The 2015 line of Sage 50 Accounting software is here. Sage has simplified their product line to include four products: Pro Accounting, Premium Accounting, Quantum Accounting, and a new Sage 50 subscription service.
Peachtree (Sage 50) 2015 new features and changes are:
PRODUCT LINEUP CHANGES
• The Complete edition is being retired and all Complete users will be upgraded to Sage 50 Premium when they install version 2015.
• Construction, Distribution, Manufacturing, and Nonprofit editions of Sage 50 Premium are also being retired. These users will be upgraded to Sage 50 Quantum when they install version 2015.
• More user options will be added. Instead of just 1,3, or 5 user options, Sage 50 Premium customers will now be able to choose the exact number of users they need: 1, 2, 3, 4,or 5 users. Quantum users will have those same options, as well as the 10, 15, 20, 30 and 40 user options that were already available.
• New Monthly Subscription option is being offered for Business Care in addition to the current annual plan. The annual plan still gives you a perpetual license to use the software.
• Sage 50 Intelligence Reporting interface and usability updates – In the Sage 50 Intelligence Reporting Report Manager, the old menus and buttons have been replaced with a more modern, easy to read ribbon, in the style of Microsoft Office.

COMPATIBILITY UPDATES
• Microsoft Office 2013 is now supported. Support for Microsoft Office 2003 has been discontinued.
• Windows server 2012 is now supported.
• Windows XP is no longer supported. This makes sense since Microsoft will be ending support for XP on April 8th.

DISCONTINUED FEATURES
• CRYSTAL REPORTS – Previously, Premium and Quantum included a full copy of Crystal Reports for designing reports and a run-time version was included for viewing reports written in Crystal. Since users now have access to Sage 50 Intelligence Reporting, Crystal Reports is no longer included and it has been removed from the Reports menu. If you are using Crystal Reports, don’t panic. Your current version of Crystal will continue to work, you will just have to run your reports from Crystal instead of from Sage 50.
• UPS INTEGRATION – The integration with UPS has been discontinued. Sage is recommending ShipRush or ShipGear for users who need UPS or FedEx integration. Both of them would be worth a look for those of you who never used the built-in UPS integration because of its lack of features.
• Sage 50 FAS Tax Service – Like the UPS integration, this will affect very few users. For users that need this functionality Sage is recommending Sage Fixed Assets – Lite Depreciation for Sage 50.
