What Contractors Pay

Side-by-side entry

Sage 300 CRE vs Viewpoint Vista

Two columns from the same ledger: verified contractor reports where they exist, penciled estimates from cited public sources where they don't. Never mixed.

Sage 300 CRE

Sage

No public figure on the books for Sage 300 CRE.

Construction and real estate accounting for larger contractors and developers.

Penciled estimate

A user on Sage's own community forum, discussing the forced move off the traditional Silver perpetual-license service plan, reported being offered a 10% discount for switching to the subscription ('Gold Plus') plan in year one, but that year two would land roughly 15% higher than their current Silver-plan price.
