Sage is one of the most famous companies that offer business management software and services to millions of people ( they estimate their clients to a number of 5.4 million people around the world). Their target customers are companies, small or huge corporations; they have the perfect choice for everyone. The different software packages allow the companies to have a better management of their business process. Currently the company is global as size and fame, providing business management software in all corners of the planet. Although they have huge corporations as clients, they have a 25 year-old tradition of doing business with small and medium sized companies. Their secret is the fact that they treat every customer individually and offer them the exact product that matches their needs and purposes.
Sage software offers high quality products and the latest technology in order to ensure the right choice for every customer, also providing expert help and support at local level. There are a lot of different Sage software packages, according to the needs of every customer, all business software. Here are just a few of them: Sage Abra HRMS, Sage ACH Processing, ACT! by Sage, Sage Business Vision, Sage Active Planner, Sage Fundraising, Sage Intergy, Sage Carpe Diem, ProvideX, Sage Master Builder, Sage medical Manager, Peachtree by Sage, etc.

Sage software company has a very complex web site, but it is admirably structured: you can find anything you want if you make the necessary choices. The offer is so vast, that you have to choose exactly what you want and then you are shown exactly what software package is the most suitable for you.
There are some other web sites that promote Sage products and offer demo versions for testing, allowing you to have a preview of the product you intend to buy (www. 2020software.com). The prices are a bit high in my opinion (they can range from $2000 to $100.000), but of course, we are talking about software packages designed for big companies, offering them business strategies in order to obtain a perfect gain and to be prosperous. And, as you know, knowledge is power and power must be rewarded/paid for.

The success of this company is based on the fact that all the people who run a business, either small or big, enjoy planning and developing that business, dreaming of its expansion or even dreaming to count the piles of money they will hopefully make, but none of them likes the bookkeeping. This is, no doubt, the most unpleasant and less rewarding part of a business. However, it is impossible to run a successful business without having a great accountant or accounting software. That makes every Sage software product really desired and businessmen are willing to pay quite large sums just to ensure the perfect bookkeeping and business management software for them.
Nonetheless, due to its vision and business knowledge, Sage software company does not forget the little or about to be businessmen and entrepreneurs and has come up with a special offer for them, too, of course, for an affordable price. That is the case of Sage start up package designed especially for the above mentioned category. The price is, of course, a lot diminished ($149) compared to the other packages, but so are the features offered. Basically Start-Up is a simplified accounting package that makes it so easy to understand what is the main principle in business: profit. It shows two graphic screens "Money in" and "Money out" that illustrates quite clearly the logical flow of a transaction. The user simply clicks on the right icon and is provided a data entry form and after completing it he can choose another icon from the menu or simply navigate elsewhere with the help of tabs.

The program can perform operations both with cash and credit and a back up file can be sent at the end of the financial year to a registered Sage accountant for checking, revision and correction. The software automatically generates the necessary financial reports in PDF format: Profit and Loss, Balance sheet and Audit trail. They must be checked and then sent to IRS. The start up software offers the necessary tools for assessing the strengths and weaknesses of your business and can even come up with a plan of measures for the future.
Another valued software belonging to Sage is Sage Timberline Office, which is a whole family of integrated financial and operations software. It presents a cross-functional system designed for accounting and estimating the needs of a company. The package offers a variety of applications, including the right time to sell the respective company. In this case it is very important to provide accurate estimates, as they constitue the basis for all the future decisions of the company.
This software is a valuable asset for a company because it maximizes the profits and reduces the risks and the amount of time necessary for all the estimation and bidding process that are included in the software package. The perfect solution offered by this business software combines four elements of office management: estimation, purchase, project control and accounting. The software does not offer a help menu, but you can directly access help at one of over 50 centers of support spread all over North America and Australia.

The bottom line is that Sage Timberline office is a wonderful software designed especially for the small and medium size construction companies. At first you will have to spend a lot of time until you can master all its functionality and features, but i can assure you it is worth it. Your time and money is not spent in vain, as this is the perfect solution for your construction business.
And these are only two examples of the multitude of software packages available on the market that are provided by this software colossus. All software packages offered for purchase offer competent advice and ensure success on a market where there are lots of competitors and where you are very good or you die. After all only the best can resist and the proof is that Sage software has been on top for so long.

Don't give Sage too much credit. I worked for this company for years, and ******line Software for much longer before they were purchased by Sage. Here is the rub. Sage is not a high tech company as their marketing leads you to believe. They do not compete with MS, Oracles, etc., in the sense that they a high tech leader. They are a group of bankers in England who acquire software companies. They are a holding company. When they purchased ******line Software, they lead that campaign with countless lies. since then, the quality of the products have as well as their service. This is due to their mode of operation: cost based accounting and very little R&D budget. They have latterly sucked the life out of that company. They only maintain great product that was created and designed by someone else. If these truths are hard to digest, I would suggest that you take a random questionnaire of their legacy customer base about life with Sage. Although they still manage good products, I would be leery of my long term investment in products owned by sage because of their business model: they are a holding company. Holding companies sooner or later will “release” their investments for a profit.

Accounting systems form an integral part of any successful business. Proper accounting not only helps the organization know its monitory worth, but also works as leverage to climb the ladders of growth
