Sage 50 Rules!

All accounting functions including payroll are processed through Sage 50.
  • Great job of integrating all modules.
  • Tax reports are easy to produce with most of the info already input.
  • Although Federal Payroll support is extra, I have never had any problems with accuracy. It's easy to run credit cards through the system.
  • I want the ability to print out Payable Invoices.
  • I would like cost analysis to be more integrated.
Are you setup for cloud storage or is that extra?
