Why businesses pick Spheyas
Unlimited users, always
Sage Accounting Start supports one user. Standard starts at two and stops at five, with each extra person USD3.08 a month. On Spheyas everyone who touches the books gets a login, on every plan including Free.
A free plan, not a countdown
Sage gives you 30 days, then USD12.33 a month. Spheyas Free stays free: 20 finalized documents a month, full accounting and the customer portal, with no card asked for.
A second set of books costs nothing
Sage includes one company and charges USD16.50 a month for each one after it. On Spheyas you can create as many organizations as you need and each starts on Free — and Premium adds unlimited branches for $29 a month.
When Sage is the better choice
Spheyas isn't right for everyone. Stay where you are if any of this describes you.
- You need automatic bank reconciliation — Sage Standard does it and Spheyas does not do it at all.
- You need VAT returns calculated and filed, or other statutory submissions handled in the product.
- You want inventory, time tracking, a debtors manager or digital receipt capture — Sage sells all four.
- Your accountant works in Sage, or you want an established vendor with a large advisor network behind you.
Spheyas is a young product in early access with a deliberately narrower feature set. If bank reconciliation or VAT filing is why you are shopping, Sage is the better fit today — we would rather say so than have you switch and find out.
Try it on your own books
The free plan doesn't expire and never asks for a card. Paid plans carry a 30-day money-back guarantee on your first payment.
