Preparations you can make to continue to run your business during uncertain times

As a Sage customer, it’s never been easier to work remotely and empower your business and customers. We’ve put together a list of tools and helpful tips to keep your business on track when you may need to work somewhere other than your office.

There are several ways that you may be able to access your data remotely, and we recommend you work with your Sage Business Partner and IT specialist to determine which method is best for your company. Some of your options are:

  • Set up a terminal server that holds your software and all of its data allowing users to remote in to the server and work within the software
  • Set up a Virtual Private Network (VPN) so that users can access their work computer through Remote Desktop Protocol (RDP) or Citrix from a home computer. For details please reference our Supported Platform Matrix
    Note: Sage 100 Advanced and Premium are most suited for remote access. Please refer to Chapter 14 of our Installation and Administrator’s Guide for more detailed information.
  • Back up your data daily and store somewhere so that you can access it remotely
  • Install your software on a laptop or PC that you can bring home and work using a backup of the data
    Note: If multiple people will need to access the data this may not be the best option because you would need to re-enter the data from all users when you are able to get back to the office.
