In this space we try our best to outline the benefits of each new MAS 90 and MAS 200 release from Sage. We also use events like the Sage MAS 90 and MAS 200 User Group meetings to highlight and demonstrate the features. However, with Sage consistently developing and issuing new versions, it is difficult to catalog and re-count all of the reasons you might upgrade to a newer release. Here is a recap 10 reasons you might want to upgrade to 4.3.

TOP TEN REASONS TO UPGRADE FROM PREVIOUS VERSIONS TO 4.3

1. Go green: Save money and the environment by utilizing Paperless Office capabilities to generate documents, email, fax, and efficiently store and retrieve them electronically.

2. Use quick-click charts to graphically represent trends and other knowledge you’ve gained from your ad-hoc Business Insights Explorer reports.

3. Streamline your tax reporting process for Federal, State, Unemployment, Payroll, New Hire, 1099s, and W-2s.

4. Reduce the time and cost associated with processing and printing payroll checks by utilizing direct deposit, and provide your employees with secure online access to view their information.

5. Keep your finger on the pulse of your business by starting your day with the business information that you need most right on your desktop, using your personalized Business Insights Dashboard.

6. Simplify report selection with straightforward terms, readjust your selection criteria, and return to the report selection screen after printing.

7. Get up-to-the-minute status of customer orders in process—shipping and customer service personnel can access and view the same info—New, Lines Complete, and Shipped.

8. Proficiently manage your fixed assets by auto-creating assets when you’re entering invoices in Accounts Payable.

9. Thwart errors by establishing appropriate discounts for your customers; view and make adjustments to the order before processing.

10. Print your standard reports and forms automatically on your default printer, regardless of who previously saved the report.
