## Reviews

### "Safe Accounting for accounting done right\!" — 5.0/5

> **Denis** | *22 December 2024* | Environmental Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Excellent software, lots of options that you can do on it which is completely the opposite to MYOB per example. It integrates with all other softwares including expense claim management systems, payroll systems etc… Easy to use, easy to manage, easy to run reports from it. Staff have been mentioning also that it’s not a slow system. They seem to have a great server which makes a big difference on the daily basis usage.
> 
> **Cons**: A big pricey but I guess you have to pay the right price when it comes to accounting software\!
> 
> Extremely happy with it. We changed software to Jobpac due to a business merge.

### "Good service with lack of support." — 4.0/5

> **Rex** | *23 August 2024* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The system is efficient and very effective for accounting.
> 
> **Cons**: Lack of software support, they are more for building profits through consulting rather than providing a service.
> 
> An effective option, however there is lots that they could improve.

### "Good Accounting Software, but Customer Support Could Improve" — 4.0/5

> **Andrea** | *3 August 2026* | Translation & Localization | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We only tested Sage as part of our evaluation process and ultimately decided not to select it as our accounting solution. During the trial, we found the platform to be feature-rich, with solid invoicing and financial reporting capabilities, and it appeared capable of meeting the needs of many businesses.&#10;&#10;However, we found that the overall user experience did not fully align with our requirements. While the platform offers good functionality, we also had a less-than-ideal experience with customer support. Responses were slower than expected, and it was sometimes difficult to get timely assistance during the evaluation process.&#10;&#10;Overall, Sage seems to be a comprehensive accounting solution with a broad range of features, but based on our trial and our experience with support, we decided to move forward with a different provider.
> 
> **Cons**: The main downside for us was the customer support. During our evaluation, response times were slower than expected, and it was sometimes difficult to get clear, timely assistance. We also found that some workflows were less intuitive than we had hoped, which contributed to a steeper learning curve during the trial. Ultimately, while the platform is feature-rich, it didn't feel like the best fit for our needs.
> 
> Our overall experience with Sage Accounting was positive, but it ultimately wasn't the right fit for our business. We evaluated the platform during our selection process and found it to be a comprehensive accounting solution with strong invoicing and reporting capabilities. However, we experienced slower-than-expected customer support and found some aspects of the interface less intuitive than we would have liked. After comparing it with other solutions, we decided to move forward with a different provider that better matched our requirements.

### "Desktop great, Online a work in progress" — 4.0/5

> **Melinda** | *27 April 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I have found sage Desktop to be consistent product. I have been using for over 15 years and I find it is extremely reliable and rarely experiences bugs. As someone who is incredibly busy I value this immensely.
> 
> **Cons**: As a hybrid worker when I finish work on my office PC and don't let it sync completely before opening the file on my home laptop, I have experienced sync issues and data corruption. I see the potential, but I think there is still much work to be done on the cloud side of Sage.
> 
> Overall I prefer the desktop for its reliability, but I have high hopes the online version will only continue to improve as that is the direction I think the industry is headed.

### "Need to Modernize it More" — 3.0/5

> **Rita** | *7 July 2026* | Building Materials | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The reporting feature is good.  Provides a lot of detail.  Reports are visually appealing.  Like the feature of account statements where I can click on the invoice and brings it up without searching for it.
> 
> **Cons**: The invoices and payments/receipts are separated.  I would like to see everything under each vendor's or customer's account.  I have to do a lot of digging and searching around to ensure we don't pay an invoice twice.  I don't like that Sage allows to pay one-off payments without documenting it as a bill.  If I look up an invoice or bill, it will not show.  I would then have to look under payments to see if a bill was paid.  This feature gets very frustrating and is time consuming.
> 
> It's okay, not the most user-friendly.  The price we're paying is not worth it.  Should be charged less.
