Why Use Zahara?

Real-Time Visibility

View spending in real-time with no time wasted waiting for paper-work.

Purchase Orders

Scrutinise the important purchases and make sure they get approved first. Condition your suppliers to only accept validated purchase requests.

User Friendly

We pride ourselves on keeping Zahara's interface user-friendly to give you the best experience. Anyone who needs access to the system will pick it up in no time.

More Secure

Keep Sage 50 for those who need it, and let the wider team use Zahara for approvals and ordering.

Bespoke Workflows

Create and adapt infinitely customisable multi-step approvals. Choose your own pathways, without any coding or consultancy needed.

OCR Invoice Processing

Incredibly accurate invoice reading without any training. It’s invoice processing in its easiest, but most sophisticated, form yet.

Time Saving

Multiple research institutions, including Ardent Partners, have concluded that companies who automate can process invoices 81% faster than those who don't. With Zahara, we take this a step further. We have made it possible for all four of the key accounts payable components to work smoothly and effectively all in the same app. This both simplifies and hugely speeds up the process, without compromising on functionality or accuracy.

Take Back Control

You can now have control over your costs before you commit to spending. Set strict budgets for particular departments and use multi-step approval workflows to decline, amend, or approve purchase orders. You no longer have to leave your accounts to the mercy of human error. The in-built OCR will automatically read and upload your supplier invoices, you can sit back and watch.

Growth-Focused

Zahara doesn't become redundant as you grow. You can add more users as your team expands, and the system will be able to handle and process invoices where they would normally overwhelm a standard finance team. By taking care of repetitive tasks like keying in invoices, you will be left with more time for financial strategy and planning so you can be ready for whatever life throws at your business.

Watch our Sage 50 explainer video to understand how Zahara works.
How does Zahara Sync with Sage 50?

Zahara connects with Sage 50 using our own SmartSync tool. This on-premise tool must be installed on your PC or server that connects with Sage 50. This is then set to poll for new invoices and can sync key information on a schedule. New suppliers can be originated in Zahara and created in Sage 50 at the time of creating the first invoice.

Does Zahara send the PDF of the invoice to Sage 50?
The PDF of the invoice can be placed in Sage 50's folder structure but we can also put a document link into Sage 50 that takes you to the corresponding invoice in Zahara.
What subscriptions of Sage 50 do I need to integrate with Zahara?
Sage 50's API can be enabled for all versions.
How much does it cost to integrate Zahara with Sage 50?
SmartSync is charged as an extra module. The price depends on the number of Companies you have in Sage and how much data will be synced.
Is Zahara Cloud-based?
Yes 100%. Zahara runs in a web browser so anyone can access it from any device. We also have a mobile app available on both IOS and Android and you can control what access user's have on quite a granular level.
Will I need to change the way I work?
Deploying Zahara is an opportunity to sanity check how you benchmark against similar organisations. We have a lot of Sage 50 customers and we have provided great advice to help them process their invoices faster and with less effort. We have a huge amount of settings that enable you to carry on using Sage 50 the way you like. As an example you may use Departments for Projects. That's ok. We have a tick box for that. It could be you like to put invoices on Dispute first. We may show you a better way that's more efficient. If Zahara is one thing (apart from being friendly) - it's flexible.
