Do you want to calculate your own payroll? You will have to buy a version of peachtree before 2013. You should back up your data on a 2nd or even 3rd computer. Make sure they all have the SAME "sage service pack" (updates that are released several times each year) and, of course, it has to be the same single-user package (same registration #, customer # and serial #......not another one. (Don't lose the registration, serial, customer numbers). I can't speak to multi-user. If you don't buy a new package every 3 years then the parts that need the internet (such as payroll) will stop working. I strongly recommend that you NEVER update a working accounting program in an existing business (unless you totally outgrow the capabilities of the software). How many people have regretted upgrading just for the sake of upgrading. Make all these decisions in advance. There are a thousand things that can go wrong with any accounting program. Keep it simple. Smaller businesses should consider using a different accounting program for inventory and sales and transferring the daily sales totals to peachtree, along with inventory figures (this is for people who are not religious about inventory and use the 'guesstimate' inventory system). Peachtree makes you "close the books" every two years. There are advantages and disadvantages to that. I prefer to start "a new company" every two years and transfer the opening numbers. It is extra work but it has advantages. I prefer to work with accounting software on a computer withOUT internet hooked up. It saves me a lot of heart ache down the road. I am still working with peachtree 2006 on XP and I love it. But I will take any version of peachtree/sage over quickbooks (there are sites dedicated to "I hate quickbooks").
Some nice features, and ability to customize. However, the software is VERY VERY buggy. I constantly get errors with the sync feature. Windows that pop-up to either allow you to fill information or get help suddenly disappear behind other windows. Very annoying. Did not have nearly as many problems with my older version. Would not recommend buying.
