### "Need an intermediate alternative "

December 2, 2025

1.0

Good product but too expensive for the current needs as the first layer miss key items and Sage Accounting is a bit too much for 1-2 employee company

Pros

Complete suite and there are a lot of integrations with banks and other key systems that makes our life easier.

Cons

The value for money. My company has only one employee and we need it for just basic needs and the first layer has features regarding opening balances missing but this product is a bit too much for those kind of companies that I am at. It kind of need an intermediate

### "A Review of Sage Accounting Start"

December 8, 2025

5.0

I found it easy to learn. It just requires minimum knowledge about financial reporting requirements. Perfect for our small, non-profit business.

Pros

Easy to learn for someone with no bookkeeping or accounting background and good value for the money.

Cons

The annoying ad that comes up when I'm trying to log in to ask me about starting a subscription when I already have a subscription.

### "Sage feedback"

January 21, 2026

4.0

Overall, I am very satisfied with sage and would not switch to another software provider. It balances good user experience with price point.

Pros

Sage has made my accounting much easier! I find it's a good value for my money. I love the easy reports that make me more informed on where my business money is going. I love that it's all on the cloud so I can access it on multiple devices/locations.

Cons

I feel like the customer support could be improved, it's hard to speak with a human and takes a while to get the line.

### "Reliable and Affordable Accounting for Small Business Needs"

March 18, 2026

4.0

For day-to-day bookkeeping, it generally does the job well. Tasks like invoicing, expense tracking, and simple bank reconciliation are straightforward once you get used to the system. It’s also relatively stable, so users don’t often worry about data loss or major bugs.

Pros

What I liked most about Sage Accounting is its good value for basic features, its ease of use for small business operations, and the availability of support when needed, making it a practical choice for everyday accounting. I like the online access.

Cons

Simple tasks (like reconciling accounts or generating reports) can take more steps than expected. Compared to competitors, Sage Accounting can feel basic. Things like advanced reporting, inventory, or integrations are often limited unless you upgrade.

### "Early days using Sage"

January 30, 2026

5.0

It is early days. I think it will become easier as time goes on. \[sensitive content hidden\] was very helpful getting us on board.

Pros

Our accountants can easily access our program. Saves time and money. Like the reports and customized invoices.

Cons

If I had not taken a course, I would be totally intimidated by the program. Needs a step by step set up so that the program is customized for the user.

### "Solid Product with Room for Growth"

May 19, 2026

3.0

I have no complaints, just enhancement wishes. It would be nice to have edit capabilities to change dates of payment received, and reporting needs to be expanded to include sub-categories so that the parent/child relationship can be reported on and filtered once exported.

Pros

As a beginner, the UI is easy to navigate and the help feature is intuitive when a process isn't clear.

Cons

When deleting an invoice, there should be a prompt to delete corresponding payment so you don't end up with duplicate entries. Also, there should be an increase in the file size allowed when uploading invoices/receipt image files.

### "Sage for the W"

January 16, 2026

5.0

This has been an azing online eperience at work. Keep up the good work, everyone. Sage Accounting lets us do it.

Pros

Sage Accounting made keeping track of my client's expenses much easier. I was able to familiarise myself cery quickly and use SA to do my job.

Cons

My client isnasking me for a final report on all the categories he's given me. The vendors list lines up, however getting groups of them to report in a straight line all together is eluding me right now.

### "Meets the basic needs"

May 4, 2026

4.0

It meets the very basic needs. Set up was fairly simple and bank transactions are easy to do. When I have chatted with a real person, they were no more helpful than the chatbot.

Pros

Its easy to post transactions from the bank. Its easy to customize the Chart of Accounts. Its easy to make corrections.

Cons

The chatbot is not helpful. There is very limited reporting and the Profit and Loss Statement and Balance Sheet are not customizable. The training and help materials are limited. They tell you how to click to complete a task, but they don't. I haven't been able to figure out the taxes, but I can work around it manually, with some inconvenience.

January 21, 2026

5.0

Pros

I like the interface, and the ease of use. I like the fact that there are APIs we can use to integrate with our app.

Cons

As a developer, I would like to be able to return in the past so I could undo some changes, but we can't.

### "I’m disappointed "

December 15, 2025

2.0

Disappointed. I was expecting more from Sage. My accountant sold me on sage and it’s cost me more than advertised. Even the beginning link was difficult and confusing to get set up.

Pros

Nothing yet. I have not been able to access any information. The invoice portion of your product is lacking so many features, it’s frustrating to use.

Cons

I have not been able to access any information. I can’t see what my accountant has input into the program. I can’t make any changes to the invoice portion.

I really like Sage accounting, very user friendly even for someone who doesn't accounting. Custumer services is great and fast.

Cons

I don't really have a cons, but i would say it's a bit slow sometimes or maybe I too fast? Anyways when we log in or when we do a transaction and clic "save" its a bit slow.

### "Intuitive software makes accounting easier "

January 21, 2026

Excellent accounting software for small business owner. I use this monthly quick and easy to input and I am up to date!

Pros

The ease of inputting information. Very intuitive. I am not an accountant and have had no issues with retrieving information once inputted. Does tax returns easily.

Cons

Trying to change information once it’s been reconciled. Aldo once invoices have been inputted hard to change information.

### "Functional but Far from Smooth"

September 17, 2025

5.0

I used it as an external accountant. Overall, the experience has been somewhat frustrating. The reporting features don’t feel as intuitive as QBO, which makes it harder to get the information I need quickly. On top of that, the two-factor authentication adds extra steps that make the process feel slower and less efficient. While it works, it hasn’t felt smooth or user-friendly compared to what I’m accustomed to.

Pros

Since the platform is entirely online, it allows multiple users to access the same space at once, making it easy to share ideas, update documents in real time, and work together seamlessly from different locations.”

Cons

I find pulling reports in this system quite awkward and not as intuitive as what I’m used to with QBO. On top of that, the two-factor authentication process feels a bit cumbersome and adds extra steps that slow things down.

Pros

The web site version is easy to use. It's mostly intuitive for someone that is not an expert in accounting

Cons

The default account codes didn't suit my need. I haven't found an easy way to redefine them other then deleting and recreating them one by one.

Generally ok except for constant crashes

Pros

Generally easy to use. Many built-in functions not used by my company.
