Having worked with both, SAP if by far the worst of the two.
But Sage is another league. Want an API? Sure, here you go. Oh, you want it to do something usefull? I’m afraid we can’t do that.
It’s so bad their client ask actual third parties to create custom APIs to be able to actualy do something.
If you are lucky you’ll have a good third party, if your’re not you’ll be like me, trying to do something without any docs, and api datapoints that make no sense unless you have said missing docs.
Those fuckers can’t even chose what format to give to their id. Sometimes it is a string with a lenght of 7, sometime 13, sometimes an int.
Sounds much like PowerBI, which I can’t say I’ve used much directly. But every time we use it, because the client likes the idea and it can theoretically do “all the business intelligence” natively…we eventually find it can only do 80% of what they actually want, which completely removes its single advantage and forces us to go custom anyway. We’ve stopped offering it, to be clear.

I’ve seen a factory being shoehorned into using it. Maintenance planning and all.
Needless to say that its not working out well.
and, ime, it takes a full second to open any dropdown menu
Interesting. How does it compare to ms Access (in the 90s I guess)?

Access is also a full “cms” for constructing program interfaces, ui.
I have seen fully fledged programs written in it, and it wasn’t pretty.
Dynamics sounds like it is “excel/sql with data analysis strapped on”, where access was “excel/sql with frontpage strapped on”
