Sage 1000

As of 31st December 2024, Sage will no longer offer development of the platform to address bug fixes, legislative changes or required updates. Business partners will be able to support the solution for up to five years after the retirement but will also be unable to address development or code changes.

Operating your business and finance operations on unsupported software could present considerable risk to your business including cyber security risk and the risk of losing accreditation such as ISO or Cyber Essentials, due to the inability to update the solutions to address legislative changes, compliance issues could also arise from January 2025. Sage 1000 may be operating on unsupported versions of Microsoft technologies which also presents considerable security risks to your business.

Sage offers three solutions for medium sized businesses in the UK, all implemented and supported by Datel. These are Sage X3, Sage Intacct and Sage 200. Each solution offers a range of functionality and technology that is superior to Sage 1000. Datel will support you in evaluating the three solutions and offer advice on selecting the right one for your business now and in the future.

Yes, Datel’s Sage 1000 migration programme makes sure you have support for your Sage 1000 solution whilst selecting and implementing a new Sage software. Our expert and experienced teams will plan and deliver a migration that aligns to your objectives and our data migration tools will ease the process.  We’ve worked with many customers who have made the move and benefited from aligning their new Sage solution to their business processes and operations. Our knowledge of your current Sage 1000 setup and the defined new solution will mean you are in safe hands.

The length of a migration depends on the complexity of your business and the solution you are moving too. We recommend you plan for six to twelve months as a project period, but can be clearer on timescales once you have selected the solution you are moving to. Datel’s migration projects follow our tried and tested implementation methodology with clear milestones and project management so you can ensure the project stays on track alongside BAU.

Every Datel project includes training and support to ensure that when your solution goes live you feel equipped and ready to run your business effectively on the software. We also have a Sage accredited Support team that's on hand to support you throughout your time using the software. This award winning team has exceptional customer feedback and is focused on addressing your concerns to resolution in a timely fashion.

All three Sage solutions available from Datel have clear and defined roadmaps from Sage. Additional applications and integrations available mean you can add to your solution as your requirements flex and change. Datel’s Account Management and Customer Success teams will make sure that your tech strategy stays aligned to your business strategy for years to come. And, the long term partnership our Sage 1000 customers have benefited from will continue on your new solution.
