Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The way everything integrated well with everything else was most valuable. We had one solution for everything, from the first phone call down to follow-up visits for wholesale callers and for just regular purchases.""This solution supports multiple branches."

More Acumatica Pros →

"The most valuable features of Sugar Enterprise are the exports of graphics, statuses, complaints, and tasks.""The most valuable features of the SugarCRM platform include its flexibility in customizing fields, layouts, and dashboards.""The most valuable aspect of this solution is its low cost.""It works well with Jira.

Cons
"For support, we go through a distributor, and the support we receive from them is much better than what we would from Acumatica directly. When we went to Acumatica support directly, we were not happy with it.""We should be able to personalize it for the company. There should be more customization of the pages so that they seem more like a company rather than as an outside company. We should be able to change company images and things like that and do this kind of personalization.""The solution doesn't have features to break down the structure for multiple people in the project."

More Acumatica Cons →

"You cannot include all your entities under one instance at the moment.""In the next release, I would like to see personalization of information about customers or specific businesses or opportunities.""It lacks customization, and this is the main reason that we are switching to a different solution.""I would like to see more integration on a mobile platform in the next release.""Sugar Enterprise could improve by removing bugs and glitches. For example, a comment was made but in the comment section, it was never displayed. However, the problems we faced might not be the fault of the solution.""While it is already user-friendly, a slight enhancement in UI design, especially in terms of color combinations, could make the platform more visually appealing and comfortable to use."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "It is very expensive for a small business. If you're a small business, it is not a very good solution in that aspect, but if you are big and have more manufacturing, it is well worth it. It comes with the ability to integrate with one website. We had to modify ours. We customized it so that we could do hundreds of websites. In Texas, I believe that we were the only one ever to be integrated with hundreds of websites. So, the development of our API probably cost us a hundred grand, and then there would be maintenance. That's all outside of the standard licensing fee."
