EXEC: SAGE 50 INVESTMENTS TO CONTINUE Featured

Sage is committed to the Sage 50 line, according to statements made this week by Walid Abu-Habda, the software company’s chief product and development officer. Speaking during an analyst webcast, the executive was not so clear about support of Sage Accounting.

In answer to an analyst question about those products, Abu-Habda said the company will not force migration to other packages for those applications, or with Sage 100 and 300. As far as Sage 50 goes “We will invest in that and we will grow that platform,” he said. Of course, the kicker is Sage 50 is not one platform—it’s different in Europe, Canada and the United States. On this continent, the Canadian version is the former Simply Accounting and in the U.S., it’s the former Peachtree. He mentioned 50 again specifically but not Sage Accounting. That small business financial cloud application does just does not seem to have made the progress in Europe or on this continent that Sage envisioned. In November 2019, CEO Steve Hare discussed plans for Sage Accounting Pro which was to offer a migration path from Sage 50 but Abu-Habda did not rush to spell out any plans for Sage Accounting.
