Sage Business Cloud Payroll Good for small businesses.

I have enjoyed my experience with Sage because it has made my work much easier with all the features that it offers. My month end close are smooth and quick.

PROS

The four step payroll process which increases my accuracy, Auto Adjustment which is also useful when you make an error on the payslip, the ability it has to produce various accounting reports. I highly recommend it for small businesses.

CONS

The only problem I have is that it is specifically for small businesses.

Reasons for switching to Sage Payroll

Excel made my work tedious and untidy. A single error would usually be a tough fix, reporting was time consuming for me to

SAGE Software, always my first choice.

Sage Payroll is a game changer, if you have never done payroll before Sage Payroll is the way to go. Powerful software that is easy to learn, and with the first-class help desk nothing is ever a problem.

PROS

Sage payroll is a powerful piece of software that is easy to use, value for money, gives you a greater insight into employee costs and makes management easy.

CONS

I have tried to find something I don't like, but to be honest it works really well. It is always updated with any government changes in plenty of time. With every update Sage Payroll just gets better and better.

Reason for choosing Sage Payroll

Better and more powerful software, better value for money. The company has a great reputation.

Payroll Simplified

Sage Business Cloud Payroll handles payroll functions effectively for my company. It also safeguards important documents and provides remote access.

PROS

I like the fact that the free trial is able to secure and make readily acccessbile via the cloud features. Sage Business Cloud Payroll was very easy for me to integrate and use. My company's payroll adminstration has improved by 15%.

CONS

The time it takes their customer service to resolve issues is a bit long. The user interface is not too easy to understand.

Easily the best Payroll program

PROS

I love the fact that you can pretty much do everything in Payroll with this one software, bar a few rare features.

CONS

It can be a little clunky and slow at times. I think Sage really needs to focus on improving product speed and stability.

It's like Marmite! - you either love it or hate it

PROS

I like the summary page, as it highlights things that need doing, for example it lets you know how long you have left to send EPS.

CONS

Before making the move, I used Sage (desktop) for years and if i had to compare both then Sage Business Cloud Payroll lacks the functions that the desktop has and i found that difficult to deal with. However, Sage is improving this and more reports are being added.

Reasons for switching to Sage Payroll

COVID, having the payroll in the cloud made it accessible to others
