TORONTO, Nov. 30, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sage, (FTSE: SGE), the leader in accounting, financial, HR and payroll technology for small businesses and midsize enterprises, today announces the launch of Sage for Accountants in Canada. Sage for Accountants unifies the experience accounting and bookkeeping practices can enjoy with Sage – effectively elevating their flow to maximize their impact on clients and run a more fulfilling and profitable practice.
“Efficiency plays an important role in a business's success,” shares Mark Hickman, Managing Director in Canada for Sage. “Sage for Accountants gives accountants and bookkeepers the tools and support to effectively improve business flow, profit, and client value.
