Suggested approach to running Sage Payroll on a Mac?

SOLVED

I have a customer who is using Sage Payroll software running under Windows 10 and the Parallels software on a Mac (to run WIN10 alongside macOS) but the performance is poor, so considering the following:

1) Potentially purchase a low cost laptop running Windows 10 and transfer Sage Payroll and data to this?

2) Use BootCamp on a Mac and create a new dedicated Windows 10 boot-up capability and perform the necessary software and data migration?

3) Move over to the Sage Cloud Payroll solution and upload existing data to this, and just use a browser-based connection instead?

Interested to know peoples thoughts on this...?

    Hi Paul,

    Thanks for using Sage City.

    We recommend to install a Microsoft Windows operating system via Apple's Boot Camp utility, which you can then install Sage 50 / 50cloud Payroll onto. You can find info on this here.

    You can also refer to this guide for full details on running Sage software on an Apple Mac with Boot Camp.
