Sage Enterprise Solutions will highlight its comprehensive business software suite under the banner of "A Sage product for every business" at this year's Computer Faire.
According to Ashley Ellington, the company's divisional director for Africa, Sage provides customers with fully-integrated, highly-functional and flexible software solutions that deliver tangible benefits from existing and new technologies. This spans everything from manufacturing and production businesses, through to distribution and business service companies.
"Based on open technology standards means that businesses will benefit from the latest high-performance hardware and software platforms and our solutions will interface (and scale) easily with other software, whether desktop or back office applications," he says.
While Sage offers a core financial solution to suit the needs of most businesses, it has made sure that customers are offered end-to-end, Web-enabled software solutions that cover the entire business process, including CRM, financial, distribution and manufacturing, and many more.
"In principle, accounting software packages can be very similar to one another. But different businesses have very different needs, and that's why we have such a broad range of solutions. Catering to the needs of a small upstart with a single owner/manager through to very large operations that have in excess of a 1 000 users, we offer solutions to suit the needs of most businesses.
Sage products for small businesses include Instant Accounting (single user) and Line 50 (for 1-5 users), for growing businesses the Line 100 (4-12 users) and Line 200 (5-25 users), and for larger businesses the Line 500 suite (25-1 000+ users).
"In addition, our Web access and process products enable utilisation of the Sage suite of software via the Internet. Companies can now extend their business processes to collaborate with customers and business partners, and share information with them."
