Sage Group PLC are a leading supplier of business management software and services to 5.8 million customers world wide. They deal with a wide range of customers in a large market. They are quite versatile and flexible and can therefore support businesses of all sizes, from small start ups to larger organisations.
They began in 1981 in Newcastle Upon Tyne when the market was in its initial stages of existence. However by 1984 Sage Software had been launched and sales rocketed. By 1989 Sage was listed on the London stock exchange and by 1999 entered the FTSE 100 as well as launching a dedicated Irish division based in Dublin.
Further success was achieved with various acquisitions including DAC Easy and Remote, US companies in the early nineties. In 1994 they acquired Timeslips from the US, Multisoft from the UK, SPA from Spain and Saari from France. Indeed they have continued to acquire companies every year in America and Europe. Their expansion through acquisition has been quite significant and most recently they have acquired Venus Financial Management, Intuit Master Builder and Contractor Anywhere in the US in 2006 and in 2007 Snowdrop Systems and KCS Rightsource.
Sage have not neglected their core product and have continued to develop their customer base by ensuring loyalty through services and upgrades and expanding globally. They have branched into key areas such as those in Asia where demand for their products and services is increasing.
Their shrewd moves have ensured that they are the only UK software company that is consistently every year in the FTSE 100. Sage- a software company with wise moves.
