Frustrated with Sage 50?
Business Central solves the problem
Many businesses are finding limitations with Sage 50c accounts software and are looking for a better solution to help them work more efficiently as they grow. Strident has partnered with Bam Boom Cloud, also a Microsoft Partner, to provide customers with implementation, management and support of Business Central, Microsoft's impressive business management software that not only replaces Sage 50c but enables your business to do much more.
Business Central integrates with the full Microsoft suite, so you can create invoices directly from Outlook, pull data from Excel, drive automation with Power Apps through Teams, and much more.
What is Business Central and why is it better than Sage 50?
Business Central provides capabilities beyond accounting, ranging from contact management and job costing through to inventory and workflow management. It runs in Microsoft's Azure cloud, a powerful scalable platform that offers seamless integration with Office 365, including Outlook, Teams, Excel etc. Business Central works closely with the other Microsoft Dynamics 365 apps and the latest technologies for insight and automation, including Power Apps, Power Automate and Power BI.
Although Sage 50c and Business Central are solutions for SMBs, the two are very different. Sage 50c is a legacy system designed to help manage accounts, with the focus on purchase and sales ledgers and reconciling bank accounts. Business Central is a complete end-to-end business management solution, designed for SMBs with 1-250 employees and caters for all the challenges a business may face when growing.
Fully future-proofed with free updates, Business Central is now available under an affordable per-user, per-month price plan. Click here to see our comparison table of Business Central and Sage 50 features.
