Love hate relationship
We are migrating from Abra Suite so it is excellent that it is so similar but the upgrade path is ROUGH..
Pros
It is an excellent on prem solution to HR and Payroll for a company that wants allot of functionality for a reasonable price.
Cons
Performance and stability. Very slow on launch to the point that every user gets the loading twice message because the click and click. Screens can crash if you push them. I believe this is because there is still foxpro lingering underneath the covers in the screens.

Sage HRMS - Takes effort but worth it.
The learning curve was quite steep but since we have been using the software for a while now, we are much more comfortable with it.
Pros
The system has many features within the program itself to store information, provide status and look-ups. Set up is extremely important to have done correctly in order for the software to function fully and correctly.
Cons
Reporting features are limited requiring an upgrade to incorporate Crystal Reports to obtain needed information for tax payments and reporting purposes.

Does it All
Sage HRMS makes it pretty easy to run our payroll in house and gives us tons of information about our employees' pay.
Pros
We use the HR and Payroll module as we process payroll in house. There are so many processes available that we don't use, but are available for larger companies. The HR side is very easy and user friendly. The payroll side is less intuitive. There are many stock reports and the on-board Crystal Reports makes it easy to create others as needed.
Cons
The payroll side is very detailed and complicated to set up. Sometimes there is no good explanation for why something has to be done in a particular way, so you just have to do it and not really understand why. Coming from Abra, HRMS payroll took some getting used to. The rounding doesn't always follow normal conventions, so we sometimes have to chase down pennies to make sure everything is exactly correct.
