Mike Ditka kicked off Sage Summit 2016 today by huddling the Sage Executive team and welcoming more than 2,000 Sage Partners to Chicago. [RKL eSolutions](https://www.rklesolutions.com/company/why-choose-rkl/) is here along with more than 100 of our customers and prospects to learn how Sage is transforming its products and partner programs to drive growth into the future.

**What differentiates Sage from the competition?**

Sage is the only publisher in the world with business applications covering the lifecycle of business; from start-up through scale-up to enterprise. Sage offers freedom of choice and solution growth paths for companies with solutions from Sage Live to Sage X3.

**Five Pillars driving the Sage transformation**

At the core, these pillars are paramount to the focus of the Sage team to achieve its goal to be the most desired brand in the marketplace today.

1)      Winning in the Market – Sage is dedicated to delivering the best products, the best customer experience and best brand.

2)      Customers for Life –  while there are no ‘forced migrations’ in the portfolio, Sage aims to make it easier for customers and non-customers to grow with solutions across the Sage products.

3)      Revolutionize Business – Sage strives to deliver innovative, easy-to-use solutions leveraging modern technology through mobility and the Internet of Things (IoT).

4)      Capacity for Growth – by providing simple, scalable solutions through a vibrant partner ecosystem.

5)      One Sage – a global [network](https://www.rklesolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/05/3Ps-Buyers-Guide.pdf) leveraging the strengths of Sage, its portfolio and its partners.

**The week ahead**

Over the course of the next three days, Sage intends to reinforce its dominance across the globe with the recurring message of:

- Leveraging its Existing Assets – touting the strengths of its portfolio for business applications like ERP, Fixed Assets, CRM, and Payment solutions and ensuring 100% compliance.
- Product Delivery – Product Roadmaps will demonstrate Sage’s commitment to delivering mature products that are easy-to-use by carefully balancing design and function.
- Innovation -  technology that disrupts the competition by adopting leading technologies using Cloud and the Salesforce Platform to develop solutions like Sage Live.

During the week of Sage Summit, the RKL eSolutions team will keep you informed about strategic product updates especially for Sage 100, Sage 100c, Sage X3, Sage X3 Cloud, and JobOps.
