Quickbooks or SAGE - which do you recommend for small businesses/charities?

[Enid]

Our poor administrator is struggling with Quickbooks (being taught to her by dragon of a treasurer). I think she needs to go on a proper financial package training course but there is nothing around for Quickbooks, only SAGE. We are a small business/charity.

Finance really isn't my bag so I dont know which package would be best - any ideas?

Never got on with quickbooks. I use Sage reluctantly, there really isn't any choice out there.

oh come on I know its boring (cod you are not allowed to post)

instant x posting! thanks triceratops

I use quickbooks (apart from today when I have done f all) and I find it easy. Used Sage eons ago so can't remember.

Haven't been on a course though, someone must do them surely?

How about MYOB (mind you own business). I found that very straight forwards and easy to use.

I have only glimpsed at Sage and that was enough to put me off ever trying it. Never tried quick books.

quickbooks - can't quite remeber how to use it - that moyb one is ok, sage is a bit complicated - can be fine once u know ur way around, tas books is the simpler version of sage.

I used SAGE in the past it easy once you get used to it, plus there are lots of training courses on it

Used to work for charities and they always used Sage.

I would always choose Sage, very easy once you get going plus plenty of support. Expensive if you use it for payroll though (have to buy the updates.)
