Program adapts to our requirements and handles our operations effectively

The interface we use currently needs enhancement, as I am still using the outdated green screens. I would benefit for us to adpot the latest INFOR user interface, which is a more integrated interface. Additionally, improvements in warehouse handling with handheld terminal, quality management in warehouses, and managing a dual sourcing strategy would be beneficial. I have had to build my own applications for some features that are lacking, and aligning all components for uncertainty management in the market is necessary.

Offers extensive features for efficient operations in small to midsize businesses

The solution is very good. However, for very small companies, maybe a cloud service is better. Other software like QuickBooks may work well if you do not have many employees and require simple invoicing and inventory. This software, though, is a bit more advanced compared to QuickBooks, offering flexibility, multi-user capability, and options for application development. It connects directly to the database for reporting or external systems, which is beneficial for companies needing more advanced features. However, if I need a very complex system, Sage might not be suitable. Overall, I would rate this product an eight out of ten.
