The Intuit Enterprise Suite is an end-to-end business platform providing: financial management, forecasting and accounting capabilities; integrated payroll, payments, and bill pay; automated marketing; access to third-party apps, and access to a team of experts.
If someone was asking about it for retail use it would be a 10 for sure. Compared to larger ERPs, Intacct has most everything most business would need and then some. For the Family Office environment it's like fitting an oval shape into a round hole. It's really close, but you have to do some manipulating in how you use it.
With Intuit Enterprise Suite we have learned how to move some of our manual spreadsheets into the system to keep better track and get better numbers with. Things like Inventory, and Fixed Assets. The training has been great, they have numerous webinars and meetings that help us better understand Intuit Enterprise Suite.
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.
It tracks all payments to all vendors, so if any questions arise, it's easy to find the answer.
It tracks employee hours worked, holiday hours, and other paid time off, including vacations. It also tracks bonuses and employee profile information, including hire dates, contact information, Social Security, and Federal withholding details.
At the end of the year, all of our financial transactions can be summarized for our accountants so our tax returns can be prepared.
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.
Because I love the software and the people behind it are passionate about building the features to support business growth. They have built so many features I have asked for and it gets better and better
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.
I have worked with other accounting software products and nothing compares to the ease of Intuit Enterprise Suite because it is easy to learn and to train and there are multiple ways and shortcuts to use to get to certain areas within the software.
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.
Excellent. I am the first Lighthouse customer and I see first hand that their team cares, they care about not just the features but about their customers and their success. They truly want their customers to succeed
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.
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 looking for previously posted information. I personally love that you can run Intacct offline to practice with these features.
I have personal experience with both and believe that Intuit is the best option. Microsoft (and most of their products) are riddled with issues and limit productivity. Netsuite has a lot of customization options, but takes a long time to deal with and is much more expensive for the same things
Overall our experience has been great - easy and smooth onboarding process
Better support experience has surprised and delighted the team in ways I wasn't really expecting
I like it more than I expected I would - the convenience of having it all in one place and being able to toggle through entities is really a major improvement
