Sage Accpac ePOS Scores Five Out of Five

It’s official: for the second year in a row, Sage Accpac ePOS has achieved top honors in The CPA Technology Advisor annual point-of-sale software comparison review! Sage Accpac ePOS earned an overall ranking of five out of five stars, and was also awarded a five-star ranking in five out of the six review categories: Modules/Scalability, Features/Functionality, Integration, Tracking/Reports, and Relative Value. The complete review of 10 point-of-sale systems is published in the November issue of The CPA Technology Advisor and is also posted to www.cpatechnologyadisor.com

  • Because it’s browser-based, system navigation and transaction processing are as simple as navigating through a standard Web interface.
  • Sage Accpac ePOS integrates with Sage Accpac ERP to give you complete front-office/back-office financial processing capability.
  • Sage Accpac ePOS is a sophisticated point-of-sale program that is suitable for both single-user and multi-user retailers with multiple locations.
