Pythagoras upgrade Golfbreaks.com from Sage Line 50 to Sage 200

MAIDENHEAD, U.K. - July 29, 2013 - PRLog -- As a fast growing business Golfbreaks.com faced many of the challenges associated with Sage Line 50. To avert any further data corruption and to enable maximum productivity beyond the current limitations Golfbreaks.com seeked an upgrade of their existing Sage
50 system to the latest version of Sage 200, making use of Microsoft SQL Server database management system.

With the analysis of the accounts (and the presentation of management accounts, profit & loss and balance sheet data) being performed in Excel; Golfbreaks.com wanted to also
restructure the Chart of Accounts from Sage 50 to provide for a deeper level of analysis by Area.

Previous Solution

Previous to their upgrade to Sage 200 Golfbreaks.com used Sage Line 50 2008 Financial Modules (Sales, Purchase and Nominal Ledgers with the Cash Book) to meet their financial requirements.

Why Sage 200?

The existing Sage Line 50 was beginning to struggle with the volume and complexity of transactions being processed by Golfbreaks. In looking for a more robust solution, Sage Line 200 was selected as a familiar product, but with the ability to provide additional features, flexibility, capacity and longevity of use to the business. A Key feature relevant to
Golfbreaks.com’s decision to move to Sage 200 included its multi currency capabilities.

Why Pythagoras?

Ellen Jaques, Financial Controller at Golfbreaks.com discussed why Pythagoras was chosen as their Sage 200 partner. “Pythagoras was selected from the considered suppliers due to the product knowledge and customer service levels that they provide. Their project management, post sales training and support, and competitive pricing were also key factors when determining which supplier to choose, and Pythagoras were able to deliver on each of these crucial requirements.“

Jeremy Cook, Sage Divisional Manager at Pythagoras further commented, “I am delighted we have been able to empower Golfbreaks.com with their implementation of Sage 200 which underlines our position as one of the leading Sage 200 Strategic Partners in the UK.”

The benefits

Further benefits include its speed and capacity – things that took 40 minutes in Sage Line 50 now process in a matter of seconds, and it deals much better with having four or five users in the system at the same time.

Sage 200 Financial Statement Layouts will be used to create financial reports that Golfbreaks.com can use to report by Department, without having to do any manipulation in Excel.
