Sage X3 ERP Software That Adapts With Your Business

Sage X3 is an ERP solution developed by Sage Group. This Sage ERP solution is ideal for mid-sized companies—particularly manufacturers and distributors—that want big-business ERP functionality without the cost and complexity of heavyweight systems like Oracle or SAP. This Sage ERP system manages Sales, Finance, Inventory, Purchasing, CRM, and Manufacturing in a single integrated solution.  

How much does Sage X3 Cost?

By far the most frequently asked question in any discovery session, this, of course, has the most unhelpful answer: "It depends..." But we'll try to give you an idea. 

A Sage X3 annual subscription starts at $25,000 before implementation; implementation typically starts around $150,000 but can run significantly higher, depending on the project's complexity. Additionally, factors such as your industry, the number and types of users,  and add-on modules impact the subscription price. Head over to our Sage X3 Pricing Guide to learn more about how each of these factors could impact the cost for your company. Try our Sage X3 Cost Estimator on that page to get a tailored estimate.
