Sage has rolled out Sage View, which draws financial information from accounting software. It draws data from about any package into all of Sage packages and, what a minute, we've been here before haven't we? The issue is whether the target audience of accountants will use analytical software to serve clients any more than they did in the early 2000s. The last time I wrote about this, in 2009, I noted Thomson's lack of success with Financial Analysis CS module and the death of the CCH Profit Driver, built on the same tool uses it the Sage CFO package.
