[Canada] Sage 50 Cloud Hosting Inquiry
Hi everyone,
I’m planning to transition everything to the cloud so I can work from any computer. Since I recently switched to a Mac for personal use and really enjoy it, I’m considering using one for my business too.
I’m a big fan of the Sage 50 desktop version, but its Windows-only availability is proving to be a challenge. I’ve experimented with QuickBooks Online, Xero, and Sage’s online version (which I found quite unsatisfactory), but none have matched the user-friendliness of Sage 50 desktop.
I would prefer to stick with Sage, and I’m contemplating getting it cloud-hosted.
I’ve noticed several companies offer this service, and I’d appreciate any recommendations on which one to choose. I’m looking for something cost-effective, straightforward, secure, reliable with good uptime, and fully compatible with Sage 50 Canada.
Additionally, I’m using Intuit Profile for my tax needs, so if anyone has suggestions for a cloud solution for that as well, I’d love to hear them!
Thanks in advance!
