Our accounting department uses Sage Intacct for a wide variety of ERM functions including general ledger, accounts payable, and bank reconciliation. Intacct also provides us with tools that help address internal controls and allows lighter users a read-only view of our accounting system, which is useful for executive users and auditors alike. Intacct's reporting function is quite robust and allows us to create financials that match our unique needs in the highly regulated insurance industry. Additionally, budgeting and budget reports are pretty intuitive using Intacct's ability to incorporate multiple dimensions. Sage Intacct has provided us with a much more efficient ERM package than our previous solution.
  • Flexibility - Sage Intacct provides us with a wide variety of user-friendly ERM functions.
  • Reporting - Sage Intacct uses several dimensions that, combined with a robust reporting tool, make reports usable . That's a rarity in ERM.
  • Security - Sage Intacct has a security function that is easily customized and allows flexibility for company size when it comes to controls, authorizations, etc.
  • Imaging - Sage Intacct makes it easy to tie transactions to invoices, emails, and any other document you want. This would normally be handled by a separate tool, but Intacct makes attaching images seamless.
  • Vendors - Adding vendors is easy. However, separation of controls is a little sticky in this area. We'd like to be able to restrict our users' ability to add/edit vendors and create payments to them. Vendor approvals would help us mitigate this problem.
  • Corrections - making errors in an ERM system is inevitable. Most of the time Sage Intacct allows us to reverse mistakes, but not everywhere.
  • Interface - most of the UI is smooth and easy to understand. There are a few locations that looks different, which creates a bit of a choppy experience.
I believe Sage Intacct would be able to handle general ledger and other functions for small and large companies alike. I have actually used the product at three employers during my career and the product is very flexible in what it allows a company to do. Companies may run into challenges if they process a large volume of checks as Intacct is not ideal for that kind of volume. The system also does not easily allow for creating flat files that are helpful in creating bank files (such as ACH payments), but it can be done! Sage Intacct does a nice job of reaching out to its customers and trying to improve their product. Their previous solution for fixing routine problems was employment of a community website where users can go to ask for or offer solutions. I found this approach to customer service was not a particularly easy way of finding answers, but since my last time using the product, Sage has added a contact for direct support. These two options together make the customer service approach far more palatable.

We use Sage Intacct for many different functions in our organization. I use it for AP and bank reconciliations most often. It has created significant efficiency in our bank reconciliation process - taking our reconciliation/month end process from 5-7 business days to complete down to 1-2 business days. For AP, it has created efficiencies with uploading, approving and paying bills. We have been able to eliminate our use of paper, only needing to use it if companies send paper bills or they only accept paper check payments.
  • staying up to date with technology
  • very user friendly
  • creates business efficiencies
  • great customer service
  • improvements on submitting AP bills for approval
Sage Intacct is very user friendly and always being updated to help our business become more efficient. We do not currently use it for our accounts receivables due to the style of business we do.

We are a General Contractor that used Sage 100 for 10 years before making to switch to Intacct
  • Integrates with Procore
  • Extensive reporting capabilities
  • Automated monthly activities
  • Sage 100 had a Project Summary Screen. A one stop shop for all project related information. We can build something similar in a Dashboard but it isn't as good as Sage 100.
  • In Sage 100 issuing joint checks was a breeze. It is a very frustrating and time consuming process in Intacct.
  • We have only been live for a couple of months but these are the two most frustrating issues at the moment.
Overall SAGE Intacct is a vast improvement over SAGE 100. However, there are some simple features in 100 that we took for granted that are not in Intacct which is frustrating.

