Sage announced the Canadian release of Sage Payroll, which integrates accounting, payroll and HR functions into a single unified platform with Sage Accounting. The new, cloud-first solution from Sage is uniquely positioned to enable small businesses, HR and accounting teams, to manage payroll and employee data in one platform with employee self-serve features, to help their business flow. Delivering on its promise of continuous improvement and innovation, Sage has responded to customer needs to deliver a cloud payroll experience that helps solve today's most pressing business challenges.

With Sage Payroll, small business owners can pay their employees anytime and anywhere, with the platform automatically calculating the value of each employee's individual payment based on their hourly pay or salary. Rather than forcing small businesses and their accounting and HR teams to juggle between multiple solutions and chase after employee data, Sage Payroll centralizes employee records and automates time-consuming HR processes with ease. This helps to minimize time-wasting, manual work and human error mistakes while empowering small businesses to focus on what matters most their people and their customers.

And because Sage Payroll is integrated with Sage Accounting, business owners and their accounting staff need not worry about manually syncing payroll and accounting, saving them both time and effort. The software is also CRA Compliant and aligned with changing tax legislation. Sage Payroll is designed to meet the administrative needs of Canadian small businesses.

As a business grows from a sole proprietorship to a thriving company with hundreds of employees and performance targets, Sage can provide the right add-ons to accommodate every stage of their business growth.
