Pros

“What we liked least about Sage Accounting was its limited functionality for not-for-profit–specific needs. While it handles basic bookkeeping well, it lacks more advanced features such as fund accounting, detailed grant tracking, and restricted fund management, which are often essential for not-for-profit organizations.”

Czarina C.

Senior Finance Officer

“Features like automated bank feeds and real-time financial visibility help reduce manual work and improve accuracy, which is important when resources are limited.”

Czarina C.

Senior Finance Officer

“The software allows me to generate detailed financial reports with ease, providing valuable insights into my business's performance.”

Sophie S.

Admin Manager

Pros

“I also like how you can link to Aatrix for 1099 printing. ”

Amy O.

Payroll and AP Manager

“Helps extremely well with sending out 1099's, setting up new projects, vendors and having the ability to cut in house checks and sending out checks (physical or electronic draft)”

Natasha H.

Human Resource Associate

“I don't feel like they were rolling out very many updates.”

McKenna C.

Accountant

Cons

“The reconciliation process could be significantly improved, and both invoicing and expense tracking lack the level of efficiency and automation that is now standard in many competing tools. While Sage does market AI capabilities, they are not meaningfully integrated into the core user experience of Sage Business Cloud Accounting.”

Blanka D.

Owner

“no report that captures P&L detailed together for cost centres, currently can only view one at a time, I need a report that lists all and breaks it down by Income and exp for comparison”

Tara I.

bookkeeper

“Returns/refunds are confusing and writing stock off for store use is also a little difficult, as you need to open two tabs and search each item individually for their cost.”

Alexis B.

Sales Associate

Cons

“I didn't like that we couldn't integrate Expensify with it, and that the reports that we generated as excels weren't easily filtered.”

McKenna C.

Accountant

“The receivable module is still not available in the browser view nor are the EFT payments in Canada.”

Colin F.

Business Administrator

“It takes a very long time for support and usually the ineffective solution is that we should clear our cookies or history, or we are sent something to read.”

Jennifer S.

CFO