Sage Inracct is used across the whole company. It is mostly used for company financials, but our project managers use reports to help run their jobs. The financial part of Intacct works very well. With the new Construction module, the project accounting is much better. We can now do more inside of Intacct and not have to do it in excel.
  • The cash management module is very easy to use and works well. Makes bank reconciliations easy.
  • The Report Center is very nice; there are many standard reports. But the report writer is great, gives you the ability to create reports for what you need.
  • AP and AR modules are also very easy to use. The Manage View feature is very handy to help sort by specific things to make finding entries easy.
  • The Project module needs more functionality. It is basically a data entry area. The schedule of values isn't in Intacct at all. You have no visibility of invoices by project or to be able to tell what invoices on that project are open without going to a different module and running reports. In the Project module, you get very high-level information, but you're not able to get any good detail.
  • Purchase orders cannot be edited/updated after they have been partially converted. This is a big oversight; it is very common to have to add items to a PO, especially for items like freight which is completely unknown at the time of PO creation. You should be able to at very least be able to add new likes to a PO after partial conversion.
  • You should be able to have as many Project Items/cost codes as you want. If you're a project-based company and all projects are completely different, you need to be able to track against many items.
Sage Intacct is a very good day to day accounting system, but where they have improved greatly is with the addition of the Construction and Real Estate module. This has give us much more functionality in tracking our project contracts and profitability. They have also added a change management function to be able to create change orders to PO's, project contracts and project estimates. There is still room for improvement in the change management functionality, as it is currently kind of cumbersome. But they are continually adding functionality and improving all areas of the system.

We're using Sage Intacct for accounting for two entities. The program is very robust. It allows for tailored reporting to meet specific needs across the two entities. We can also easily create summarized as well as detailed reports. The audit trail is strong. Integrations with other apps have made the journal entry process much easier, too.
  • The ability to tailor the system to our needs is a big help.
  • We were able to set up the account number structure in such a way that easily allows for detailed or summarized reporting.
  • Integrations with other apps have created time savings for our team.
  • The program is expensive for smaller organizations.
  • Learning how to create custom reports has been a challenge. Good quality training is important.
Our office handles accounting for two different entities with a large number of funds. Sage Intacct's program has the capability of handling everything we were looking for and is very capable of growing with us.

In my business we use Sage Intacct for various different things. These mostly include general accounting, PR creation and payroll. We also take advantage of the integration features on offer which has helped us address efficiency problems within the business and streamline processes.

This has helped to eliminate human error from everyday accounting tasks.
  • Sage Intacct's customisation features are quite useful since they enable us to customise it to meet our specific business requirements. Custom reports and account charts are something we can create to improve the overall experience.
  • Payroll and CRM integration have really helped us as a business. This has increased the accuracy across the department and ensures we are all looking at up to date information.
  • Perhaps most useful of them all is how simple Sage Intacct is to use, even for the new user. We have found it very intuitive to use and like the modern design that makes finding the necessary information straightforward.
  • We have found that some users find it difficult to get started on Sage Intacct, as all the information can be a little overwhelming for the new user. A guided approach for new users or a simpler set up could assist with this.
  • We have also found there can be quite a steep learning curve when it comes to learning the full functionality of Sage Intacct. This can be even harder if the new users aren't familiar with accounting software in general. I think having more support during on boarding would help with this.
  • We have had some issues with setting up some of the integration features. Once set up they are fantastic and help a lot but getting through the initial set up can be challenging and take quite some time and effort.
I find that Sage Intacct has been very well suited to our business, this is due to our business being a large international business with employees worldwide. This means we needed our accounting software to be accessed and processed by people world wide. We needed software that could keep up with our demands as a business. It may be less suited to very small start ups that only have a handful of employees.

We use it as our main transaction platform for sales, invoicing, stock management, ordering, etc. <br><br>It allows us to keep track of all the ins and outs of our business which makes sales and stock management more efficient versus doing everything on manual paperwork. <br><br>As a sales rep it makes my job much easier because I can process an invoice much faster, with the system automatically doing stock calculations and product values I don't have to worry about invoice totals being incorrect or working it out by hand. It also makes it easier for me to keep track of the products we have on offer and the stock we have available.
  • Data Capturing
  • Invoicing
  • Calculations
  • Journal Entries
  • Stock Management
  • Information Layouts
It is a good program for any small or growing business looking to have an easy, quick and functional system to keep track of all business transactions. User friendly and efficient in the workplace allowing for quicker processes in the business and better customer satisfaction.

