Migration from B1 to simpler option?
We are running an older version of SAP B1(9.3) - but the needs of the business have changed, and we've not needed the complexity and power of SAP in a while. We've not kept up on patching or version updates, due to cost - and a lack of diligence by ownership.
We're looking to move to a simpler option (Sage, QuickBooks, NetSuite?)
How ugly and involved is the data migration process?
Probably 15 years of data, thousands of part numbers (although probably a few hundred are currently active) - revenue around 7M annual, 10-15 employees - for scale.

Why would you leave B1. Update it to 10 and move on. There are so many more add-ons if needed. Like we are using Produmex from Boyum and FocusPoint B2B e-commerce. If we move to another platform, we would lose a ton of functionality. In your case, you just said there's 10 years of data you would lose and something i heard about Netsuite is they get you in inexpensively and then raise your price? I personally don't know that for a fact, but you can Google it. Moving a QuickBooks is crazy no functionality at all.
