Like the business builders we serve, Sage began as a startup. Our founder David Goldman wanted to automate accounting processes in his own business. He worked with a team of Newcastle University students to develop software to make it happen—and realized other businesses could benefit from this too. In 1981, he formed Sage. In 1998, Sage came to North America with the acquisition of leading desktop accounting software, Peachtree. Today, Sage has 13,000 employees and serves millions of customers in 23 countries across mainland Europe, Africa, Australia, Asia, and Latin America.

Our solutions manage accounting, HR, payroll, payments, assets, construction, real estate, and enterprise systems. They travel with business builders wherever they’re needed—in the cloud, on-premise, or both—offering the freedom to work with mobility. Our solutions fit the needs of startup, scale up, and enterprise companies—whether that means staying on top of their finances, empowering their people, or unleashing their power to grow.
