Overall Satisfaction with Sage Intacct

We currently use Sage Intacct as our entire accounting system. Intacct really helps to automate the accounting process by allowing users to push through both simple and complex journal entries in a way that makes sense, and in a way that can later be conveyed visually via reports/graphs. There is a logical flow, from when entries are made, to how they feed into some of the other modules. For example, posting a simple prepaid entry will have it flow into Intacct's prepaid module where it will automatically create amortization schedules for you, to which you can tweak/post the amortization to your liking.

Pros

  • Automate the accounting function.
  • Allows you to visualize your data/inputs easily through the Reports feature.
  • Has a very easy-to-follow interface.

Cons

  • I find that there are usually some delays from some modules to others (e.g. posting a prepaid through AP Bills will take about 5 minutes before you see it in the Prepaids module. The same goes for Fixed Assets.
  • Having a more simple report-writer function. The current one is a bit complex for new users to create their own custom reports.
  • Sage has definitely had a positive impact on our business objectives. I particularly like the consolidation function of it. If you have multiple companies, even if multi-currency, Intacct does a great job consolidating this for you on a monthly, quarterly, or YTD basis.
  • One negative impact of Sage Intacct is that a lot of time is spent trying to figure out how to customize reports and tweak them to our needs as the Report Writer function is not as intuitive as I'd like it to be.

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?

Yes

Did implementation of Sage Intacct go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Sage Intacct again?

Yes

Sage is much more simple to use and intuitive. It has a very clean and organized interface, and the automation of its accounting function is unmatched. The layout and design of Intacct makes it perfect for new users to follow the flow of entries.
I think Intacct is well-suited for small, and mid-sized organizations. It's very clean and easy to use. It organizes the data afterward very well, making it easy to search through records or display your entries in reports. Intacct is also fairly good at automating the accounting function as a whole. I think Intacct would be less appropriate when used for much larger organizations as I find certain areas of Intacct can be slow if you have a lot of customers, or if you want data to go from one module to another quickly (e.g. AP Bills --> Prepaids module requires a 5-minute wait).
