Countdown – How Many Workdays Until Sage Retires Abra Suite?
Not much time left
If you’re a Sage Abra Suite user, you know the countdown has begun. Time is running out for Abra Suite and for you to make a decision about your next steps. In June, Sage North America announced plans to retire Sage Abra Suite as of December 28, 2020, ending access to the support center for assistance. That’s 259 business days from today (Dec. 16), but you don’t have that long to do something about it.
Repercussions start sooner
December 28 isn’t the only date to remember. September 1, 2020, will mark the final release of updates for Abra Suite—in just 180 business days. That means no more security and bug fixes, no more tax and legislative updates, no more 2020 W2s or ACA forms. Without a Q4 2020 update, you won’t have the needed information for your 2020 Year-End processes.
December 1, 2020
That’s the date to mark on your calendar—241 business days from now. Your migration from Abra Suite to Sage HRMS must be completed by then. December 2020 tax updates will be for Sage HRMS only.
Start planning NOW
A migration takes time to plan and execute.
Sage has endorsed ONLY ONE tool to move Payroll to Sage HRMS: Automated SQL Migration for Sage Abra Suite (ASM), developed by Delphia Consulting. Using ASM and our proven methodology and ASM experts, we provide a fast (usually 90 days) and smooth transition.
You no longer need to consider whether or not to move off Abra Suite: You know you must! That is a good thing. As is often said, “change” is another word for “opportunity.” Sage HRMS and its many add-ons offer loads of features unavailable in Abra.
