Top 3 Reasons to Switch from Sage 50, QuickBooks, Xero and others

Most of our clients who have invested in SAP Business One have been former users of small business accounting software such as Sage 50, Intuit QuickBooks and others.

Their reasons for seeking to move away from these systems are many and various. But principal amongst them was a feeling their business had outgrown them.

Do any of the following strike a chord with you?

1. Small Business Accounting Software is not ERP

Your company has been using small business accounting software for years and it works fine, up to a point. But what about the rest of your company? What about Sales? HR? Production? Stores? And what about your service engineers?

And each time you want to add these features, your supplier either can't help you or says "You'll need another module... and you'll have to pay for it... and we may have to do some work to integrate it with your accounts system."

If your company needs something more that just an accounting system, you should consider moving to made for purpose ERP software.

2. Poor Integration

One consequence of all those spreadsheets and systems you use to run your business is they don't talk to each other. You spend too long manually collating data in Excel. And to make matters worse, small business accounting software lacks flexibility to provide the level of detailed information you need to run your business.

3. It is not scalable

Sage 50 / QuickBooks / Xero was really good when all you needed was a basic accounting system. These days things are not so simple. Your company is bigger... there are more people... they may work remotely, in new locations. Perhaps your company trades internationally?

Companies are looking for systems that support their plans for growing their business. A phrase we often hear is "robust". They are looking for a more robust system, where performance does not degrade as the number of users and transactions grows.
