Propose that Sage Accounting develop and distribute their software in MSI format to simplify and streamline the update process for users.

Distributing Sage 50 Accounting Canada/ALL software in MSI (Microsoft Installer) format would significantly enhance the installation and updating experience for users. MSI packages offer a standardized method of deployment, allowing for easy mass distribution through common systems management solutions like Microsoft's SCCM (System Center Configuration Manager) or Group Policy. This format supports automated, silent installations without user intervention, which is particularly beneficial for large organizations managing numerous installations across multiple systems. Transitioning to MSI distribution can ultimately save time and reduce support costs for its users.

    Definitely agree. We teach Sage 50 at our business school, and manually installing it on 40 computers every single year is a massive time waste.
