Sage launch line 50 Version 12

Sage Line 50 has always been designed with customer needs in mind, but this time Sage has gone that little bit further. They conducted thorough nationwide in the U.K. research involving their customers, business partners and accountants. They have taken into account 8,000 wishes and requests, visited many customers’ businesses, performed surveys and carried out workshops with customer, business partner and accountant user groups. They have used customer requests and comments to make changes that really matter.
