Sage, the leader in accounting, financial, HR, and payroll
technology for small and mid-sized businesses (SMBs), has launched
two new suites in Canada and the UK, to transform how SMBs and
accounting practices operate and grow their business.
Bringing together Sage’s award-winning accounting, HR, and
business management tools into two scalable solutions, Sage for
Accountants and Sage for Small Business, marks a significant step
forward in Sage's commitment to championing SMBs, accountants and
bookkeepers.
The new suites are purpose-built to meet the changing needs of
accountants, bookkeepers and SMBs, helping them to get more done by
freeing up time, whilst boosting efficiency and productivity. With
Sage for Accountants and Sage for Small Business, users can focus
on what matters most, from growing their business and providing
great service to pursuing their passions outside of work.
Three customizable membership plans — Essentials, Standard, and
Premium — will scale to match the unique needs of businesses and
accounting practices. Small businesses, accountants and bookkeepers
are now able to self-manage users and subscriptions, all in one
integrated solution that is paid for on a single monthly
invoice.
“With these new suites, we are making it easier for data and
work to flow between our products, helping accountants, bookkeepers
and small businesses do more — easily and efficiently,” said Neal
Watkins, EVP, Accounting and HR, Sage. “Our goal is to eliminate
complexity and provide essential tools that not only ensure
business success, but also enhance the value of human work. That is
why our suites are designed to reduce administrative burden and
seamlessly integrate, transforming how businesses and accountants
operate.”
Introducing Sage for Accountants
Designed to enhance the functionality and productivity of
accounting practices, Sage for Accountants streamlines client
management, simplifies operations, boosts efficiency and enhances
client collaboration. Even for those not using Sage ledger tools,
it enables continuous accounting with seamless integration between
tools, so they can harness the value of every tool across all their
clients, freeing up more time for client relations.
"As an early adopter of paperless accounting, I was intrigued
when Sage launched Sage for Accountants, and instantly saw how this
has what it takes to be game-changing for many firms. Accountants
can now enjoy more efficiency across various key functions needed
to run their business, which will ultimately create more time for
doing what they love,” said Ryan Lazanis, a Montreal-based CPA and
CEO of Future Firm, which helps accounting firms systematize their
business.
With evolving market demands, Sage for Accountants is an
integrated experience that will help practices to:
- Win and onboard more profitable clients:
Attract high-value clients efficiently by leveraging access to one
of the largest accountants’ communities worldwide and a
comprehensive accounting directory.
- Boost productivity with efficient compliance
services: Ensure regulatory compliance with ease and
confidence using Sage for Accountants, saving valuable time and
resources.
- Deliver a trusted advisory service: Provide
clients with expert insights and guidance for business growth,
enhancing their trust and fostering long-term relationships.
“Sage for Accountants is an exciting leap for Sage, and I love
that it is built around an accounting practice model,” said Denise
Wong, CPA, Managing Director for Mirai Consulting, a
Vancouver-based accounting firm. “Sage for Accountants is going to
save time and increase internal efficiencies. As a firm that uses
technology to shape our future and our clients’ futures, we can see
how this will allow for the integration of processes that were
typically siloed and improve our quality of service to
clients.”
Empowering SMBs with Sage for Small
Business
Making it even easier for entrepreneurs and small businesses to
run and grow their business, Sage for Small Business simplifies the
long list of jobs to be done from managing cashflow to engaging and
managing a team of people. By bringing together critical business
tools and expert advice designed for small businesses into a single
suite, business owners can free up their time to focus on growing
their business and what truly matters to them.
The suite enables small businesses to start with what they need
and will grow with them, helping them to:
- Streamline repetitive tasks: Enabling
real-time data flow across accounting, payroll and HR from a single
user interface, simplifying operations and saving small business
owners' valuable time.
- Gain enhanced business insights: With instant
access to critical business and financial information, business
owners can make smarter decisions, and collaborate closer with
accountants on the same digital data.
- Remain confident with compliance: With over 40
years of experience building small business technology, offering a
wealth of advice and award-winning support and services, Sage helps
ensure small business owners have access to simplified tax, VAT and
payroll compliance through the latest technology.
Sage Copilot to be integrated into suites
As part of the launch of the new suites, UK customers will be
the first to get access Sage Copilot, a new generative AI-powered
productivity assistant.
Integrated within Sage for Accountants and Sage for Small
Business, Sage Copilot is designed to transform operations by
automating routine administrative tasks and offering real-time
business insights. This allows small businesses to operate more
efficiently, and accountants and bookkeepers to make smarter,
faster decisions, and focus more on strategic client management
rather than administrative tasks.
Sage Copilot will initially be launched in the UK in 2024.
Canada is the next region Sage Copilot will be rolled out to and
will be available at a later date.

for Small Business.
