Sage vs Wave——どっちが優秀?
Sageを選ぶべき人: 1981年創業の老舗ブランドから伝統的な会計ソフトが欲しい確立された小規模ビジネス
Waveを選ぶべき人: 「Free Trial」の釣りなしで本当に無料の会計が欲しいソロプレナーや超小規模ビジネス
私たちの見解: Sage for simplicity, Wave for power users.
| Sage | Wave | |
|---|---|---|
| 料金 | No free plan | Sage Accounting Start $10/mo | Free accounting and invoicing | Payroll $20/mo + $6/person |
| 機能 | Cash flow forecasting, Smart invoicing, Tax calculations, Bank reconciliation, Cloud and desktop options | Free invoicing and accounting, Receipt scanning, Financial reports, Bank connections, Payroll services (paid add-on) |
| こんな人に最適 | Established small businesses that want traditional accounting software from a brand that’s been around since 1981 | Solopreneurs and tiny businesses that want genuinely free accounting without the ‘free trial’ bait-and-switch |
| 学習コスト | 普通 | 簡単 |
本当の違い
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Sage stands out with Cash flow forecasting and Smart invoicing. Wave counters with Free invoicing and accounting and Receipt scanning.
Sage's Achilles heel: feels old-school compared to xero and freshbooks — the ux hasn’t fully modernized despite cloud upgrades. Wave's: no inventory tracking, no project costing, no time tracking — you get what you pay for (nothing). Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
結論
If you value cash flow forecasting and 1981年創業の老舗ブランドから伝統的な会計ソフトが欲しい確立された小規模ビジネス, go with Sage. If 「free trial」の釣りなしで本当に無料の会計が欲しいソロプレナーや超小規模ビジネス matters more, Wave is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
