We bring decades of Sage experience — including engineers who built X3 from inside Sage — to support, host, develop, and optimise your ERP. No generic helpdesks. No black-box contracts.
On-premise ERP hosting creates invisible risk. Most organisations don't discover the cracks until something breaks — and by then, the cost is enormous.
The Big Cloud Problem
The "Big Three" were engineered for enterprises with dedicated cloud teams and six-figure infrastructure budgets. If you're an SMB running Sage X3, you're paying for complexity you don't need — and getting support from people who've never touched your ERP.
Most on-premise Sage X3 backups are either not running, not tested, or pointing to a drive on the same server they're meant to protect. You won't know until it's too late.
Paying a hosting provider every month with no dashboard, no reporting, and no idea what you're actually getting for your money? You deserve better than a black box.
Need to test an upgrade or train new users? If spinning up a non-production environment is a multi-week project, your team is being held back by infrastructure.
Every service we offer was designed with one thing in mind: keeping your Sage X3 running at peak performance, with zero infrastructure headaches.
Purpose-built hosting environment optimised specifically for Sage X3 workloads. Not a generic cloud VM — a managed platform tuned for ERP performance with full visibility into your environment.
Daily automated backups with documented restore procedures that are actually tested. Offsite redundancy included. Your data is protected and we can prove it.
Custom development, workflows, integrations and modifications delivered by engineers who understand the X3 architecture deeply — including a developer who worked on X3 inside Sage itself.
Clone your full production Sage X3 environment in under 60 minutes. Test upgrades, train users, validate customisations — without touching production.
We measure success in tangible outcomes — not promises.
A manufacturing client had been running Sage X3 on aging on-premise hardware for years. Backups were silently failing with no disaster recovery plan in place. We migrated their entire environment over a single weekend with zero data loss and minimal downtime. The result was dramatically faster performance, daily verified backups, and the ability to spin up a complete dev environment in under one hour.
A client was locked into a premium hosting contract with a major provider — paying top dollar for a black box with no dashboard, no reporting, and no control. We migrated them to our managed platform, cut their monthly hosting cost by 50%, and gave them full visibility into their own environment. They now see everything, control everything, and pay half of what they were paying before.
Not a generic IT company that also does ERP. A specialist team built around a single platform — with credentials most of our competitors simply cannot claim.
Founder & Managing Director
Qualified Cost & Management Accountant with decades in the Sage ecosystem — spanning products like Pastel Accounting long before their Sage acquisition. Deep business process expertise means we don't just fix your system, we improve how you use it.
Lead Developer
A former Sage engineer who worked on X3 development from the inside. This isn't someone who learned X3 from documentation — this is someone who helped build it. That depth of knowledge means faster diagnosis, cleaner code, and solutions that actually hold up long-term.
Development & Support
A highly experienced Sage X3 developer specialising in customisation, system integrations and performance optimisation. Between our development team we cover the full X3 stack — from database layer to end-user screens.
Sage Partner Affiliated. Business Automation Systems operates in affiliation with Teksys, a registered Sage Partner. This affiliation gives our clients the confidence of Sage's partner ecosystem backed by a boutique specialist team.
Three steps from where you are to where you should be.
We audit your current Sage X3 environment, identify risks, performance gaps, and backup failures — then deliver a clear migration roadmap. No cost. No commitment.
We handle the entire migration to our managed platform with minimal disruption. Most migrations complete over a single weekend with your team back online Monday morning.
Ongoing management, 24/7 monitoring, automated backups, and a support team that knows Sage X3 inside out. You run your business. We run your infrastructure.
Led by a qualified Cost & Management Accountant, we understand the business logic behind your ERP — not just the technical layer. That means our advice improves outcomes, not just uptime.
We don't support everything. We support Sage X3. That focus means your environment is managed by people who understand your ERP at its deepest level — including an engineer who built it.
Unlike black-box hosting providers, we give you full visibility into your environment. Your data, your infrastructure, your control. No surprises on the invoice. No guesswork on performance.
No commitment. No sales pressure. Just a clear picture of where you stand and what's possible.
