The massive uptick in the use of Sage X3 has also caused an uptick of numerous myths regarding the nature of Enterprise Management, and, in particular, the levels of value and ease it offers companies of different sizes. From our own conversations and experiences, we see two myths bubble to the surface most often.
Allow us to refute the two biggest myths about migrating to Sage X3.
When it comes to the migration of financial management processes and systems, Sage X3 provides rapid ROI and substantial business process improvements. A recent study by Forrester Research found that customers can typically break even from their Sage X3 in just five months. Additionally, they enjoy more than $1 million in operational savings across a wide range of mission-critical business processes, including customer service, inventory management, manufacturing management, purchasing, sales management, and reporting.
The capabilities inherent in Sage X3 make your path to high ROI easier than ever by embracing the way your organization does business. Having a financial management system that molds to the way you work is far superior to adjusting your business operations to suit the financial management system. To that end, Enterprise Management allows you to configure workflows to mimic the specific ways in which your organization operates. The result is a cost-effective solution for your entire set of accounting needs that enables you to manage processes in real time and integrate information across the enterprise.
For example, Enterprise Management-managed financial information addresses all facets of distribution, wholesaling, and manufacturing so that you can simultaneously consolidate financial data, integrate global data, and coordinate international and decentralized units. This includes integrating views and management of customers, partners, suppliers, and all other stakeholders in your business.
With Enterprise Management’s capabilities of incorporating the publication of web services in any web application, your organization can quickly adopt new tools and processes to take advantage of new online applications and modes of business that continue to evolve around the globe
The pace of business today is ultra-fast, especially for companies competing across multiple geographies. There is little time for long, drawn-out processes that hinder business flexibility and performance. Sage X3 answers the need for accelerated business processes with an Enterprise Management cloud deployment option that incorporates all the advanced functionality of the latest version of the Enterprise Management product.

Consider, for example, the use of Sage X3 for distribution operations. An organization can gain business agility without adding additional staff. Enterprise Management automates workflows across product management, sales, and purchasing with deep inventory management capabilities for quality control, costing scenarios, lot and serialization, and pricing. Enterprises also gain complete intercompany transactional support and vessel/container tracking for global visibility.
