Lifecycle policy We adopt a policy to formalise our procedure of withdrawing support for software versions that are behind the latest release.  What does this mean for me? This doesn't mean that your software stops working. You can still continue to use it, but we'll withdraw support, updates and upgrades in a phased approach.  We'll notify you of the support end date and share available upgrade options.  Why do we do this? It's standard industry practice for technology companies to withdraw support for older versions of software. Every year we invest in research and development to improve our software and services. We do this in line with regular customer feedback and to consider new technology and changes in legislation.  Using the latest software helps us support you better and keeps your business in the future. By focusing on future improvements, we can help you stay ahead.  We’re here to make sure you get the best support possible. Our goal is to connect you with technical experts who know the software inside out, so you get answers fast.    Sage 50 Accounts    TIP: We offer support for Sage 50 Accounts v26.3 and above, where an active subscription and Sage Cover are in place.    For the best experience with features like Remote Data Access, Bank Feeds and Invoice Payments, use the latest Sage 50 Accounts version. It helps everything run smoothly and keeps you up to date.  At times technical updates mean these become unavailable on older versions of the software.    You can find further information at https://www.sage.com/en-gb/legal/terms-and-conditions/product-and-service-terms-and-conditions/   - The Sage Drive service is no longer available in Sage 50 Accounts v26 and below. Instead, use Remote Data Access in Sage 50 Accounts v27 and above.
        TIP: For more information about the lifecycle policy and discuss what's available to help you upgrade, leave your details and we'll be in touch.    Sage 50 Payroll   NOTE: All versions of Sage 50 Payroll below v25 have already completed their lifecycle and no longer qualify for support.    TIP: For more information about the lifecycle policy and discuss what's available to help you upgrade, leave your details and we'll be in touch.
