Manage your accounts via a remote server: a simple and practical solution
Today, 19% of European companies use this solution, and of these 46% use accounting solutions.
It has never been easier to run your business from a computer, mobile or tablet.
Covid-19 as an accelerator of this trend
For a year, working methods have evolved at high speed, with the rise of digital and collaborative platforms and the democratization of teleworking.
The recent health crisis has accelerated the dematerialization of accounting procedures.
It also showed that the vast majority of them could be carried out remotely, without loss of efficiency.
Save time thanks to the Cloud
Today, managers of small and medium-sized businesses no longer want to spend so much time on accounting and financial procedures.
Business leaders can now submit their invoices, view their payments or file their tax returns whenever they want.
Achieve the zero-paper goal
The desire to reduce paper consumption is tending to become the norm from an environmental and legal point of view.
Article 153 of the 2020 finance law requires public bodies to send their invoices in electronic form since January 1, 2020. This obligation will concern invoices sent between professionals from 2023. In 2025, all documents must be sent electronically.
According to Ademe, an employee uses an average of 70 kilos of paper per year, which amounts to releasing 25 kilos of CO2 equivalent into the atmosphere.
Sage Business Cloud Accounting helps reduce this carbon footprint by digitizing invoices and accounting documents.

With a single platform like Sage Business Cloud Accounting, business leaders no longer need to constantly change software to access their company's accounting records and data.
The Cloud allows quick access to the various documents thanks to a simple Internet browser.
The company's management and accounting are monitored in real time thanks to the centralization of accounting documents.
Increased efficiency thanks to automated tasks
Automating administrative tasks frees users from IT constraints.
Users retain control of their data, but the interaction between the various departments of the company is easier.
Reducing manual data entry limits the risk of error and secures cash flow.
Automation mainly concerns low added value and / or redundant tasks, which waste time on a daily basis: issuing invoices, reminding customers, processing VAT, etc.
Online management secures your data
The more companies opt for online accounting solutions, the more they wonder about their security. Originally, security protocols were very vulnerable to hacking or the theft of credentials. By mobilizing internal and external actors, these flaws can be corrected. The objective: to create a secure environment for companies concerned with preserving their data.
Security protocols on a remote server are very similar to those in an internal IT environment.
The efficiency and periodicity of the backup system are particularly decisive in both cases.
Data hosted in storage centers is backed up daily and based in secure premises.
They are also encoded, which means that only those responsible for this data have access to them.
A partner in business agility
The cloud is establishing itself as a solution of the future in terms of accounting and represents a real lever for digital transformation.
With players moving more and more towards a strategy focused on online solutions, the need for trusted partners is a crucial issue.
Their role, like Sage Business Cloud, will be twofold:
Help professionals increase their profitability
Support them so that they positively apprehend future challenges (increase in teleworking, “virtualized” offices, shift towards a “cloud first” culture)
More and more companies are realizing the importance of agility.
This ability to quickly adapt to its environment (a certain performance factor, according to a 2017 study) makes the Cloud a key element of business success.
