Sage Intacct is a cloud ERP system targeted at high-growth small and medium-sized businesses. Intacct includes applications for core financials and accounting, purchasing, order management, and financial reporting and business intelligence. It also integrates with 3rd party software like Salesforce.
I have used all these software. as discussed earlier Sage Intacct helps us in Inventory management. which is not good in our previous accounting software so we moved to Sage Intacct from that one. Some of the above mentioned software is not good for large scale businesses. I …
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.
QBo is best suited for small businesses and offering ease to use and affordability. QBo is cheaper than Sage intact and it have facility to work on multi entity in lesser amount. Netsuite Erp have a highly scalable with strong global consolidation and advanced functionality. …
Sage Intacct has most of the best features but doesn't have things integrated that I don't need/use. It's very module based so you can add/remove modules as you need to. It's very scalable as well so as I add entities, there's not an incremental software cost like there would …
We looked at and evaluated Sage Intacct along with Netsuite and Quickbooks. Given our size at the time, we felt Sage Intacct was best suited for our needs. Netsuite was much more expensive that Sage Intacct and Quickbooks did not quite have all the features that we needed. We …
We chose Sage Intacct over Sage 50 because Sage Intacct offers stronger reporting, better automation, and more advanced financial tools. Unlike Sage 50, Intacct can track expenses by program, location, and funding source, which is important for our organization. The improved …
It is considerably better. Sage 300 was slow and cumbersome to use. Having a cloud based solution is essential to our operations, as it has greatly reduced administrative time through processing and look up. The reporting in Intacct is substantially better, including the export …
For starters, ease of access works so much better in Intacct. Additionally, the availability of options for entering information into the software far exceeds what we've seen in other software, enabling more accurate reporting. The audit history also helps a ton when we're …
I have used them in different ways and like both for accounting specifics.

Chose Sage Intacct
Sage 50 and QuickBooks are "smaller systems," whereas Intacct has the potential for system integrations, reporting and dashboards beyond what we've had in the past.
I used D365 in my previous roles and Netsuite. While Netsute is great Sage is much more accounting friendly and allows up to do things like reversing JEs as opposed to booking two separate ones which can be time consuming.
Sage 300 seemed to be an easier platform to use at my previous employer as it is similar to Sage Intacct we improvements I had issues with on Sage 300. Adagio on the other hand has been dated for some time now, and has many issues that have not been addressed for many years as …
Sadly miss our former finance software...... it wasn't perfect but so much better for user and for report gathering...... looking up easy reference.... Vendor invoicing, Asset Management, Journal Entries, Purchase Order Processing, etc. SO MUCH BETTER. I wasn't part of the …
Sage Intacct might be too robust for my organization. There are a lot of features that we do not use and wouldn't know where to start if trying to implement. Working in a mid-size non-profit organization, we don't have the manpower to devote to learning the cool stuff Sage Intacct could do.
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.
Sage Intacct is continuously evolving and increasing it's functionalities. I am excited to attend conferences to learn what is in the roadmap for future releases. Additionally, using Sage Intacct allows me grow as a professional, I am really enjoy the knowledge that I have within the product to be able to share my experiences.
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.
There has only been one occurrence where Sage Intacct was not available to me, however I had already been working a number of hours trying to get a project completed. It honestly allowed me to step back and take a much needed break.
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.
Only a few times have we had to reach out to support, and every time we did, we received a relatively quick response and a solution was found fairly quickly. Only once was there an issue that took longer than a week to resolve, but it still did eventually get solved.
I have taken in person training classes at several of the annual Sage Intacct user conferences. It is very interactive and the trainers are very easy to follow and understand. They are great at getting everyone in the class involved. They also make sure everyone has learned to task before moving to a new one.
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.
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.
Sage Intacct has most of the best features but doesn't have things integrated that I don't need/use. It's very module based so you can add/remove modules as you need to. It's very scalable as well so as I add entities, there's not an incremental software cost like there would be with QuickBooks and it's less expensive than Oracle.
Positive - It runs better than our old software when we all work together, rather than having to sign off on each other and deal with syncing issues.
Negative - It's not as easy to go back to fix an amount, a date, etc. Sometimes, a very small mistake needs to be corrected by voiding and redoing the entire transaction.
We can successfully sync other software we use with Intacct! It reduces workload when things are automated.
