What is the Difference Between Sage on-premise and Sage Cloud.
Essentially, the difference between Sage on-premise and Sage Cloud accounting software is where the accounts data and software reside. Sage Cloud accounting software is hosted at one of Sage’s datacentres servers whereas Sage on-premise software is installed locally on your own business servers and computers.
Sage has many different accounting software, payroll and HR products worldwide and each product has different deployment options, some of the Sage’s flagship products such as Sage Intacct, Sage 50, Sage X3, Sage 200, Sage Accounting and Sage Payroll have different deployment options.
