MS Office or Office 365

SOLVED
Posted By

Hello,

We are considering to purchase Sage50 Cloud Quantum Accounting.

On the pricing page (https://www.sage.com/en-us/products/sage-50cloud/pricing/) close to the bottom reads "Requires a license to Microsoft 365 Business Standard."

The system requirements page (https://support.na.sage.com/selfservice/viewdocument.do?noCount=true&externalId=105584&sliceId=1&noCount=true&isLoadPublishedVer=&docType=kc&docTypeID=DT_SYSTEMREQUIREMENTS_1&stateId=18653&cmd=displayKC&dialogID=932509&ViewedDocsListHelper=com.kanisa.apps.common.BaseViewedDocsListHelperImpl&openedFromSearchResults=true) reads "Microsoft 365 Integration – Requires Microsoft 365 Business Premium or Enterprise Editions".

My questions are:

1. What exactly is "integrated"?

2. Are any of the "integration" features available with locally installed copies of MS Office Professional?

3. Is "integration" required to install or run Sage50 Cloud Quantum Accounting?

Your expert guidance is much appreciated.

    The traditional features like sending reports to Excel, emailing invoices with Outlook, or creating merged documents in Word will work with locally installed MS Office 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, and 2019.

    Some newer features require Office 365 Business Premium because they use OneDrive. Cloud backup and Sage Capture are the two most prominent features that require Office 365. There is also a dashboard and a contact app.

    Except for the features I just listed, you can install and use Sage 50cloud without MS Office or Office 365.
