# A Closer Look at Sage 100c: Answers to FAQs

By [Patrick Haley](https://blog.bcsprosoft.com/author/patrick-haley) |  Feb 16th, 16 | Categories: [Pending Update](https://blog.bcsprosoft.com/tag/pending-update)

Concurrent with the release of [Sage 100 2016](https://www.bcsprosoft.com/whats-new-in-sage-100-2016/) back in November, Sage also launched a new product called [Sa](https://www.bcsprosoft.com/sage-100-mas90-mas200/sage-100c/)[ge](https://www.bcsprosoft.com/sage-100-mas90-mas200/sage-100c/)[100c](https://www.bcsprosoft.com/sage-100-mas90-mas200/sage-100c/). We already wrote fairly in depth about the product (2,084 words to be exact), the direction Sage is taking, what “c” stands for—or doesn’t,  as well as answered a lot of frequently asked questions. In this article we’ll take a closer look at Sage 100c and we’ll provide answers to some frequently-asked questions we continue to get from our clients.

If you really want to get a deep dive of Sage 100c and even see some screen shots of the new UI, [check out my post from November](https://www.bcsprosoft.com/sage-100-mas90-mas200/sage-100c/).

## What is Sage 100c Exactly?

It’s easiest to think of Sage 100c as a new **deluxe** version of the same core Sage 100 (MAS 90/200) software that has been available for decades. Existing customers of the “traditional” Sage 100 product would discover that features, workflow, and functionality in Sage 100c are nearly identical.

## So What’s the Main Difference?

The main difference from the standard Sage 100 product is that Sage 100c features a totally new and modernized user interface along with unique screen and desktop personalization options. The new interface is also designed around mobile technology so you get a more modern Sage 100 experience across multiple devices from your desktop or laptop to your mobile phone or tablet.

## How is Sage 100c Priced and Packaged?

Another difference from the traditional Sage 100 product which is sold under perpetual licensing is that Sage 100c is available on a **subscription basis only**. Sage 100c customers can choose monthly, 1-year, or 3-year billing. The product is available in 3 prepackaged bundles including **Essentials**, **Advanced**, and **Complete**.

In a nutshell, the Essentials bundle includes core financial functionality like GL, AP, AR, and Bank Reconciliation. The Advanced bundle adds sales, purchasing, and inventory. The Complete bundle offers everything in Essentials and Advanced plus RMA, Bar Code, and Bill of Materials. Some modules are also available a la carte including Job Costing, Work Order, and MRP, among others.

## Should I Switch?

Since Sage 100c is a new premium option, current on-plan customers pay 15% over their existing Sage Business Care renewal cost to switch and upgrade to Sage 100c. While things can change down the road as new releases come out, Sage 100c – as it stands today – is functionally the same as the “traditional” Sage 100 product you may already be using.

So the question of whether you should switch will depend on how much value the mobility, modern interface, and bundled subscription pricing will have on your unique operations and business. In short, Sage 100c offers a way to leverage new and modernized technology without disrupting your current processes, workflow, and product familiarity. If you have any ISV solutions or third-party add-ons such as [Automated Rental Management](http://www.bcsprosoft.com/sage-100/automated-rental-management/) you’ll want to contact the publisher to make sure they are compatible with Sage 100c.

As always, should definitely reach out to your Sage 100 Account Manager here at BCS ProSoft to see if the upgrade even makes sense for you at the moment. If you don’t have a Sage partner, feel free to give us a call at 800.882.6705 or [contact us online](http://www.bcsprosoft.com/contact/) if you have any questions.
