Sage 100

This is a direct quote from a new client converting from Business Works ""When I spoke to Sage last month, they suggest that they may have developed a file converter for companies moving from Business Works to Sage 100. I have the impression the converter was in testing = Beta."" Does anyone know if Sage is really doing that or is there some sales or tech person there spouting off BS? Maybe thinking of the old data migrator tool that died about 10 years ago?

So far as I know there's no data migrator.

I have an e-mail into my special Sage contact (one that's survived the cuts through the years). I mistrust anything Sage says or does regarding BW, since they had all those promotions to get users off of BW and then backtracked saying it was not being discontinued - many customers then got mad at us for telling them it was going away. Even though Kelly has said no forced migration, I can see this segment ""evolving"" away based on promotions that BW users cannot reject.

Nothing that I have heard of and had asked about a few months back since we migrated 4 from BW to Sage 100 over the spring/summer months. Probably sales ""Fluff"".

Sage spending money on a BW converter??? Yeah right! Psst, hey buddy. Wanna buy the Brooklyn Bridge? I can make you a deal! It appears some more Sage speak telling the client something to get them off the phone.

I don't know if the client misunderstood or what, but that is what I figured.

Confirmation from 2 levels at Sage that there is no migrator and no plans for one.
