Sage 500 ERP (formerly “MAS 500”) is an integrated suite of business modules that was designed to maximize operational efficiency and increase productivity across every aspect of your enterprise. Released in 1998, it was architected in VB6 and optimized for Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft Operating Systems.
Since 2014, Sage 500 ERP has essentially been in maintenance mode, receiving basic usability enhancements along with security updates, hotfixes, and updates for Microsoft compatibility with newer versions of Windows OS and MS SQL Server.
As a result, RKL eSolutions has refrained from selling new licenses, engaging in new deployments, and is no longer accepting new Sage 500 ERP clients. While we are not taking on new clients for ongoing support of Sage 500 ERP, we can help you migrate to your next solution. We have migrated many of our Sage 500 ERP clients, and we can help you. Contact us to see how!
