Accounting software FAQs

Accounting software is a solution that helps businesses or sole traders manage their finances. The software helps with daily tasks, such as managing bills, payments, and inventory. It can also help users record and process their financial transactions, and make financial reports to help businesses make key decisions. Using accounting software saves time, reduces mistakes, helps businesses stay compliant with legislation, and makes financial work easier and more accurate.

Cloud-based accounting solutions are accounting systems hosted in the cloud rather than installed on your desktop or manually maintained in spreadsheets. The software for cloud accounting is hosted on a remote server instead of a server on your business’ premises.

The majority of our accounting solutions work in the cloud, so you don't have to install anything—you simply access the product through your internet browser. However, Sage 50 Accounts does need to be installed on a computer in order to use the cloud capabilities. For all our cloud solutions, we recommend using the latest version of your browser to enjoy a better experience.

Sage online accounting is one of the most secure places to store your financial documentation. We understand your data is sensitive and that's why we make security our most important consideration. Our accounting application is safe and good to go, on the go.

Instead of constantly working in your business, now you can work on your business. With the right solution, you can take care of manual financial processes automatically and help your business run smoothly using your laptop or mobile device. Automate manual bookkeeping processes and avoid wasting time rechecking your figures and dealing with errors.

With our online accounting solution, you can save time, get accurate real-time insights into your company’s finances, collaborate with your team regardless of your location, and reduce business expenses.

Our cloud technology ensures your data is automatically backed up, so you can rely on us to protect important information.

Sage Copilot is a generative AI productivity assistant that can transform how you manage your business and do your work.

It is an intelligent tool that automates complex tasks, offers personalised business advice, and provides proactive recommendations to improve performance. It will adapt to your evolving needs as you use it.
