Reconciliations are easy to do and you can fix items really easily when mistakes are made. Also customer support is excellent as if you have any issues there is always someone you can talk to to get them fixed. They are also very knowledgeable about the product and never talk down to you if you've done something stupid. The reporting system is easy to use and very effective in producing departmental P\&Ls etc. Also the guides that Sage have are easy to find and very easy to follow. I would definitely recommend Sage to anyone as I find it saves time so is value for money. > > **Cons**: I do not like the invoicing system. You can either go through the supplier or go to invoices and generate a new one, which is confusing and if you delete an invoice it does not always delete on the customer. Also once you save an invoice it disappears which means you have to go back into the invoice to print and put the invoice to the ledger. If you wish to change an invoice to a supplier already set up, it will still show the original wording in the system. > > Overall, using Sage for invoicing, banking and producing reports, especially department reporting, is easy to set up and end users love the reports. ----- ### "Tried to switched and regretted it\! (based on price)" — 5.0/5 > **Samantha** | *29 June 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have tried the others and they are not as user friendly, when you consider that operative time is the most valuable resource to a company, Sage is the most useful tool to free up that resource. All the software does the same thing, but the way in which users are able to interact which the software to impact their business is the most important tool, whilst being able to ensure that their time is utilised. VAT, CIS and end of year reports without the stress and complications. Not even going to put myself through the needless worry of migrating elsewhere again. When I moved had to call VAT as a serious error had been reported by their software, almost got myself in trouble. > > **Cons**: The issues have been dealt with over the last few updates. It was the bank recs, had issues trying to upload the bank statements. I have recently tried the AI tool, and found that I was able to use it without even looking at the helpful hints, so smooth, will continue to use this. > > To me I am able to manage my accounts, have the confidence that my company accounts are where they should be. As with all, yes would like them to be cheaper, but then they would not be providing the updates and listening to the customers such as myself and making the improvements. ----- ### "Good quality product that's adaptable to business needs" — 5.0/5 > **Heather** | *19 June 2026* | Farming | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The ability to filter and search for items within the records is great. Being able to edit the reports to suit our needs is also very good. Emailing invoices and statements direct from the software is very easy. Customer support is always relatively quick to get through to and they seem to have a good knowledge and resolve any issue promptly. > > **Cons**: We have quite a large package and the cost is quite high for a relatively small business. Also, we use sage cloud payroll because we only have a few employees and it's good enough for our needs, but the cloud payroll isn't able to feed into Sage 50 Accounts. > > Our experience has been very good and it's become a vital part of our business's every day functioning. ----- ### "Software that grows with you and your business." — 5.0/5 > **Sara** | *24 June 2026* | Facilities Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I find it very user friendly, great access to a multitude of reports that allows a wide overview of your business’s productivity and financial status. Invoicing is easygoing and easy to track. Accounting principles allows for easy transaction management. Always someone on the other end of the phone for customer support. Seems good value for money and allows for business size, so you’re not paying for more than you need. > > **Cons**: I struggle to find anything I don’t like about the system has served our company well for a number of years. > > Easy to get to grips with, regardless of accounting ability and grows with you as you and your business grows. ----- Page: 1 / 26\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/174753/sage-50cloud?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.co.uk/software/174753/sage-50cloud) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | | es | | | es-AR | | | es-CL | | | es-CO | | | es-CR | | | es-DO | | | es-EC | | | es-MX | | | es-PA | | | es-PE | | | fr | | | fr-BE | | | fr-CA | | | fr-LU | | | it | | | nl | | | nl-BE | | | pt | | | pt-PT | | ----- ## Structured Data
