I have used Sage Intacct mainly on the order to cash functionality and with limited exposure to purchase and AP modules
I would like to say this is a flexible software which provides multiple automated accounting workflows that reduces manual intervention while it is integrated with other apps.
Contract module entry flow which is little complex but it provides very good visibility w.r.t what is flowing through the accounting and what is happening when.
Pros
Contract Module accounting flow - Though it is complex to understand, it is very much needed for reporting compliance with GAAP.
Integration with CRM, multiple billing and timesheet / expense management softwares
Custom reporting resolves much of customization required for many reports
Cons
Cross object relationship in custom reporting
Edit option in invoice after reversing cash application
Likelihood to Recommend
Contract and project management if the best. The custom reporting is the lovely feature that I would play all the time to create the required reports and automate the reporting functions.
Less appropriate only when some one off customization is required which needs lot of effort to do and I will go with manual approach

Customised reports like GL Tabular and P&L Portal Tabular helps us to get us to do more detailed and efficient reporting and review which provide better understanding of financials and let us look into more peculiar way. With those reports we can customize the financial as per our requirement. Further consolidation module is very user friendly. Multiple entities reports can be seen at in one format helps us to understand entity level and consolidation level reporting better. Trend reports are comprehensive and helps us to better compare results of multiple periods in a better way. It greatly helps us in trend analysis. Employee information is also very easily available.

Sage Intacct really streamlines the entire accounting experience, with most of the complexity being behind the scenes. It removes almost all possibility for error by having most of the complexity hidden in the form of vendors and accounts. This also drastically reduces the work load for those using it, since most of the information auto fills. It also makes all of your financial information centralized and easily accessible.
Pros
Centralized Data
Simplicity
Customization
Cons
Search feature is not very good
Sage University helps but a lot of the videos are repetitive and overlap in information
A better online help forum would be nice
Likelihood to Recommend
Sage seems more well suited for a larger scale multi entity corporation and less suited for a smaller business. It helps to simplify a lot of things that would be hard to manage with multiple entities. Overall, I think it is great software, just not for a single entity business.
