What differentiates Sage 50cloud from other similar products?

We have not had any issues with connectivity or accounts pulled from the system. It is well secure and password protected.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The Sage system is certainly one of the more simple pay roll systems that I have used within my time in payroll processing. The layout is simple and not too over complicated as it can be with other systems. Everything is easy to find which greatly assists when you need to process payroll. I have also used Sage for raising and processing of purchase orders, again this feature is easy to use and easy to train out to other staff members

What do you dislike most about this product?

I have not had any issues with Sage50 Cloud.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

It would be good to have an automatic approval flow system in process.

What differentiates Sage 50cloud from other similar products?

Sage 50Cloud is one of the most user friendly softwares available on the market, it is important that new employees can easily grasp a software that is new to them, some in-house softwares from more corporate companies tend to be finicky and harder to understand, this leads to confusion and potential mistakes on the system, the last thing any new business would want is to double up on work because of software interfaces and lack of easy access.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The fact that you can import data into the system saves so much time, and when it comes to accounting you will find a lot of your time manually entering transactions that can take all day, the fact this can be automated is surely one of its best features, not to mention some of the reports are useful as well.

What do you dislike most about this product?

I wish they expanded on their reporting section, there is a lot of potential to understand your company success/failure from different angles, there are a lot of number illiterate employees in every company so it is important that everyone can understand the purpose of these reports without being confused, they could work more on their user friendly reporting options.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I would say this product is in the top 3 worldwide for a reason, it does have its flaws, but ultimately if you are starting out as a business and want a clear and simple software that provides basic to intermediate level financial reports then definitely pick Sage 50Cloud. It took me no time to learn how to enter transactions and reconcile bank accounts. Creating sales and supplier invoices are easy and it will make your life easier if you can learn to automate these procedures like I did.

Pros

Trustworthy
Performance Enhancing
Inspires Innovation
Respectful
