s flexible, secure, and covers most business processes especially Sales side. it follows best practices and can be customized to fit specific needs for customers. it’s easy to use, and with help from it and the sage team, changes can be made to meet business goals.

Cons

what i liked least about sage x3 is it’s kinda hard to learn at first. some parts are confusing and not super user-friendly. customizing stuff takes time and you need help from it. also, support isn’t always quick.

November 5, 2025

5.0

I enjoy working with Sage, I work with integrations outside of Sage (ODBC or using a partners Sage WebService).

Pros

I enjoy the customizations, there are plenty of courses available online (both paid and free) to help learn Sage X3.

Cons

From the clients perspective, the customizations require a very technical, or even certified employee or a certified partner in order to customize Sage X3.

### "Sage X3 Review"

May 20, 2025

4.0

A very good software, not as user friendly as other software applications but above all a good product. All information is there and accessible. You may have to look a bit more deeply to find what you want at times.

Pros

So many ways to process data and a wide array of reports for data view the information that you are looking for.

Cons

Data Entry of payments a bit lengthy--too much manual effort at times. Would like to be able to do multiple lines at once or in a more flowing way.

### "Sage does do it jobs in a good manner"

July 27, 2022

4.0

I'd say that it does a pretty good job.

Pros

Since I grew up with technology all the functions and placements, for the most part, do make sense to me and it is easy to use.

Cons

I do wish that the lettering wasn't so small. I understand that I would have to scroll more or adjust the spacing of my sections, however, I think it would be very useful and would improve the usage between co-workers.

Overall experience is good from the software itself. Easy to use and self explanatory of functions. Field help is also good. Detailed amount of context is written.

Pros

Development of new process and ease of use.

Cons

Some basic development should be supportive from the SAGE support team. Some standard script file we can not see. Support is not available on a good amount.

### "A good ERP system"

May 14, 2020

5.0

I am happy with the product. I administer this product as well as another ERP and this one is substantially better in nearly every way.

Pros

X3 is highly configurable. Its intercompany functionality is substantial. Administrators have a ton of control over the user experience-- what they see, default fields, hiding fields, permissions, etc is all highly configurable without needing to be an IT genius to figure it out.

Cons

The ability to receive help. The help function is somewhat helpful sometimes but is not updated as often as it should be. The user community is lacking. I would love to be able to post on a message board about my problem, but when I have done that I have rarely gotten the answers I need. Solutions to X. problems are not "googleable"

3 years as an admin. responsible for daily use, trouble shooting problems ( why didn't this invoice show up in the matching screen?) , creating SQL queries, writing & modifying reports.

Pros

Proprietary language for modifications. Where do I learn all the commands and see a library of examples? Interface look and feel is 20 years old. only crystal for generating reports.

May 14, 2017

5.0

Pros

Sage X3 helps companies in the distribution industry meet customer demands and keep costs and waste down by managing the movement of goods across locations, warehouses, or companies. By combining sales, purchasing, and inventory, the software creates a powerful replenishment plan that results in lower inventory levels, no unnecessary distribution, and healthier operating margins.

Cons

Sage ERP X3’s human resource module is relatively weak It is not recommendable to smaller markets and industries To know the pricing, a quote has to be requested from the vendor There are no social media tools integrated into Sage ERP X3 There is no live chat support offered in the global website of the product

November 12, 2020

4.0

We are a highly transactional environment which X3 handles quite easily. We've been able to move our planning systems to a level we've not experienced before without a highly modified environment.

Pros

The MRP system, query tools, and the SEI tool.

Cons

Many of the detailed aspects of the system aren't described in enough detail in online help and general documentation.

Reason for choosing Sage X3

MRP system, flexibility in use, and the SEI tool.

May 15, 2018

Sage is a great software for data entry. I believe that it has everything possibly needed on it and it is simple enough that just about anyone can learn to use it!

Pros

I like that this product has a help button on every tab, I also like how easy this software is to use and how quickly I was able to learn how to work with it and explore everything that it has to offer.

Cons

I do not like how you can easily add or change codes by clicking one wrong button. I do not like how many modules are on it, I feel like they categorize way to much.