We use Sage Intacct as our system of record for accounting. Sage Intacct allows us to have tighter control over user permissions, better reporting capabilities, and the ability to integrate with many other SaaS tools to automate many of our processes.
  • Dimension reporting makes it really easy to keep a streamlined chart of accounts and still be able to slice and dice the data in many ways.
  • Sage Intacct's marketplace partners has allowed us to integrate with many tools to automate many of our processes.
  • AP approvals rules are limited when compared to other products. Even when compared to the approval rules available in Intacct's Purchasing module, AP approval capabilities are quite limited.
  • Prepaid module is okay to use but it outdated and needs a UI refresh. The pages are not as intuitive as it could be and populating the fields are clunky.
As our company scales and moves towards becoming a public company, audit controls are extremely important and Sage Intacct does a very good job of setting custom user/role permissions. The dimensions in Intacct are also well suited for our company as we have multiple departments and cost centers. Dimensions allowed us to trim our chart of accounts but still allow us to slice and dice data in ways we couldn't do previously in our old accounting system.

We use Sage Intacct at the heart of our operation. All sales are done using Intacct. We also use it for stock availability. This makes Quoting/Invoicing very easy as we do not need to rely on our warehouse for constant stock counts of individual line items. Further than these features we can also use Intacct for internal messaging which is very valuable when our logistics department has loaded new shipments into the system which the sales team can then begin selling.
  • Quotes
  • Invoices
  • Support
  • Stock availability when checking item codes before entering the item into the quote/invoice.
  • More detailed descriptions of the item before entering the item into the quote/invoice.
  • Community messages more user friendly - "Mark all messages as read"
Intacct is great for growing businesses with many branches and possible branches to be opened in the future. It really allows teams to communicate well together in the company using the internal community features.
Most of the issues experienced thus far have mainly been as a result of implementation misunderstandings.

Full Cycle International Accounting, Accounts Payable, Accounts Receivable, Purchasing, Financial Reporting, cash and credit card reconciliation, etc. We use multiple layers of fields and coding for reporting structure. We're integrating 3 ERP systems into Sage Intacct globally. We're in process of onboarding hundreds of employees to Sage Intacct. Company restructuring for growth with acquisitions. Our AP team is in process of reviewing the benefits of AP Automation. We utilize the collaboration center and approval layers in Sage Intacct and frequently keep up with the Quarterly releases from Sage Intacct to benefit our team.
  • Collaboration Center - Incredibly useful for Deadline requests, training purposes, audit trails attached to correlating support.
  • Project Coding - Easy to follow and code to PO's and Invoices.
  • Department and Service Line ID's are fields we just included but have been useful for reporting in our organization.
  • Calculating VAT Tax Subtotals accurately.
  • Editing Invoices after they're posted or paid if it's in the same period!
  • Collaboration Center checklist where you don't have to see every tag but more of a completed or still pending status.
Sage Intacct is by far the best ERP system I have used over the years. It's the most user friendly and customizable system for large scale accounting. There are always going to be areas that have room for improvement but from what I have experienced working with Sage Intacct is that they're continuously improving every quarter with new releases trying to meet client needs.

There are specific nuances but once you familiarize yourself with them Sage Intacct is quick to learn.

The Help and Resource center specifically gives step by step instructions by module.

Personally, I utilize Sage for Accounts Payable. Coming from a non-finance background and working at a non-profit organization with many funding sources and departments, I have found Sage Intaact to have a moderate learning curve. Overall, the system offers many capabilities, but is not very intuitive. Small tweaks to the system based on customer feedback would make working within the software more efficient and useful.
  • Ability to export data in various formats
  • Sorting functions
  • Custom views
  • Detailed explanations when "errors" are generated in various environments such as uploads and invoice entry (currently the details provided don't seem to end up matching what the issue actually is and are not clear in terms of how to resolve/proceed)
  • No ability to merge duplicate vendors
  • Lacking option to "post" multiple bills in draft state, must do individually which takes a lot of time each week when we pay bills
Sage seems to be more appropriate for larger, corporate type companies that are focused on purchasing with limited funding sources and grant requirements. As a nonprofit user, the system is very finance oriented, which isn't as approachable when trying to outsource/train certain tasks to our various departments.

