Sage One is an accounting and invoicing solution designed for small business owners, entrepreneurs, and freelancers with simple needs and little-to-no accounting experience.
In a November 2013 study, Sage One found that 37% of small businesses use Excel/spreadsheets to track income/expenses and a combined 46% of small businesses manage invoicing through either Excel/spreadsheets, Microsoft Word, or QuickBooks. These statistics show that many small business owners were lacking a simpler alternative designed for their needs.
This is the alternative that Sage One now provides.
Sage One is the solution for small businesses owners who work from home, have little to no staff, minimal accounting experience, and little time to spend managing finances. They need something that’s dead simple and free of functionality they won’t need until they grow more. Sage One provides simple invoicing and income expense tracking services.

79% of Sage One customers have a relationship with an accountant. The goal of the Sage One Accountant Edition is to make it easier for both the accountant and client to work together.
For the client – it makes it easy to share financial data in real-time, without having to print reports or make data backups. For the accountant – the client’s data is accessible in one place. It enables clients to be more organized and methodical about their bookkeeping, which makes preparation for tax time a lot easier
