Invoicing to clients, profit and loss reports, VAT returns, keep up to date on cash flow and knowing how my business is performing every day > > **Cons**: I want to be able to compare this YTD performance with LYTD performance and that isn't possible to do ----- ### "Bedford, Simply Accounting then Sage Accounting" — 4.0/5 > **Vincent** | *24 March 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: I find Sage accounting to be one of the most user friendly for all types of users. I consider it 95% complete. Which in my opinion excellent. No software solution in the market is genuine 100% complete. There will always be something missing. > > **Cons**: For Offline users it has become one of the worst. I do not recommend it 100% for offline users. It has become extremely expensive. > > I have bee using this evolving accounting software since 1981. It has evolved into Simply Accounting and then Sage Accounting. in the 80's and 90's we used to pay between $200.00 to $500.00 yearly and had more for our money then today, you even owned your license. Nowadays it has been converted to subscription type, charge our clients thousands of dollars. and if you cancel your subscription, you can no longer use the software, not even adjust all entries. These days our clients pay thousands of dollars without even owning their licenses. There must be still some other software that allow you to have control over your license. This is insight contemplating to seek other solutions. Shame that in 2026, technologically we may be advanced, however ethically I have my concerns. I still value integrity and recommend to my clients not to fall in the trap of technology, but instead consider their needs. ----- ### "Accountant cannot access my online files" — 3.0/5 > **Heike** | *21 January 2026* | Broadcast Media | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: I am using business cloud and I like many of the features. It is relative easy to learn and easy to use. I like that I can access my files from a PC and from a Mac > > **Cons**: I switched to business cloud on the recommendation of my accountant who uses Sage 50. I do my own bookkeeping and I wanted my accountant to have direct access to my files. He was also supposed to get me up and running on the new to me software. Because I was running late with tax returns I handed one year's worth of bookkeeping to the accountant firm. They would then migrate the date from their Sage 50 into my business cloud for a seamless transition. I was assured that this was not a problem by Sage and my then accountant. Well the accountant was not able to migrate the data because they could not gain access to my account. I even gave them my personal sign in but they were unable to migrate the data. I was so disappointed that I switched accountants. I lost a whole year worth of historical data and had to start a new file. Well, at the end of this year my new accountant ran into the same problem. He was not able to access my accounts and Sage support was not able to solve the probem. He spent several hours with them in chat and I have the chat files to prove he tried (phone support is not provided). This I find unbelievable and unacceptable and so does he. The problem has not be solved to date\! Truly this must be a structual problem known to Sage So, I am stuck now paying the subcription for Sage cloud even though it does not do what I was promised. I find this very questionable and deceptive. > > Overall completely dissatisfied with this Sage product with my accountant not being able to access my files as promised. I will revise my review if and when Sage offers a solution to my dilemma. Thinking of switching to Quickbooks online which means I lose another year of data. ----- ### "Easy to use, but low-cost option has reduced functionality" — 4.0/5 > **Lindsay** | *23 June 2026* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: The interface is very user friendly and certain features really save time. I like having all of our accounting data online so it won't be lost in the event of a technical malfunction. > > **Cons**: Sage Accounting Start has limited functionality in some regards. For example the ability to document refunded expenses, or deduct the cost of employee housing from paychecks. > > I'm mostly happy with Sage Accounting, though some minor improvements would make the lower cost version better. ----- ### "Sage50 versus Sage Cloud (not very innovative)" — 4.0/5 > **Valerie** | *20 January 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 4.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have been using Sage 50 for over 15 years and I have always found this product very easy to use, fast in execution, with many reporting possibilities, very professional software and without bugs....But my enthusiasm flew away when I switched to Sage Cloud. > > **Cons**: For the past two years, I've migrated all my clients to Sage Cloud, thinking I was taking a step forward. But honestly, I regret my move. I feel like I'm going backward when it should be even faster and more efficient than Sage 50. And my clients aren't very happy either. For example, one of my clients has five companies but manages everything under a single email address. However, it takes a different email address to open a new company, which I find ridiculous. Elsewhere, there's a master (owner) account where you can add multiple companies, but it's still just one account. Secondly, the project-based accounting isn't very advanced. I can't generate a single report with all the projects included. If I have 15 projects, I have to generate 15 separate reports. This will be nonsensical by 2026. The same goes for manually transferring GL balances to the net profit at the end of the year. This should be done automatically. These are just a few of the irritations I encounter on a daily basis. > > I am a loyal and faithful person. I hope these fixes will be implemented quickly and that the product will be more competitive with QuickBooks and others. ----- Page: 1 / 27\ Next: [Next page](https://www.getapp.co.uk/software/90589/sage-one-uk?page=2) ## Links - [View on GetApp](https://www.getapp.co.uk/software/90589/sage-one-uk) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-MX | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
