Transactions are easy to track and to post with the relevant screens that can be navigated through. It is also good for a company with multiple entities as these can be interchanged and tracked easily. The reporting functionality 'SEI' which is an excel add in is quite good and allows individuals to create reports which can be used for relevant purposes. This is a quick and easy way of getting information from the system. the debtors and creditors aging reporting is also quite good which allows us to see a good overview of the transactional aspects of the business. > > **Cons**: Difficult to make any changes if required. There is little information available for self help so if any changes need to be made or assistance then this usually requires an additional cost or discussions with specialists which can be timely and costly. For example, a change in the year end date was not easy for us as there has been forward postings for deferred revenue. Additionally control is a bit lacking with Sage X3, it is difficult to do things like close down month end or specify roles due to having to look in multiple places. A simple month end close you have to go to about 4/5 screens so it is easy to make mistakes here. It is also difficult to upgrade when different patches are released and usually you have to get specialist help with this which can be expensive. > > Overall it does the job required of a finance system. The issues with it is that is is hard to scale. It is difficult to get out of the box functionality to work without having to get specialist help which can come at a price. The system feels quite clunky with multiple steps to get to a result or output. Maybe better for smaller businesses. ----- ### "Complex but effective" — 4.0/5 > **Ethan** | *23 December 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Sage X3 is a useful tool for accountants in a manufacturing based business looking to keep track of various stock types. It has an approachable interface that can be utilised in various ways to generate stock reports and utililisation reports. > > **Cons**: The initial issues i had with X3 were in relation to the learning curve, it can be quite difficult to fully adapt to the system and understand how to use all the tools effectively. > > Overall i have had a positive interaction with X3, however the inital start can be difficult as it can be quite complex. It is an effective tool for product based businesses with complex stock systems. ----- ### "Solid system with lots of features which just works" — 4.0/5 > **Anthony** | *11 February 2025* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Easy to navigate, logical flowthrough of processes and easy to customise and pull data from. > > **Cons**: Not great for Warehouse Management and some default system logic needed tweaking > > Overall a good system with logical process structure, highly customisable and data driven ----- ### "Sage X3 - Best Stock system" — 4.0/5 > **Lyn** | *15 April 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Sage X3 is a brilliant stock based sage system.
