I appreciate the layout, and the flow of the transactions. > > **Cons**: I wish there were updates on some rudimentary features.... being able to email a paystub to someone who you aren't also using direct deposit. Don't upsell me, sell me a product that is evolving. > > I've had more than 20 years of experience in a variety of industries with Sage 50. I choose it for every new client and recommend it to others. ----- ### "OK software to begin with" — 4.0/5 > **Lenny** | *June 24, 2026* | Entertainment | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: It's easy to make adjustments or reallocations after a transaction has been posted, and easy to make the adjustment when looking at a posted transaction. > > **Cons**: There aren't many features to customize the reports. For example, you can't really look up transactions for more than 1 fiscal year at a time, except in a few places (e.g. aging reports can look at more than 1 year but not the general ledger). The forecast report doesn't give many useful details but there are no customizing features at all. It would be great to if the project financials had more customization options. > > I hadn't used this software in a long while, but it was easy to get familiarized with it again, and I think that it's an easy software for new accounting software users to navigate. There are a lot of wish list features that would be nice to have. ----- ### "Could do better" — 4.0/5 > **Isabel** | *June 19, 2026* | Hospitality | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: Reporting, I love the report, and that errors are easy to track due to the level of detail we can access > > **Cons**: I don't like customer service, since it takes long and invoicing could improve by letting adding more information or the actual expenses invoice into the entry as QuickBooks does. > > I have been using Sage for about 15 year, so I really know your product. Overall my experiences has been good and I feel really comfortable using this software. ----- ### "best ever, but with some rare glitches" — 5.0/5 > **Marie** | *June 19, 2026* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: It tracks everything I so that I am above reproach and was recommended to me by an accountant. I find it logical and easy to use. > > **Cons**: strange glitches, like when my bank reconciliation was off because the program refused to show some entries and currently it will not generate general journal reports > > It has been excellent, I have tailored it to the church where I am working and am able to produce tax receipts using its integration with excel. ----- ### "Better then it used to be." — 3.0/5 > **Clau** | *June 25, 2026* | Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like that I do not have to do a whole adjusting entry. It does a good back up. I find entering A/R really easy to do. > > **Cons**: I find the payroll hard. It will not let you save and come back to it. A/P when viewing reports for R \& M will not let you see the description. > > Better then it used to be to talk with someone for help. I find it could with reconcilliation. Do not care for the payroll part. It won't let you save and come back to it. ----- Page: 1 / 26\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ca/software/174753/sage-50cloud?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ca/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
