Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We use Sage Intacct as the core financial system for our trade association, which has a diverse revenue mix including membership dues, an annual conference, government contracts, and a growing training program. Before Sage Intacct, we were on Microsoft Dynamics Great Plains, which had become increasingly unstable and wasn't keeping up with our growth. Our data was scattered across multiple systems, integrations were manual, and invoicing was handled by individual sales departments with no centralized visibility. Sage Intacct addressed all of that. We now have real integrations with our AMS, expense management, and budget tools, so data flows in automatically. We centralized invoicing under accounting, freeing our sales teams to focus on revenue rather than chasing payments. Automated reminders, recurring journal entries, and direct auditor access have significantly reduced manual work across the team. We actively use the Accounts Receivable, Order Entry, and Prepaid Expense modules, and dimensions have been a game-changer for custom reporting. The ability to answer leadership questions in real time, without digging through multiple systems, has been one of the most meaningful improvements since going live.
