Sage 50 to QuickBooks Conversion
Our Sage 50 to QuickBooks conversion moves your Peachtree/Sage 50 company — chart of accounts, customers, vendors, inventory items and full transaction history — into QuickBooks Online or QuickBooks Desktop, reconciled to the cent. Ideal for firms tired of Sage 50's per-seat licensing and dated interface.

Why switch
Why firms leave Sage 50
Sage 50 is solid, but it shows its age. Here is what we hear most from firms switching.
Rising subscription & per-seat fees
Sage 50's renewal pricing climbs every year, and each user costs extra. QuickBooks Online's tiered plans are usually cheaper for small teams.
No true cloud access
Sage 50 is desktop-bound or bolted to a hosting add-on. QuickBooks Online runs in any browser, which your accountant will thank you for.
Thin app ecosystem
QuickBooks connects to hundreds of apps for payments, payroll and inventory. Sage 50's integrations are comparatively limited.

The process
How a conversion runs
Every job follows the same disciplined path — you always know what happens next.
Free scoping review
You send a backup or read-only access. We tell you exactly what will convert, what won't, and how clean your data is — before any money changes hands.
Fixed-price quote in 24 hours
One written price for the whole job. No hourly meter, no surprise change orders. You approve before we start.
Data extraction
We pull your full ledger — chart of accounts, customers, vendors, items, open balances and transaction history — from your current system.
Mapping & chart of accounts
We map every account, tax code and item to the target system's structure so reports keep meaning the same thing they did before.
Conversion & rebuild
We rebuild the file in the destination software, bringing history across rather than just opening balances, so prior-year comparisons still work.
Reconciliation to the cent
We reconcile the trial balance, A/R and A/P in the new system against your old one. The numbers tie out, or we don't hand it over.
Handover & support
You get a reconciled file, a short walkthrough, and 30 days of email support to answer questions as your team settles in.

Questions, considered
Sage 50 to QuickBooks FAQs
Do you support old Peachtree files?
Yes. Sage 50 was Peachtree, and we convert files going back many versions. Older releases sometimes need an interim upgrade step, which we handle.
Online or Desktop — which QuickBooks should we pick?
It depends on inventory needs, user count and whether you want cloud access. We give a recommendation in the free scoping review at no cost.
Will my inventory quantities and costs come across?
Yes. Item lists, quantities on hand and average/standard costs are mapped so your inventory valuation matches on day one.
How long does a Sage 50 conversion take?
A typical single-company file is ready in a few business days once we have your backup. Larger or multi-year files take a little longer; the quote states the timeline.
