Sage 200 Versions
Released by Sage in the 1980’s as Sovereign, this ground-breaking character (DOS) based software set the benchmark for accounting systems in the UK. Moving forwards the software then progressed through Line 100 versions up to v7.6, before being re-created for ‘Windows’ in Line 100 versions 8. As the software developed further it was re-named again to Sage MMS (versions 1.0 to 2.3), then underwent a technical update introducing Microsoft SQL Server as its database, this version being Sage MMS version 3.0.
Beyond Line 100 and MMS, the software was finally renamed Sage 200 and the current version is called Summer 2019.
