Overall Satisfaction with Sage Intacct

Sage Intacct is used primarily by our Accounting team, with some use by the Finance team. The tool solves for tracking some things in Excel, such as Fixed Assets, pre-paids, bank reconciliations, etc. Sage also integrates with some of our other systems, so there are efficiency gains in those areas, with one being expense reimbursement.
  • Customization of reporting -Sage Intacct allows you to build dashboards, and you can customize those reports to ensure you can reliably pull the information you need.
  • Annual conference - Sage has an annual conference that provides a lot of information on updates to their product, and other vendors in the Accounting/Finance space.
  • Updates - Sage [is] consistently providing updates, new features to the product.
  • Customer Service - It can be cumbersome to request support. You're required to login to another site, as oppose[d] to logging the case directly from the main page.
  • Assigning access - The access page is overwhelming. When new team members start it can be difficult to know how to give them the access they need, it is not always clear from the access page.
  • Sage Intacct has allowed us to get our monthly close time down by 3 days. We continue to utilize new features, and see new efficiencies.
  • Sage Intacct has allowed the Finance team to view reports and analyze without needing to go through the Accounting team.
Every page has a link to the help site- when you click that, it automatically takes you to a list of topics that are relevant to the page you're on. This makes it easy to trouble-shoot, or get more information on a process or feature you may be unfamiliar with.
We do not have a dedicated rep, so we have to log cases for support. The case feature is cumbersome, requiring you to login to a different website, which also has a separate username and password. The cases can sometimes take a while to get resolve[d], unless you really push.

Do you think Sage Intacct delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Sage Intacct's feature set?

Yes

Did Sage Intacct live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Sage Intacct go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Sage Intacct again?

Yes

My company has not utilized a lot of the automation features. We've looked into them, and at this time they unfortunately just do not fit the needs of our organization. We have made use of the automatic bank feeds, and since we have multiple bank accounts this has cut down on some of the monthly bank reconciliation process.
Sage Intacct offers a variety of integrations, but through some of my research into vendors, NetSuite offers more. Depending on the needs of your business, and the other vendors you use - this may be a lacking point. Sage Intacct has a lot of help articles that walk through processes step by step. This has been very useful for onboarding new team members.
