Kingston, October 20, 2021: Sage 50 Accounting -formerly Simply Accounting is a simple and easy-to-use accounting software that that provides the tools needed to manage a business and streamline operations.
Most users view the software as decent and easy to use when managing cash flow, invoicing and billing in the language of their choice. Small businesses can keep their financial affairs in compliance with a full-time audit trail and automatic in-house payroll tax calculations and updates. The software easily manages cash flow and keeps track of sales transactions, customers and suppliers, usually without the need for any accounting know-how.
User review forms have discussed functionality as one of the several hiccups that the accounting software lacks in. Chart of accounts does not have a true hierarchy, therefore totals cannot be rolled up for sub accounts. Some reports are also detected to omit data because it comes from a specific "journal" and there is no way to make the report include all relevant "journals".
Another major setback is the software’s lack of transparency around its products. Offering a substantial range of products and plans, users are known to struggle to differentiate between those products. For example, many small business owners do not know whether Business Cloud Accounting, Sage Intacct, or Sage 50cloud is the right choice for them.
Furthermore, time tracking is not included with either of the plans, and a subscription is required for receipt capture service. This functionality is only available only with the Sage Accounting plan.
With regard to pricing, Sage 50cloud Pro Accounting starts at $340 a year, Sage 50cloud Premium Accounting at $510 a year and Sage 50cloud Quantum Accounting at $842 a year. Microsoft Office 365 integration is available for $150 per year.
QuickBooks is one of the most well-known accounting software ideal for businesses or start-up companies who do not have extensive staff or finance departments. The software easily allows business owners to keep track of their expenses, revenue, and payroll information for employees. With QuickBooks, users can also record bill due dates, enter payment information for repeated bills and print checks directly in QuickBooks. With ease, QuickBooks auto synchronizes all checking accounts and credit cards and any and all transactions that appear in such accounts would be automatically reflected in QuickBooks.
Creating financial reports are straightforward allowing users to create yearly income reports and financial forecast reports that can be easily transferred to Microsoft Excel for recordkeeping.
