Frequently Asked Questions

The primary difference often comes down to payroll and complexity. Sage offers a more robust and deeply integrated South African payroll system, making it a strong choice for businesses with employees. Xero is often praised for its superior user-friendliness and vast international app ecosystem, making it excellent for service-based businesses.
Yes. Platforms like Sage and Xero use enterprise-grade security, including data encryption and multi-factor authentication, that is often more secure than a local server or desktop computer. They invest heavily in protecting your data.
Dext is an application that automates data entry. You simply take a photo of an invoice or receipt with your phone, and Dext uses AI to extract the key information (supplier, date, amount, VAT) and push it directly into your accounting software. It dramatically reduces manual bookkeeping time.
