Plus, on top of all the features in Pro Accounting, you&rsquo;ll also get access to advanced reporting, job costing, auditing, and budgeting features.<\/p>\n<p>If you&rsquo;re a sole trader, having access to these capabilities could cause more confusion than good. However, for growing businesses or individuals that run multiple companies, the Premium Accounting option is worth the added investment.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Quantum Accounting &ndash; $160 \/month<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>For larger accounting teams, Sage 50 Accounts&rsquo;s Quantum Accounting plan is a well-rounded, powerful platform.

So, to make sure we used the platform to its full potential, we tested the solution over one month. Here&rsquo;s a look at the top features:<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Customizable dashboard <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-149843\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Dashboard.jpg\" alt=\"Sage Accounting's customizable dashboard\" width=\"800\" height=\"466\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Dashboard.jpg 982w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Dashboard-300x175.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Dashboard-768x447.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>One of the things we like most about Sage 50 Accounts is the customization options. Once you&rsquo;ve launched the program, you&rsquo;ll have the opportunity to set up a unique dashboard with the data and analytics you want to see.<\/p>\n<p>Compared to other providers, this is quite the USP, enabling you to log in to Sage and immediately see useful information, rather than having to click between screens.<\/p>\n<p>That said, we have to note that setting up and using Sage 50 Accounts is not the most intuitive experience. If you&rsquo;re new to the world of accounting software, the amount of jargon, information, and dashboards can be overwhelming.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you&rsquo;re a seasoned accounting professional, then Sage&rsquo;s accounting functionality and the breadth of reports and graphs available will be a welcome sight.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Inventory management<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-149836\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Inventory-Management.jpg\" alt=\"Sage Accounting's inventory management feature\" width=\"800\" height=\"631\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Inventory-Management.jpg 650w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Inventory-Management-300x237.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>When it comes to inventory management, Sage 50 Accounts stands well above competitors like QuickBooks and Xero, thanks to its granular functionality. With this software tool, you get real-time data on your inventory levels, and you can record separate items with great level of detail.<\/p>\n<p>On top of that, we thought that the insights the platform generates stand above the rest. If you take the time to configure the software, you can set it to send automated warnings when you&rsquo;re nearly out of stock, along with reports on your best-selling products.<\/p>\n<p>For all the benefits, though, the inventory management functionality isn&rsquo;t exactly plug-and-play. To get the most out of the platform, you&rsquo;ll need to manually enter stock information. Depending on how many products you sell, this could be quite time-consuming, although it will undoubtedly save you time in the long run.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Invoices<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-149837\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Invoices.jpg\" alt=\"Sage 50 Accounts's invoicing feature\" width=\"800\" height=\"629\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Invoices.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Invoices-300x236.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Invoices-1024x805.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Invoices-768x604.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>Sage 50 Accounts&rsquo;s invoicing feature is well-rounded. We love that you can customize invoices in several ways, and we&rsquo;re sure that users will appreciate the templates available. As to be expected, Sage 50 Accounts also offers automation capabilities for monthly or recurring invoices.<\/p>\n<p>We also like the &ldquo;Pay Now&rdquo; feature, which lets clients instantly pay for the services or products they&rsquo;ve received, so you receive the money into your bank account instantly, without having to wait several days.<\/p>\n<p>On top of its robust invoicing feature, Sage 50 Accounts really comes into its own with its reporting functionality. By combining invoice data with expenses, it builds a month-by-month picture of your business&rsquo;s cash flow.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Project Costing <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-149838\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Project-Costing.jpg\" alt=\"Sage 50 Accounts's job and project costing feature\" width=\"800\" height=\"632\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Project-Costing.jpg 1222w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Project-Costing-300x237.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Project-Costing-1024x809.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Project-Costing-768x607.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Project-Costing-1200x949.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>Going over budget on a job is frustrating but not uncommon. To help users mitigate the risk of unprofitable work, Sage Accounting 50 has a feature called job and project costing. After we inputted a bit of data about our current projects and their associated costs, Sage Accounting 50 created a helpful dataset, showing us our net revenues.<\/p>\n<p>For organizations that work on a project basis, we can see how invaluable this feature could be. However, just as with invoicing, it takes some initial time to input all the necessary data before you can gain any insights.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Banking Capabilities<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-149839\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Banking-Capabilities.jpg\" alt=\"Connect Sage platform with a bank account\" width=\"800\" height=\"634\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Banking-Capabilities.jpg 646w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Banking-Capabilities-300x238.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>Forget having to manually input expense data into the Sage 50 Accounts platform. This provider can automatically connect to your bank accounts, making account reconciliation a walk in the park.<\/p>\n<p>We found this feature seamless to use. Once you connect the platform with your bank account, the solution does all the work for you, and it was 100% accurate for us.<\/p>\n<p>We were also pleased to realize that, if you don&rsquo;t want to connect your bank account to the platform, you can import your banking data easily by uploading a bank statement. Once you do this, Sage Accounting 50 will autonomously analyze your documents and perform the reconciliation for you.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Payroll Functionality <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-149840\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Payroll-Functionality.jpg\" alt=\"Sage's payroll add-on\" width=\"800\" height=\"401\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Payroll-Functionality.jpg 1202w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Payroll-Functionality-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Payroll-Functionality-1024x513.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Payroll-Functionality-768x385.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Payroll-Functionality-1200x601.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>For a minimum of $10 extra per month, you can access Sage&rsquo;s payroll add-on. We tried this feature out as part of our free trial and were impressed by how cooperative the features were. With options to include retirement plans, insurance plans, and templates for federal tax forms, this feature is ideal for internal accounting teams in growing organizations.<\/p>\n<p>However, if you&rsquo;re just a small team, or are new to the world of accounting, then Sage&rsquo;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/accounting\/best-payroll-software-for-small-business\">payroll system<\/a> could feel a little intimidating. Other providers, like QuickBooks and Xero, are more user-friendly.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Sage Security Shield<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>One of Sage&rsquo;s unique selling points is its cybersecurity capabilities. Sage Security Shield comes free with the Sage platform and offers excellent features like dark web monitoring, business credit monitoring, and access to a fraud hotline.<\/p>\n<p>While it&rsquo;s possible to buy fraud protection separately, having accounting and identity theft mitigation measures consolidated into one platform is undoubtedly helpful for growing businesses.<\/p>\n<div class=\"su-button-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/visit\/sage\" class=\"su-button su-button-style-flat\" style=\"color:#FFFFFF;background-color:#0070e0;border-color:#005ab4;border-radius:10px\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\"><span style=\"color:#FFFFFF;padding:0px 26px;font-size:20px;line-height:40px;border-color:#4d9bea;border-radius:10px;text-shadow:none\"> Try Sage 50 Accounts Now<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<h2><span id=\"integrations\">Integrations<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Sage 50 Accounts is highly customizable, but there&rsquo;s a catch. Most of the integrations on offer are built by Sage, meaning you can&rsquo;t integrate third-party applications with the platform.<\/p>\n<p>However, we have to say that Sage&rsquo;s in-built integrations are impressive. With options like Credit Hound to reduce late payments and AutoEntry to automate bookkeeping tasks, Sage 50 Accounts has a wealth of integrations to make a powerful solution even more powerful.<\/p>\n<p>We also noted that, for an extra fee of $6 per month, we could add time-tracking functionality through eBillity. The lack of time tracking was one of the downsides we noted with the platform, so we&rsquo;re pleased to see this offered as an extra, even though it costs more money.<\/p>\n<h2><span id=\"sage_accounting_customer_reviews\">Sage Accounting Customer Reviews<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>So far, we&rsquo;ve been impressed by Sage 50 Accounts. While we think the platform is a little too robust and data-heavy for freelancers, we believe it&rsquo;s a great fit for growing businesses with accounting expertise.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, we wanted to see how other users felt about the platform, so we gathered reviews from websites like TrustPilot and G2 to make our review more well-rounded.<\/p>\n<p>On TrustPilot, users praise Sage for its excellent, hands-on customer support and insightful reports. However, some users criticized the software for being slow to run and cumbersome. While we found the software worked speedily for us, it&rsquo;s worth starting with a free trial to check your device is compatible before purchasing.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-149841\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Review-TrustPilot.jpg\" alt=\"A Sage Accounting review on TrustPilot\" width=\"800\" height=\"217\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Review-TrustPilot.jpg 1312w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Review-TrustPilot-300x81.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Review-TrustPilot-1024x278.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Review-TrustPilot-768x208.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/Sage-Accounting-Review-TrustPilot-1200x326.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\"><\/p>\n<p>On G2, a couple of other reviewers criticized Sage Accounting 50 for poor speed but, with a score of 4 &frasl;

