Set up #Sage on a remote #server
If you have multiple users on Sage, who are not on the same network – i.e. perhaps working from home. Then you will want to move the sage data to a remote server, so that all users can access the same sage data.
- Rent a WINDOWS server. a VPS should do, OVH do one for £9/month
- Set up an VPN to the windows server. Not so easy, glossing over this point
- Close Sage, and copy the Company.000 folder to the server, and share it with a network share
- Ensure you can see this folder from Windows explorer with \\[Server]\[Share]\Company.000
- Now, install the Sage Data Services software on the server. You can download this as part of the trial software from Sage, or just here
- Find the COMPANY file on your local machine, and open it in notepad, and change the C:\programdata\…\Company.000 file to \\[Server]\[Share]\Company.000
- Re-open Sage
