The Sage Group plc is a British software company based in Newcastle upon Tyne, England. It makes accounting, financial management, payroll and HR software for small and mid-sized businesses. Sage was founded in 1981 by David Goldman, Paul Muller and Graham Wylie, first to build estimating and accounting software for small firms. It is listed on the London Stock Exchange and is part of the FTSE 100 index.

The products listed on appadvisor.in cover different sizes of business. Sage 50 is desktop and hybrid accounting software for small businesses. Sage Intacct is a cloud financial management system for growing mid-market companies. Sage HR covers people management for small firms, and Sage Construction serves contractors.

Several products that are popular in the UK and US, such as Sage 50 and Sage HR, are built mainly around those countries' tax and payroll rules.
