Audit trail: Need to know who changed an entry or deleted a transaction? Hiding fraudulent activities is now very difficult to do!
Reports: Create the exact report you need and save it for future use.
User permissions and roles: Ensure segregation of duties by assigning features and abilities to specific users and/or roles.

Bank reconciliation - I do not like the forced "matching" layout. I prefer the old layout where I can manually check off items and see real-time adjustments without needing to hit "match".
Bill changes - I want to be able to edit more fields for bills in an open period-paid or unpaid-without being forced to do a full reversal or making an additional reclassifying entry to correct a data entry mistake.
Vendor ACH information - I want to be able to send an [encrypted] email to a vendor to allow them to input their own bank information into the system that I do not have to see or handle in order to pay via ACH.

Usability

Beanworks 9.0

Based on 1 answer

Beanworks takes some time to set up initially, but once it's ready on your computer, it is very easy to use in conjunction with QuickBooks. They have representatives that are readily available or can schedule an appointment to walk you through it if you are ever having issues. Uploading invoices is quick and easy. Approvers can easily make changes to coding before approving.

Sage Intacct 8.2

Based on 131 answers

It is very easy to understand and one can adjust to the different features very quickly. The combination of wide versatility while still maintaining an easy to use interface is very helpful on our end. We spend very little time training new employees on the ins and outs of Sage Intacct because it is so easy to get [the] hang of.

There are times when the system is down when multiple people need to log in to track time to be able invoice clients. This at times can be painful, but we work around it when it happens.

I have had no issues with support. This has not been an issue at all. I have not had to reach out for any technical support and found the site pretty easy to figure out how. The site always is functioning and runs well. It has been nice to not have to worry about needing to reach out to technical support.

It was great for generic training but we had the system modified by our third party implementer and a lot of that was not covered in various training's that we received or took online. Attended Advantage last year and that as super helpful in learning a lot of the intricacies of the system.

I would not use a thrid party administrator to implement your system, especially if you are going to be modifying the system at all. Use Intacct implementors as they will be able to better support you on any issues that come up after you go live.

I like Intacct much better. Although NetSuite has a better reporting module, Intacct is superior is most other categories. For example, the bank rec in NetSuite might be from the stone ages. The bank rec module in Intacct is so user friendly and makes our month-end close become much, much smoother.

TIME! Sage Intacct has been a huge time saver over our legacy systems.
The ease of being able to quickly run a financial statement has been great.
Drill down features when looking at a line item on the financials has had a positive impact.
