Well it seems that the SaaS offering from Sage has met a premature end. Even given the amount of time to develop this and get it right (and perhaps test it?) before launch it seems to have flopped and quietly disappeared. I commented some time ago that my initial experiences of it were poor which were echoed by other users as well. But it seems a big opportunity to miss with the SaaS bandwagon rolling on and now we have SaaS providers all looking to erode the Sage 50 user-base. I have already done one data migration tool for Kashflow and now I am in discussions with another SaaS provider to do the same for them. Suits me, this is a commercial venture after all and not a Sage fan club! They may have massive market share in that sector but unless action is taken there are lots of hungry wolves snapping at their heels.
