Software to manage a construction company

Geraldineg · 08-09-2008, 09:56 AM

Hi

I work for a group of construction companies that need new software to manage Orders, Purchases, Costings and Management Reports. They don't seem to be happy to go with Sage is their any other off the shelf software that covers all these areas
Many thanks for any info.

Isn't SAGE meant to be the best one? I think the only other option would be custom built solution.

Thanks for that, It is a toss up between custom built and Sage, the only thing about Sage is there is plenty of assistance out there if required where as custom built may not be as flexible. Accountant maintains Sage will not give him reports he requires.

I'm think you can get someone to modify Sage to get the reports you want, I think it allows you to create plugins/addons/extensions.

I recently did a Sage/website integration, where the sage software had extra features added by another company.
