SAGE 50

Sage 50 Accounting (US) is a business management software subscription-based product published by Sage Group and sold in the United States. It was previously called Peachtree Accounting (U.S.). A conversion to the Peachtree / Sage 50 U.S. data format was made available when Simply Accounting (U.S.) was taken off the market. As of the 2013 edition, the U.S. software is now called Sage 50 (U.S).

Peachtree Accounting was originally sold by a software publisher founded in 1978 by Ben Dyer, Ron Roberts, Steve Mann, and John Hayes. The company was carved out of The Computer SystemCenter, an early Altair dealer founded by Roberts, Mann, Jim Dunion, and Rich Stafford, which Dyer had joined as the manager and where the first software was published in 1977.
