Why True Mobile Cloud Technology is Moving Customers from Sage 100 to Acumatica  

You may notice some warning signs when you're outgrowing your existing system. It could be anything that causes inefficiencies in the workplace to a lack of functionality or automation that may impact your bottom line. In this blog, we cover true mobile technology. 

If your Sage 100 software is outdated and limiting the capabilities of your business, it's time to consider a modern solution like Acumatica.  Learn why more and more customers are moving from Sage 100 to Acumatica in this 5-part blog series.

Reason #2: True Mobile Cloud Technology 

Having access to your data with a mobile-friendly ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) system is essential for employees in today's business environment.  Mobile devices such as mobile phones and tablets allow remote access for executives, salespeople on the road, employees on the shop floor and in the warehouse, and field service personnel. It captures real-time data and allows you to enter data wherever you can access the internet.

Since Acumatica was built in the cloud, all you need is an internet connection, and it will work on any device. The screens resize to fit your device. Although Sage renamed Sage 100 to Sage 100cloud, it is not a true SaaS product, which affects speed and functionality.  Many Sage 100 customers are manufacturers, field service, MROs, and distributors. Acumatica is ideal for these types of businesses.  Acumatica Manufacturing and Distribution editions, Field Service Management edition, and ProMRO for maintenance, repair, and overhaul are available.

Acumatica provides you with remote access using the iOS and Android native app or by using any web browser on any device. Acumatica offers dedicated apps for mobile CRM, mobile sales orders, project time cards, and much more.  You get easy access to your business’s information anytime, anywhere with Acumatica for iOS and Android. Wherever you go, Acumatica goes with you.

”True cloud” means all functionality is accessible through the internet using a standard browser without the need for any software installation on the user’s device, and no additional software licensing is required.
