Sage 300 Construction

  • The Internet Archive's capture of Sage's product page on 25 December 2019 confirmed Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate as a distinct 'Other products' entry separate from the mainline Sage 300cloud accounting product, with no price figure published for either.

  • All three bundles (Model Management, Preconstruction and Construction Operations) are sold by Get a Quote with no published price
  • Capability is split across separate bundles, so a firm needing preconstruction and construction operations buys two bundles
  • Pricing is described as user, project and account-based rather than a single published per-seat rate
  • The money-back guarantee is limited to 30 days
  • Expert support hours are 24 hours a day Monday to Friday, so weekends are not covered
