    Chose Sage Intacct
    Many systems are either underpowered for what you need (QBO and FreshBooks) or way to much for a mid-market enterprise such as netsuite or oracle. Sage Intacct fits nicely in the middle, providing what you need as you grow.

    Chose Sage Intacct
    I like to tell people that Sage Intacct is similar to Netsuite in its ease of use (quite user friendly and easy to adopt) and significantly easier than SAP’s ERP system. It is also leaps and bounds better and more comprehensive than Quickbooks.

    Chose Sage Intacct
    Sage Intacct was both the most powerful and most flexible system we evaluated. The customization capabilities inherent to the system without paying significantly more for special coding made it an easy choice.

    We liked their integrations better with the other programs we use.

    Chose Sage Intacct
    We still use BILL and Expensify to sync into Sage Intacct. The other accounting systems were not as strong on the multi-entity consolidation setup so Sage Intacct had made it easier for us overall, in terms of processes, closing schedule, and management.

    Chose Sage Intacct
    I think Sage Intacct is perfect for a medium sized business. It is more robust than QuickBooks Online, which is great for small businesses. It is less complicated and more user friendly than both PeopleSoft and NetSuite, which are better suited to large organizations.

    Sage is head and shoulders above any Quickbooks iteration and comparable to NetSuite. The differences are likely personal preference between Sage Intacct and NetSuite, my leaning is toward NetSuite but largely due to how comfortable I was with their system. Our business used …

    Sage Intacct is better than Xero, Quickbooks, and SAP. While Netsuite has more customization options it is harder to learn quickly. For large teams Sage Intacct is the way to go. NetSuite is great but without a coach to walk the team through where to go and how to setup it can …

    With a medium-sized company, Quickbooks wasn't robust or as customizable for our needs. Similarly, Sage 50 (Peachtree) was unable to handle dimensions and detailed reporting like Sage Intacct. We currently use Square POS, but record all financial data into Sage Intacct, which …

    It is well-suited for nonprofit accounting with its ability to track expenses and revenues by both department and funding source. It is easy to set up vendors and customers for invoices and bill payments. It is less appropriate for proper budget management and purchasing with multiple approvers, particularly when edits are required.

    • Custom, real-time financial reporting. I am able to streamline my reporting to pull in various account groups and calculations which save me time from having to do it in Excel.
    • Out of the box standard reports for clients who don't require as custom of reporting or even as a great starting point to build out reports.
    • Integrations with other platforms, such as Airbase, various banks, Rippling, etc.
    • The dashboard module is extremely helpful in my monthly review of various entities.

    • Downloading bill register reports for all the entities at the top level would be helpful.
    • An increase in the Time frame of the Auto-Log out feature for security will be helpful.
    • I think there is some room in the automation part that can be improved.

    The ease of use as a seasoned user is wonderful; however, new users struggle to adapt to the program efficiently. Better training videos--all in one location--would be beneficial. The use of a "sandbox" environment is a great tool for new employees or for the fiscal department to test certain journal entries or other transactions to verify accuracy of data.

    As fas as integration is concerned I don't feel this slows Sage Intacct down at all. However, sometimes I do feel it takes some larger reports more time to load due to all the detail. As well as, I "move very fast" in my motions so sometimes I double click on fuctions too quickly and the system seems to think that I have a duplicate request.

    The free training is very minimal. For what we pay for the service, I would like more training. We end up training new users in-house because the provided free training is not nearly comprehensive enough. That being said, the training provided, for the material covered, was adequate and relevant for the given topics.

    As a CPA in public accounting, I was exposed to many systems. I was in on the ground floor with the implementation of NetSuite for a client; it was clunky, the reporting was ugly, and it wasn’t user friendly. Sage Intacct is a great option for mid-size organizations who have outgrown Quickbooks.
