TOP 10 REASONS TO UPGRADE TO 2013 SAGE 100 ERP
In December, Sage released its New Sage 100 ERP for 2013. Right away the new features are evident in the ability to manage multi-company CRM and in processing orders in a more efficient manner utilizing quick entry screens. The power of Paperless Office is also now available on public mail servers such as Google mail, Yahoo, AT&T, and Hotmail with secure SMTP authentication.
While these changes in Sage’s newest ERP 100 installment are worth their weight in gold, there is no shortage of reasons to upgrade and we’ve compiled a few of them here, courtesy of Sage North America.
