We have created this FAQ below to help you find out which edition of Sage Simply Accounting 2012 to move to from your existing version.



I have Sage Simply Accounting Basic 2007 or Sage Simply Accounting 2008, which product should I upgrade to?

The upgrade for Sage Simply Accounting Basic 2007 or Sage Simply Accounting 2008 is now Sage Simply Accounting Pro 2012. We have transitioned away from calling any of the products "Basic" because the product just isn't basic anymore. In 2008, we dropped the term "Basic" and since 2009 we have added "Pro" which better reflects the level of accounting and business management tools available in the product. See also, the upgrade paths diagram.


I have Sage Simply Accounting Pro 2007 or earlier, which product should I upgrade up to?

Your upgrade for Sage Simply Accounting Pro 2007 or earlier is either Sage Simply Accounting Premium 2012 or Sage Simply Accounting Enterprise 2012.

Sage Simply Accounting Premium 2012 and Sage Simply Accounting Enterprise 2012 are the only products that support multiple users. Premium supports up to 4 users and Enterprise supports up to 40 users in increments of 51.

If you have multiple users, you should be looking at upgrading to either the Premium or Enterprise product. See also, the upgrade paths diagram


I have Sage Simply Accounting Premium 2008, which product should I upgrade up to?

You should upgrade to Sage Simply Accounting Premium 2012 if you only have 4 or less users1. If you have more than 4 users, then we encourage you to look at Sage Simply Accounting Enterprise. Sage Simply Accounting Premium will support up to 4 users whereas Sage Simply Accounting Enterprise supports up to 40 users1. See also, the upgrade paths diagram.

Is Sage Simply Accounting First Step the same as Basic?

No. The past "Basic" product is now positioned as Sage Simply Accounting Pro because it provides all the tools you need to accelerate the growth of your business.

First Step is our single user entry level accounting software package for entrepreneurs, small or home-based business owners who need to move to a simplified accounting software package.

It provides easy to use tools to track revenues, expenses and tax.


Why are you capping the number of users for Sage Simply Accounting Premium at 41?

Once a business has exceeded the need for 4 users, it should move to Enterprise which comes in comes in increments of 5 for up to 40 users. With Enterprise you get a whole lot more than just licenses. Find out more about Sage Simply Accounting Enterprise.
