Okay: before it catches on. it is time to squash the word "beautiful" and its derivatives when describing software. Infor's statement is "We build beautiful business applications." Xero's web page says "Our beautiful cloud-based accounting software connects people with the right numbers anytime, anywhere, on any device." Now back to the news. Users are now able to view their Sage Live data offline without a network connection. Although new release is available only in the United Kingdom and Ireland, I assume it will become available in the United States.
