As the full retirement of Sage 1000 draws closer on December 31st 2024, we hear from many Sage 1000 customers who have either moved to new ERP software already or are ready to begin their migration journey. Most say that Sage 1000 performed exactly the way they needed it to and has been a workhorse for many, many years. Whilst the core product functionality can still do the job, it is often the platform and technical infrastructure on which it sits that is failing.
This article will look at the steps to determine if Sage X3 is the right option for your business. We outline the benefits of the world-class Enterprise Resource Planning software, Sage X3 and the ways in which CPiO can help with your transition.
