Moving from Sage 50 to Liquid Accounts - a case study.
Don't just take our word for it - hear it from a happy customer.
Established in 1982, Comtec Presentations have an unrivalled history in providing marketing solutions to an exceptional range of clients. From multinational corporations to political parties, including educational institutions, they have helped arrange the biggest and the best to deliver their messages with clarity, flair and precision.
To support the business in delivering the best possible service and results, Comtec relies upon its business management software to ensure that the finances are under control. For many years, this was done using Sage 50, the perennial desktop accounting package that has been a feature of British businesses for many years.
However, the business felt it was time to move on and modernise their accounting and finance procedures to better match how the team were now working, and Liquid was considered as a Sage 50 replacement.
One of the main drivers of wanting to move to cloud accounting software was the freedom of using the software wherever it was needed, and it not being an on-premise package as Anne, the finance manager, does not attend the office every day and needs to use the software wherever she happens to be at any given time.
Liquid provides her with this, as it is 100% cloud and simply requires an internet connection and a browser to access, with no need to install or register any software.
Critically, they had experienced some data corruption issues with Sage 50, and as it was approaching their new financial year, they wanted a clean start in a fresh new system ready for the start of their new fiscal year.
Changing accounting software is never easy, and there are days when Anne looks back on Sage 50 with some fondness, but the benefits that Liquid provide for a more flexible, variable working life more than make up for any loss of familiarity.
Testimonials
I have just been on my “to do list” and a task remaining was my FIN073 return. This stuff stresses and confuses me as you well know. I logged on, and read my notes and you had already prepared the answers that I needed to input and submit. All done. Painless. Just wanted to let you know how much your help is appreciated.

MyPAYE is a great value for money payroll tool, easy to operate and has many advantages even for the smallest employer. For me as an agent I can easily email pay slips, summaries and statutory reports to my clients and being online I can access it from any pc and therefore I am not tied to being in my office or at my own laptop to view and access the records. The advantage of not having to update the software and backup numerous clients’ records saves me time and there is the ability to personalise the payslip to show my agency.
