Accessing certain fields across tables was a little wonky.
Unavailability of customer support team when you contact them.

Sage Intacct makes all of our financial processes easier and less time-consuming. It has a very helpful reports module. Sage Intacct provides high security for our data thus making it a very secure application for financial management.
It is being used for multiple departments. Treasury, accounting, and inventory. We use it for entering payables and managing finances. It helps us keep track of all the cash flow for the company.
Pros
It is easy to use and very straightforward. I felt like I didn't need any instruction on how to use it, it came naturally because of the layout and specific features.
It made it possible for our company to go remote. We are able to attach invoices digitally with Intacct. Thankfully we had switched to Intacct before the pandemic hit, so we able to work from home.

In my case, Sage made it possible for our department to go paperless, which is great for the environment and great for the flexibility of working from home. It made it so all of our files could digitally be attached to the entries themselves. We now have access to files without having to leave our desks or rummaging through stacks of paper.

Sage Intacct is used by my organization's accounting team to manage general ledgers, accounts payable, accounts receivable, as well as other functions. It is the main piece of accounting software we use for most things. We also use it to keep a database of company shareholders to facilitate easier dividends disbursement.
Pros
The interface is very intuitive and easy to pick up even for someone inexperienced with accounting software.
There's a wealth of documentation and lessons that new users can use to get up to speed quickly.
It is possible to generate many kinds of reports that help with processes and general upkeep.
Cons
More streamlined data entry; there's always room for improvement but I'd particularly like to see more capability for keyboard-only data input.
More fine-tuned filtering options for custom views and reports.
More customizability at the user level to improve efficiency.
Likelihood to Recommend
Sage Intacct is the best accounting software I've used in my short career. The interface is user-friendly and helps keep things from becoming too intimidating for someone new to the job. I believe even non-accounting personnel can pick up Sage Intacct easily, and the online nature of the software lets them use it anywhere.

We are using it as our core ERP/accounting solution throughout the entire company. It replaced QuickBooks, which we had used when we first started the business. We will ultimately integrate Salesforce.com (our front-end solution) with Intacct. We are also in the process of using a well regarded Intacct VAR to customize Intacct for our unique business space.
Pros
Ease of use-extremely intuitive & on-line help is very useful
Adaptability with Other Systems - rather than trying to be a one-stop shop ERP with every module/system it is built to integrate with best in class systems
Ease of Customization - allows for simple customization (e.g. field names) that aren't messed up nor require testing with upgrades; to more enhanced/involved platform customization
True Cloud-based/SaaS Solution - it was never an on-premise solution that had to be adapted to the cloud, it has always been a cloud-based solution and when using the system this is very evident when compared to other solutions that have later launched a cloud-based solution
*Upgrades are seamless and relevant
*Pricing is competitive and thus far haven't turned into a typical Tier 1 system in terms of high single digit annual price increases (hopefully they never will as this makes it much more appealing to the small/mid sized companies which will organically increase Intacct's revenues through their employee/user growth)
Cons
Very difficult to find programmers/developers experienced in this system (hopefully it will come with time and their continued growth)
Customer service is just marginal- we don't pay for the enhanced service so that may be really good. Fortunately, it is not very often needed (the system is so intuitive and online help resources are great).

It is such an easy to use system that enables us, as a smaller start-up company, to have a great foundation as we continue to grow. Intacct is a fantastic core system to build all of your company's technology solutions around, whether [you] are a small start-up, middle market or larger established multi-national company.
Every department in our organization uses Sage Intacct to handle multi-entity and inter-company transactions.
Pros
Very intuitive and easy to use
The dashboard looks great
Provides a high level of detail available and drill down capabilities.
Cons
Need to open a ticket before you can talk to customer service. The you get an email requesting our log in information before we can get any help.
Reports are cumbersome to create. Feels like some obvious reporting capability either isn't available, or maybe it cost more. I'd like to pull up a report regarding expense reports. For example, how much did Joe Smith spend on cell phone bills.
If there is a way to see this, I am not sure how to do it. But also along the line of expense report Reports - I'd like to make sure that Joe Smith did not charge us for his July cell bill twice. I only know how to do this by manually checking each report.

For the most part it is very easy to use. For example I can enter 8/3, and it automatically sets the date to the current year. The date shortcuts are easy and helpful.

It is being used across the whole organization. It addresses purchasing, COGS, reporting visibility and cash flow. It is central to tracking customer requirements and pricing schedules.
Pros
Allows the tracking of dimensions
Uploading large amounts of data
Cons
Custom reporting data that has hit the GL alongside info that is being tracked
Splitting and tracking purchase order dollar amounts for a non-inventory system
Likelihood to Recommend
I feel like its ability to track dollar amounts for non-GL hitting transactions leaves something to be desired. This is an issue in project tracking. It does well with large uploads if you follow the rules.
