System Requirements: Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate version 18
Minimum requirements


Internet Access Required
In order to install and use Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate version 18, your server and workstations must have internet access to properly license and entitle your purchased products/modules.

Note: Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate, Sage 50, and Sage 300 cannot be installed on the same computer because they use different versions of Pervasive that are not compatible with each other. Contact your business partner or support professional for possible solutions if you need to run these products congruently.

Recommended configuration

Recommended server configuration

Operating System

  • Windows Server 2019 (only with Sage 300 Construction and Real Estate versions 18.3.1 and higher)
  • Windows Server 2016
  • Windows Server 2012 R2

Note: Microsoft Windows Server 2008 R2: As of January 14, 2020, Microsoft no longer delivers any new security patches. Based on Microsoft's end of life dates, Sage no longer includes Windows Server 2008 R2 as a Recommended Operating System and recommends that Sage 300 CRE customers using this operating system move to a current operating system.

Note: Windows Essentials Edition and domain controllers are not supported.

SQL software

If you plan to use Sage SQL Replicator, you will need SQL Server version 2016 SP1 or later. You can use the Sage SQL Installer (in the Sage Administration program group). The size of the replicated data in SQL Server is larger than the original Pervasive data because Sage SQL Replicator adds views and indexes the data. You can use SQL Express (available at no extra cost) if your database isn't too large. Otherwise, you must use full SQL Server (Standard Edition or Enterprise Edition). See the DocLink: How do I estimate what the size of my SQL Database will be once I run Sage SQL Replicator? article in the Knowledgebase.

Hardware

Depending on your use of Sage SQL Replicator, use a physical machine or VM with the dedicated resources shown below:

  • Not using replicator:
    • CPU: Current generation multi-core processor* with 4+ cores; 1.6+GHz
    • RAM: 8+ GB**
    • Hard drive: Hard Disk Drive (HDD) or Solid State Drive (SSD)
  • Replicator with minimal, scheduled, or on demand replication:
    • CPU: Current generation multi-core processor* with 4+ cores; 2+ GHz
    • RAM: 8+ GB**
    • Hard drive: Hard Disk Drive (HDD) or Solid State Drive (SSD)
  • Replicator with live/continuous replication:
    • CPU: Current generation multi-core processor* with 8 cores; 2.4+ GHz
    • RAM: 32+ GB**
    • Hard drive: Hard Disk Drive (HDD) or Solid State Drive (SSD) with 200 MB/seconds of sustained read/write throughput

*Such as Intel® Core i3™, Intel® Core i5™, Intel® Core i7™ or Intel® Xeon™.

**Depending on the size and number of your databases, the number of concurrent users, and if additional business applications are hosted on the same server.
