Sage 200 Standard – ERP Out-the-Box

What is Sage 200 Standard?

Sage 200 Standard is one of two versions of Sage 200, a powerful Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. It’s a cloud-based, out-the-box ERP solution that will satisfy the financial and commercial needs of most businesses.

The software is designed for small to medium sized businesses, allowing them to increase their financial, commercial and stock management capabilities, in order to facilitate growth. Sage 200 Standard is often the natural progression for businesses using Sage 50 who are experiencing the growing pains associated with outgrowing software.

Sage 50 is designed for up to 50 users and 1.5 million transactions, whereas Sage 200 Standard is designed for up to 200 users and 9 million transactions, making it a smart choice for Sage 50 customers who need more processing power.

You can learn more about moving from Sage 50 to Sage 200 by reading our article Migrating from Sage 50 to Sage 200 – A Beginners Guide.

Sage 200 Standard’s counterpart, Sage 200 Professional is an on-premise or cloud-hosted ERP system, which has a range of additional modules available, catering for industry specific challenges. Unlike Sage 200 Standard, it is highly customisable through the addition of extra modules.

Although that could sound appealing when considering what version of Sage 200 to choose, the fact is that Sage 200 Standard might service all of your business requirements, without the need of building a tailored Sage 200 Professional solution.

If you’d like to take a more in-depth look at the differences between the versions of Sage 200, you can read our article Sage 200 – Standard Vs Professional Compared.

Will Sage 200 Standard work for my business?
