This is where <a href=\"https:\/\/verito.com\/blog\/all-about-sage-software\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"dofollow\" >Sage software<\/a> attracts their eyes for all-inclusive Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) needs. Being a preeminent accounting software, Sage is used by around six million businesses globally and is a market leader in integrated accounting, payroll, and payment systems. The exclusive <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">features of Sage software<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and the availability of different versions might have caught your attention when you switched to using Sage desktop accounting software.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, the on-premise installation of Sage software has certain limitations regarding application access, security, and work productivity. If you want to take advantage of cloud computing, you can pair the features of this powerful software with that of cloud technology with the help of Sage hosting solutions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>To know better about Sage, you can also read the comparison <a href=\"https:\/\/verito.com\/blog\/what-is-the-difference-between-sage-and-quickbooks\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"dofollow\" >Sage Vs Quickbooks<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Wondering what you should consider when hiring a Sage hosting provider? This blog post will detail various related aspects to assist you in making an informed decision. Let&#8217;s start with understanding the &#8216;why&#8217; behind this decision.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"why-should-you-host-sage-software-on-the-cloud\"><b>Why Should You Host Sage Software on the Cloud?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cloud-hosted Sage software brings a more extensive bundle of benefits than on-premise software installation. The local-hosted Sage version requires you and your team to be physically available in the office and access the software using their dedicated computer system. On the contrary, Sage hosting gives you remote access, freeing you from being confined to a location to work on Sage software. You can access it via your preferred mobile device, laptop, tablet, or smartphone. Here are a <a href=\"https:\/\/verito.com\/blog\/what-to-consider-before-hosting-sage-application-on-the-cloud\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"dofollow\" >Few Things to Know Before Hosting Sage on Cloud<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While remote accessibility is one of the most significant advantages of Sage hosting, you will also benefit from:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Improved data security<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data backups<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Efficient communication between team members<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cost savings and more<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Coming to the important question, you must know <a href=\"https:\/\/verito.com\/blog\/how-to-host-sage-software-on-the-cloud\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"dofollow\" >How to Host The Sage Software on Cloud<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"what-to-consider-while-selecting-a-sage-hosting-provider\"><b>What to Consider While Selecting a Sage Hosting Provider?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Given below are four factors that matter most in hiring a reliable <\/span><b>accounting software hosting provider<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sync with your business needs<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Data Security Features<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Server Uptime Guarantee<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Customer Support\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let&#8217;s get into their details one by one.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3 id=\"sync-with-your-business-needs\"><b>Sync with your business needs<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The first and foremost thing concerning selecting a cloud hosting provider is not their service quality but your business needs. It would take much more time and effort to look around for the best Sage hosting providers, checking what they bring to the table and at what price. But the final selection will still be delayed if you do not know the specific needs of your business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Hence, it makes sense to identify your business requirements and list them before looking for any hosting provider. Once you have the list ready, make a comparison table to clearly see the service quality and features offered by different vendors. This will make it easier for you to select the right one in less time.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3 id=\"data-security-features\"><b>Data security features<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although your business needs will cover security as a cloud hosting benefit, it requires a detailed analysis. This is because you must know how Sage hosting providers ensure the best-in-class security rather than only knowing that they do something in this regard. Irrespective of the size and type of your business, the security of accounting data you host on a cloud server is paramount. In addition, external factors such as cyber security hackers and malware may seriously threaten your business.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is why you should look for security measures deployed, including but not limited to data encryption, multi-factor authentication, firewalls, and intrusion detection systems, to name a few.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3 id=\"server-uptime-guarantee\"><b>Server Uptime Guarantee<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Irrespective of the selection of computing resources (vRAM, storage, or the number of users) with a cloud hosting plan, you will not be able to access hosted Sage software if the server is down. Therefore, to ensure uninterrupted productivity for your business, it is crucial to have round-the-clock access to Sage software and accounting data.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is why you should look for a cloud solution provider with a proven track record of maintaining SLA-backed server uptime of at least 99.99%. This way, there will be less risk of server downtime that may affect your business in the long run.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h3 id=\"customer-support\"><b>Customer Support<\/b><b><br \/>\n<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The next important aspect of selecting a Sage hosting provider is getting customer support whenever needed. Whether you are new to using cloud-hosted Sage software or have done it before, you would agree that technical hosting issues may arise anytime without prior warning. Having a dedicated support team means you can get the required assistance irrespective of day or night.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To get this benefit, select a cloud hosting provider that ensures 24x7x365 customer support to the clients.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>To start with a specific version, you can read <a href=\"https:\/\/verito.com\/blog\/5-things-you-should-know-about-sage-50\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"dofollow\" >Things to Know About Sage 50<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cloud-hosted Sage software is the preferred choice of leading businesses like yours because of its benefits and features.
