“They had reached the limits that Sage 50 offered, and needed a system which could grow with their business.”
The business’ significant growth meant that the company had outgrown their business management solution, Sage 50 Accounts. Sage 50 had become slow due to the number of transactions being processed, causing regular problems and inefficiencies within the business.
The number of users on the system was also causing a problem with speed and it was becoming increasingly difficult to analyse data quickly. As the company grew, Sage 50 began to have major performance issues including data corruption.
Sage 50 has limited scope for customisation and could not be integrated with their purchase order system. This meant that purchase orders had to be manually re-entered into Sage 50 separately, doubling data entry time and increasing the opportunity for error.
Their growth meant that they had reached the limits of Sage 50 and needed a system which could grow with their business.
The Problem
Outgrown Systems
“Given Eureka Solutions’ extensive Sage 200 product knowledge and technical expertise,
We understood we were capable of providing them with a solution to meet their unique requirements..”
The Solution
Sage 200 with enhanced functionalities
Following thorough consultation with Eureka Solutions, this company opted to implement Sage 200, an integrated business management solution for medium-sized businesses. Sage 50 users often find that Sage 200 is the logical step up when they’ve outgrown their system as it’s more comfortable to moving to a completely different system and provides much more functionality.
Given Eureka Solutions’ extensive product knowledge and technical expertise, this company understood that we could provide them with a solution to meet their unique requirements. Along with the upgrade to Sage 200, they also took advantage of our bespoke development capabilities and several of our Addons products including Data Exchange and Fixed Assets to ensure they got the most out of the Sage 200 system.
Following the upgrade to Sage 200, our bespoke development and Addons products, this company now benefit from a modern, integrated business management solution which can grow with them.
Our migration process from Sage 50 to Sage 200 ensure that they didn’t lose any of their data. The Sage 200 system is also designed to manage high volumes of multi-currency transactions, supporting their foreign expansion.
Their purchase order system is now fully integrated with their accountancy system, thanks to our Data Exchange Addon, which has eliminated data entry errors caused by manual replication, increasing efficiency within the organisation.
Sage 200 offers quick and easy access to report and analyse business performance with custom reporting available, allowing this company to produce detailed financial reports and forecasting.
