Sage 50 is a very powerful software package. It has different versions for different levels of financial activity. One should be sure the cost of Sage 50 fits their budget. One should discuss with a local Sage 50 expert what one wants from an accounting software package. One should also look at the setup costs of Sage 50. Is one going to hire a local expert to help with the setup? Finally, one should get an accounting software package that can grow with their business needs.
After considering all of the above factors, one should pick the correct Sage 50 package that fits their needs. Sage 50 will perform very efficiently.

For general accounting use, the program works well for us. However, we use an outside payroll processor and a separate billing database for our detailed billing. Through the use of import/export, we are able to tie these together.

SAGE is truly a great tool for manufacturing and can handle a million dollar business easily. It can also handle most small businesses that just require day to day Accounting duties. I wouldn't recommend it for large organizations requiring time tracking or revenue recognition. I'm sure there is technology that I never needed and that is available but I will need to dig deeper to really give sound advice on further recommendations.

Sage 50 is well-suited to a small to mid-size company, either a service or simple distribution organization. It is best used by those who have a competent bookkeeper (but then all accounting software should be used by a competent bookkeeper) and a competent operations person if using inventory features. Manufacturing can be managed with the manufacturing edition, which utilizes Misys add-on. Sage 50 would not be appropriate for larger companies who require many custom fields, or any custom programming interface. It is not generally appropriate for WIP accounting in the manufacturing process or those who need to track inventory by Lot #, expiration/warranty dates, multi-bin locations or multiple warehouses.

As previously mentioned, I used it strictly for fairly basic accounting: keeping track of multiple accounts, sending invoices, recording payments, etc. I think that it is perfectly suited to do those things, so if someone was looking for a way to accomplish those tasks I would recommend Sage 50.