I use Sage Intacct to submit Purchasing requests. if the request is denied then I have to come back and edit the requisition in order to be resubmitted and send over to the correct person in the chain of command. some of the issues will be the Page timing out before you can submit the request. other times it does not allow the attachment to load.
  • easy to navigate
  • pre saved information.
  • nice page layout
  • the timing out of the page
  • better system to be able to open it from any browser.
  • being able to create archives
When submitting the requisition, I like that you are able to use pre-saved information available for you to use. But what I don't like is when I get busy and work on something else like taking a phone call and when i come back the page froze and i have to start all over again.

My experience with Sage Intacct has been amazing and awesome. I have used it for more than 2 years and I must disclose that it is an excellent and outstanding solution for accounting management. I like the ability to monitor transactions across all saving accounts in real-time.
  • Sage Intacct makes financial budgeting and planning very effective.
  • It allows us to see what we have sold, what is in store.
  • It allows us to track our payments in one place.
  • The application sometimes hangs especially on large data sets.
  • I don't like how Sage Intacct's customer support team sometimes takes longer to respond.
  • The application has a steep learning curve, getting started with it especially for new users can be a bit tedious.
Sage Intacct is one of the best and most reliable software for accounting. Since I started using it, it has brought a very huge impact on our company since it allows us to manage our business workflow with ease. It is convenient with resource management, time tracking, and project management.

We use Sage Intacct for managing day-to-day activities such as accounting, customer Details, Vendor Details, and Financial reports.
It addresses problems like having all the records of all the multi-entities and multi-currency in one ledger.
We use this application to have all the vendors and customer details, and maintain their financials, marking offline payments, cash applications, customer invoice creations, and reports.


  • when we receive payment from the customer we can apply cash to that particular invoice so that it will be cleared in customer aging report.
  • we can mark offline payment for multiple invoices of particular vendor at once
  • when we mark offline payment for inter entity transactions the back end entry gets automatically posted
  • if we void the payment which is applied to bulk or multiple invoices all the payments will be reversed instead of single payment , if there is a option to reverse a particular payment even though it is applied in bulk that would be helpful
I would like to rate it 9 as there is no option of reversing a particular payment when it is applied in bulk, which is a area of improvement.

Sage Intacct is used as our complete accounting software. We started using Intacct in Jan 2024 and i use it in my role as assistant accountant to assist with month end prep, bank reconciliation and accruals/prepayments. The duplicate and reverse journal entries is massively helpful as it cuts out a lot of the manual correction time that was required previously.
  • Bank reconciliation with the automatic bank feeds
  • Journal duplication
  • Reversals
  • ease to unallocate applied payments in accounts payable
  • Handling of intercompany payments seems a little difficult
  • Menu options being able to be set to a default e.g. 'Inception to date' has to be selected every time on a customer/supplier account
The ability to use adjustments/reversals means a lot of the tedious correction work that was done by manually journaling items is no longer required. The UI is fairly straightforward and similar to a lot of other accounting packages meaning the move from our previous provider has been simple as the menus are intuitive

We use Sage Intacct for standard Accounting and Financial reporting. But the goal is to create Dashboards for our Program Directors so they can see where they stand in terms of Budgets and Actuals. That goes for the Board of Directors and other stakeholders. We are implementing Projects and other Ad Hoc reports in addition to standard accounting and financial reports.
  • For Grants Inception to Date reports.
  • Dash Boards.
  • Projects reporting.
  • Grant Allocation based on other than Salaries.
  • Custom Reports has too many steps.
  • Integration with 3rd party Payroll services.
Scenarios where it is less appropriate to integrate with third-party payroll services. I spend a lot of time trying to configure the importing and set-up of Journal Entries/GL from Payroll to Intacct.

