Sage 50 Premium Accounting

Overall Satisfaction with Sage 50cloud Accounting (formerly Sage 50 Accounting)

We use sage 50 in our smaller or less complicated business. It addresses the need for a simple, well known system that we can implement quickly.
  • Simple and straightforward to use
  • Common system so many people are already familiar with it
  • Allows remote access
  • Remote access can sometimes fall over
  • Help desk has very long wait times
  • Stock is not integrated automatically into p&l
  • Positive return
  • Relatively cheap
  • Off the shelf solution for small companies

Yes

Would you buy Sage 50cloud Accounting again?

Yes

It's simple and very familiar software. It doesn't allow every variation but it is straightforward and understandable to use
The support is good once you get through - the main issue is hold times - it can often take more than 2 hours to be able to speak to someone
It is very well suited to slightly lower volumes of transactions in simpler businesses. It does not cope with more complex requirements such as p&l by customer. Remote access from sage drive is also good where people work in different locations
