This week in Los Angles, Sage is hosting a North America-wide
conversation about the success of small and mid-sized businesses, the
challenges they face and how Sage can help them grow and thrive. A
number of announcements were released on day 1 of the summit. These
include the following:
Sage North America and Moneris Solutions Corporation,
Canada’s largest credit and debit card processor, announced a strategic
alliance to help Canadian businesses streamline their payment
processes, freeing up precious time to focus on what they do best:
growing their business. Sage and Moneris will deliver an integrated
payment solution that will seamlessly connect Sage accounting and
enterprise resource planning (ERP) applications, such as Sage 50
Accounting–Canadian Edition and Sage 300 ERP, to payment processing
technology from Moneris. The new integrated solution will benefit from
Moneris’ secure payment solutions, which help merchants minimise direct
access to card data.
Sage North America announced continued focus on providing
cloud-delivered user experiences to small and medium-sized businesses
through close collaboration with Microsoft Corp.
This collaboration builds on a number of years of innovation and close
ties between the two organisations. Sage has already been working in
collaboration with Microsoft to bring innovative solutions to small and
medium-sized businesses on a global basis, including Sage 300 Online,
Sage 100 Online and Sage Construction and Real Estate Solutions in North
America. A key example of the joint innovation that is in development
is the interoperation of the Microsoft Cortana personal digital
assistant and Sage 100, which was recently spotlighted at the Microsoft
Worldwide Partner Conference, and will be showcased at Sage Summit. Sage
Summit will focus on creating a dialogue for small and medium-sized
business owners, to address critical issues like customer acquisition
and retention, growing sales and maximizing profit margins.
With the number of Canadian small businesses consistently growing,
Sage North America announced key strategic partnerships with several
leading Canadian brands as part of its ongoing commitment to support
small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) in Canada. Sage has engaged two
leading female entrepreneur groups in the country: Women in Biz Network and Mompreneur.
Sage will be an active contributor to the conversation among these two
socially and digitally active networks by providing thought leadership
content to their members and being a valuable supporter of this growing
group of female entrepreneurs. Sage has also partnered with Canada
Post’s VentureOne and MasterCard Canada’s Easy Savings
programs, both of which offer small businesses access to a host of
solutions to help them grow their business while keeping their costs
down. Sage 50 Accounting–Canadian Edition and Sage One
Accounting–Canadian Edition are included in the suite of small business
accounting solutions available to Canada Post VentureOne™ and MasterCard
Canada Easy Savings members.