We were beginning to outgrow Sage 50 and were looking for future proofing the business.
Sage Intacct has multiple Dimensions and Account Groups for reporting purposes. I use these on custom dashboards to allow analysis at the touch of a button.
In addition to this we have also started to use the statistical journal entries to monitor non financial aspects of the business. Going forwrad for reporting on ESG factor this will be very handy.

We have multiple companies and will be looking at consolidation accounts in the future. This is now ready to go at the click of a button as there is a Top Level in Sage Intacct that allows you to look at all your companies at once.
  • Reporting
  • Dashboards
  • Statistical data
  • Fixed Asset register - not UK friendly
  • Vat codes - too many
If reporting is one of the main reasons you struggle with the current systems you are on then I would highly recommend Sage Intacct. The reporting is really what you make it, as it has a custom report designer and can make reports using Dimensions or Account Groups.If you have various companies under one Vat number this would also be handy as this could be run at Top Level rather than manually add vat returns together.

Its a great software which has all the right tools which are useful in our daily recording of data & there are multiple ways by which we can keep a track of our revenue. Invoicing activity also becomes very easy due to the easy bulk upload process & invoices can be shared just from a few clicks. Also the ease at which we can implement multi currency & multi entity models are very useful.
  • i recently prepared a custom report to track month on month recurring & non-recurring revenue by customers which reduced the manual effort of preparing reports in excel which an excellent feature.
  • we can generate invoices in multiple currencies by having a separate transaction definition under a single entity
  • Invoices can be shared directly from Sage Intacct by customizing suitable templates
  • as per the requirements of the organization i am working for i haven't encountered any such difficulty as of now
It saves a lot of time when we are working on the AR part of any business, from generating the Invoices which can be automated also to sharing the Invoices. The tracking process is also very convenient either we use AR aging or P&L reports it makes day to day reporting very easy.

[Sage] Intacct is the ERP Tool [that] I use to oversee entries and posts related to a number or smaller entities. I use it to approve/decline JE, prepare FS, audit, and support tax filings.
  • Quick access to all areas of the firm
  • Superb cloud functionalities
  • User friendliness and friendliness of use
  • More details in a few areas perhaps
  • Integrate Yooz OCR perhaps
Well suited for the overall day-to-day operations of a company. Very easy to post entries and access all sorts of statements from wherever you are. Easy to approve/decline JEs.

We use Sage Intacct to pull data into our system and generate optimised cash flow mechanisms, allowing users to track inflows and outflows better and suggest ways to improve and forecast cash flow. We use Sage Intacct as part of our AP and AR automation where we help users to strategically plan and optimise working capital.
  • The documentation is self explanatory most of the times, helps in understanding the entity better
  • The help section is very useful when it's difficult to create any transaction
  • The categorisation is clear and concise, I use AP,AR, GL mostly
  • I also liked the UI part
  • Sometimes its difficult to understand why a particular transaction is failing, and the error information may not be understandable. This could be done better
  • documentation which has the error codes and relevant solutions to resolve that could be a feature i would suggest
Sage Intacct is well suited for most companies as it is beginner friendly and with right learning time usable by anyone. It is well suited for companies where there is a hierarchy of users as each user has a particular role and clearly defined permissions. The employee expenses allows the employee information to be tracked better and this is something crucial for most companies.

Sage Intacct has been exactly what we needed to expand our business capabilities. The ability to track fixed assets, increase automation, and track inventory across locations and warehouses is indispensable. Reporting and budgeting across different departments within the business has greatly improved our decision making. Would definitely recommend to anyone who has outgrown QuickBooks.
  • Budgeting
  • Inventory Control
  • Reports
  • Dashboards
  • Accessability
  • Ease of Training
  • Issues with Importing Data Files
Sage Intacct does well with inventory control! We have inventory in over 100 locations that needs to be tracked and valued and any adjustments and transfers that we need to make are very easy to initiate within the Inventory Control module. Reporting on inventory has been very helpful for me to give to other managers in the company to aid their decision making.
