Overall Satisfaction with Sage Intacct

I work majorly on end to end accounting. Major Business problem that we face while preparing accounts is that information is scattered and not easily understandable. Further when dealing with multiple dimensions of reporting sometimes reports doesn't capture all the or crucial reporting dimensions.

Sage Intacct addresses these problems efficiently as mentioned below:-

it provides me with overall reporting modules. 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.
  • Custom Reporting : Captures multiple dimensions and minute details
  • Consolidated and comparative financial
  • AP and AR module contain all customer and vendor details, payment or receipt details
  • Easy synchronization with other software like bill.com, BlackLine, nexonia and Expensify
  • Automation of employee expense reports and there accounting posting
  • Cloud based system helps easy accessibility
  • When downloading GL Tabular for entities, sometimes reports gets crashed.
  • Its difficult to open multiple tab of same entity or different client.
  • When we export file some reports gets downloaded in MS-97 format.
  • Graphical reports are missing
  • Homepage is very basic and doesn't provide eagle view of the reports and modules
  • Since it automate tasks saves time
  • Integration with system saves time and cost
  • Proper and holistic reports provide better insights for decision making and adds to business
  • Multilevel reporting provides better opportunities for presentation
  • Syncing of different module require less human intervention for clerical or recurring tasks and hence quality work with less resources
As mentioned core financial processes like general ledger, accounts payable, accounts receivable, and order management are automated and synced it require less human intervention for recurring tasks. Further automated entries saves time and provide opportunities to work on analytics and not not clerical tasks. It requires use of less resources and allocation of most resources on quality works. Further integration of different modules helps in identification of errors on timely manner. Automated entores are also automatically correct and saves the burden of human error and omission
Financial capabilities offered by Sage Intacct are incredible. Multi Currency reporting and their conversion helps at saves time and errors. It provide same reports in base currency and reporting currency helps to translate reports effectively and efficiently. Consolidation of multiple currency in single reporting currency saves the time and provide all the data at one place in single format so as to help in better interpretation of financial and communication of analysis thereof. Time and expense module provide details of all the expense reports submitted approved and proper accounting for the same is done to proper department and proper GL. This automated feature saves time for all the parties involved in process.
We generally configure all the reporting layout and fields we want to see in a report as per our needs and most of the required reporting options are available. Weather it be Vendor module or Employee data we can customise how we want to see reports and what details we want to see in UI. It also provides various options to configure how a report can be generated and what are the sections we want and create and save our own customized reports for future downloads.
