Great company. I’ve been with them for many years and the transition to their new system has been very smooth. There’s a lot of value and noticeable upgrades. Their customer service team is very helpful, and I honestly wish I had leaned on them for advice and support much earlier.
SAS is a fantastic company which promotes the highest levels of customer service. I’ve been a customer since 2020 and I’ve always had the best sales and service staff interact with me. Taneice helped me today and was amazing. She handled at least 4 separate issues for me quickly and easily and was quick to follow up with an email outlining what we changed and added onto my account. I have all praise for this company.
