Sage One Mobile App Allows Small Business Owners to Work From Anywhere, Improving Customer Service

ATLANTA, GA--(Marketwired - Oct 21, 2014) - Sage North America, a leading provider of business management software and services to small and medium-sized businesses, announced the availability of its Sage One mobile app that will help solopreneurs and small business owners handle accounting, project and invoicing needs on the go, making business life easier. An extension of the Sage One product line, the mobile app was developed as a part of the ongoing commitment Sage has to listening to customer needs.

According to the recent Sage U.S. SMB Survey on Mobile Devices, 70 percent of SMBs said mobile technology had the greatest positive effect on their customer service, and 51 percent personally use a mobile device to access work-related information remotely. Providing mobile access to Sage One allows small business owners to be more responsive to their customers no matter where they are.

The Sage One mobile app gives current Sage One Accounting Standard users the flexibility to conduct business anytime, anywhere. Users may create and send professional invoices to clients, quickly see what invoices are outstanding or overdue, and record payments on the go, helping to keep cash flow steady and avoid downtime while out of the office.1 The app is now available for iPhone® users in the United States and will be made available on other platforms in the future.

"As a recent winner of two K2 Quality Awards, Sage has been recognized for its work to innovate on a mobile strategy that provides the right tools and capabilities to mobile users, and the Sage One mobile app is a great example of that commitment," said Randy Johnston, executive vice president, K2 Enterprises. "Sage is not trying to deliver a whole system on a mobile device, just the information and functionality needed. The automatic synchronization from the mobile application into the core system, in this case, Sage One Accounting Standard, works seamlessly."

Christina Aldan uses Sage One Accounting Standard to make running her business simpler and is eager to get started with the mobile app. "Sage One helps me evaluate the effectiveness of our systems to see where we can improve," said Aldan. "To have the flexibility to work from my mobile device, anytime? Well, that's invaluable; not only to me, but for my clients. The Sage One mobile app will allow me to become more efficient and meet increasing client demands."

Sage One Accounting Standard is available at $14 per month, and Sage One Invoicing is $9 per month. The Sage One mobile app is available to all Sage One users at no cost.1
