Change in Pricing for Payroll
Customers of Sage 100 (formerly MAS 90) and Sage 300 (formerly Accpac) will see a change in pricing of the U.S. payroll module. Based on newly-structured payroll tiers, customers will pay based on the number of paychecks processed for active employees (as opposed to the former pricing based on a flat module price plus annual maintenance).
Sage feels that the new pricing structure is more fair and consistent because customers now pay only based on the number of employees for whom payroll is processed. For example, a customer with only 10 employees on payroll will no longer pay the same price as a customer with 250 employees.
