Researcher's Summary:

Sage X3 is fairly easy to use and supports a robust set of features. Completing orders and quotes is easy. User permissions are easy to manage, and upgrading to newer versions is easy. Some users felt that it is not easy to use on mobile as the software has been designed for desktops. While the software itself is good, most users did not find support helpful, and tickets are passed on to multiple technicians, who are unable to solve the issue. While the tool is customizable, the service is not offered by Sage and users have to hire a third-party vendor to customize the tool according to their requirements.
