Sage 50 is a fantastic entry-level accounting package
However, its simplicity can result in businesses outgrowing Sage 50 and no longer serving their needs effectively
If you have begun to realise that Sage 50 no longer has the scalability you require, that it does not integrate with other platforms well and that you now find yourself living out of Excel, it is time to look towards a new solution.
The simplest way forward is to look at another Sage product. With a few on the market, it can seem like an overwhelming task to gauge which is the best next step. At PKF Smith Cooper Systems, we take the time to listen and discover what it is you need out of your accounting solution, not what we think you need. From there we can provide you with the best options for you and your business.
To get the process started we have put together a list of Sage 50 upgrade options. These options are Sage solutions that many Sage 50 users have successfully migrated to. While each solution may overlap on certain features like the basic nominal and purchase ledger, they all have a distinct set of capabilities tailored to company size, industry and hosting requirements.
Upgrade options
Upgrading from Sage 50 to Sage 200 Standard, Sage 200 Professional or Sage Intacct.

Migrating your Sage 50 Data
We understand that your data is one of your most valuable business assets and protecting it is our top priority during any upgrade or migration. At PKF Smith Cooper Systems, we’ve helped countless businesses like yours move from Sage 50 to Sage 200 with confidence and minimal disruption.
Whether you're looking for a straightforward migration or want to take the opportunity to tidy up your data, we’ve got you covered.
Deployment Options
Sage 200 is available to be installed on-premise in the traditional way, or it can be operated in the cloud.
There is no right or wrong answer as to whether a cloud deployment is the right way to go. This is subjective to your company’s cloud policy, software requirements and the quality of your internet connection.
PKF Smith Cooper Systems can go through all the options with you and make a mutual decision as to the best way forward.
Payment Options
Sage 200 is sold on a subscription basis, and there has never been more options with how to finance your system implementation, regardless of how you choose to deploy the system. Please see out pricing page for more information.
Your willingness to show us how to sort problems, rather than just magically doing them in the background, is exactly what attracted me to moving over to [PKF] Smith Cooper. It does feel like we have a partner, rather than just a vendor, in this process.
