Sage Estimating has been repackaged, including new functionality and modernized deployment—evolving and innovating to meet the demands of our customers and the market. And now our Standard customers have a clear migration path to SQL.
What's new in this version
Version 17.11 includes many exciting changes, including the following new features:
- Alternates.
- Integration with Sage 100 Contractor (SQL).
- A new data connector that can import information from and export to Microsoft Excel (for example, WBS or alternate values).
- A simplified WBS selection workflow.
- Several usability improvements, including reorganized ribbon icons and shortcut commands for the spreadsheet.
- Additional database and estimate reports.
- Performance improvements.
- A new license and entitlement system that does not depend on hardware.
Note: When migrating to v17.11, your license will be converted automatically to:
- Core, if you are a Standard Estimating user.
- Core Plus, if you are an Extended Estimating (Pervasive) user. (Existing SQL Estimating users will also be converted to Core Plus.)