With its powerful inventory tracking, job costing, and advanced reporting features, Sage 50 Accounts is the perfect choice for businesses with complex structures, or who rely heavily on product-based sales.<\/p>\n<p>QuickBooks, on the other hand, is simpler and sleeker in its design. For newer businesses or those with a simple structure, this provider has all the functionality necessary to make accounting simple, although it will lead to more advanced companies wanting.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more in our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/accounting\/quickbooks-online-review\">QuickBooks review<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Sage vs Zoho Books<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Sage and Zoho Books share many similarities, although Zoho is noticeably cheaper. However, to get the most out of Zoho Books, you&rsquo;ll need to use other platforms within the Zoho suite, such as its CRM tool, project management tool, and so on.<\/p>\n<p>In this sense, even though Zoho Books looks cheaper, once you start purchasing add-ons, the price quickly balloons.<\/p>\n<p>For that reason, Sage 50 Accounts stands as a firm favorite against Zoho Books, offering better reporting functionalities and invoicing capabilities as a standalone platform.<\/p>\n<p>Learn more in our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.techopedia.com\/accounting\/zoho-books-review\">ZohoBooks review<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Sage vs Patriot<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Patriot and Sage are also designed for distinctly different audiences. Patriot accounting is geared towards individuals who are new to accounting, and its limited features reflect that. You can&rsquo;t track inventory, track time, or customize reports. Saying that, at an inexpensive price and with a user-friendly interface, the platform will certainly appeal to freelancers and startups.<\/p>\n<p>Still, Sage comes up trumps here.

Here are some things to keep in mind as you deliberate over the different options:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Pricing: <\/strong>Delve into the cost of the software, considering both the initial investment and the expenses over an extended period. Opt for a solution that is not only affordable now but also becomes increasingly cost-effective as your business expands.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Features: <\/strong>Examine the features provided in each plan. Seek a provider that can fulfill as many of your requirements as possible without necessitating additional software purchases. In case you are weighing options between two plans from the same provider, ensure that you don&rsquo;t overlook essential features present in a higher-tier plan.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Scalability: <\/strong>Contemplate your business&rsquo;s long-term growth plans and assess whether the chosen software offers the flexibility to scale as your business expands and acquires more customers.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Ease of Use: <\/strong>Any software investment should be user-friendly, intuitive, and enjoyable to use.
