Why You Should Migrate from Sage 100 Contractor to Acumatica ERP

Why You Should Migrate from Sage 100 Contractor to Acumatica ERP

The technology requirements of construction companies and contractors are changing quickly along with the sector. The increased need for mobility, scalability, real-time data access, and integrated operations has revealed the limitations of Sage 100 Contractor, a long-time reliable solution for small to mid-sized construction enterprises. This is where Acumatica ERP, a cutting-edge, cloud-based substitute designed for construction firms seeking expansion and productivity, comes in.

Confianz Global Inc. is an expert in smooth ERP migrations, having assisted several construction companies in making the switch from Sage 100 Contractor to Acumatica Construction Edition with the least amount of inconvenience and the most possible gain. Making this move could revolutionize your company for the following main reasons:

Cloud-Native Platform with Anytime, Anywhere Access

Sage 100 Contractor:  Mainly a desktop-based solution, accessing it from outside the office necessitates remote desktop access or additional hosting services.

Acumatica:  A true cloud-native platform. Whether you’re in the office, on the job site, or on the road, Acumatica gives you full access to your ERP system from any device with a web browser.

  • Benefit: Field teams, project managers, and decision-makers may work together effectively without being confined to one place when they have real-time access to vital business data.

Integrated Financial and Project Management

Sage 100 Contractor: While it offers basic project management and job costing, it lacks fully integrated modules across departments.

Acumatica: Enables the integration of project accounting, payroll, inventory, CRM, and compliance into a single system.

  • Benefit : Enhances cross-departmental cooperation, gets rid of data silos, and boosts accuracy by cutting down on redundant data entry.

Open Architecture & Seamless Integrations

Sage 100 Contractor: Integrating with modern tools often requires expensive third-party add-ons and customizations.

Acumatica: Built on an open architecture that supports seamless API integration with a wide range of construction technologies, such as Procore, Autodesk, DocuSign, and others.

  • Benefit: Connect your ERP system to other essential systems with ease to streamline your tech stack and increase operational efficiency.

User-Based Pricing vs. Resource-Based Pricing

Sage 100 Contractor: Pricing is often based on the number of users, which can get expensive as your team grows.

Acumatica : Allows for resource-based pricing, thus adding an infinite number of users won’t cost you anything more.

  • Benefit : Without having to worry about paying for each new user’s license, promote teamwork.

Real-Time Dashboards and Business Intelligence

Sage 100 Contractor: Lacks interactive, real-time dashboards and rich analytics but provides basic reports.

Acumatica : Provides powerful real-time dashboards, KPI tracking, and analytics tools that offer deep insights into financials, job performance, and customer trends.

  • Benefit: Make faster, data-driven decisions and respond proactively to potential project risks.

Modern User Experience

Sage 100 Contractor: Has an outdated interface that can be less intuitive for modern users.

Acumatica: Features a modern, user-friendly interface designed for easy navigation and productivity

  • Benefit: Reduces training time, increases user adoption, and enhances overall user satisfaction.

Compliance and Security

Sage 100 Contractor: Security features are limited compared to modern ERP systems.

Acumatica: Offers robust role-based security, data encryption, user access controls, and supports industry compliance standards.

  • Benefit: Protects sensitive business data and ensures compliance with industry regulations and data privacy standards.
