Sage Accpac Vista Compatibility Update

You just purchased some new computers with Windows Vista and you're wondering if your Sage software solution is compatible.

Use the chart below to view the Windows Vista comparability for the applications you have installed. Applications will either be:

Vista Compatible – Software operates in the Vista environment without special effort on the part of the user and operates as designed (Support UAC concept)
Vista Capable – Software can operate in the Vista environment with reasonable workarounds that do not overly burden day-to-day operation.

In the case of Vista Capable applications, recommended workarounds are shown in the note section under the application listing. The listing will also show the current compatibility status as well as the estimated timeframe for full compatibility, if known.

If you don't see an application you use or have additional questions, please don't hesitate contact Laura Kasman at 215-702-8155 or lkasman@kastechco.com.
