Great Improvement Over Quickbooks
What do you like best about the product?
We love the ease of use, customization, and the ability yo access our data from anywhere.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a little costly for a small business, but it is worth it if you are pushing the limits of an off the shelf software package.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have experienced rapid growth and the need to manage many transactions and reports.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Highly recommended.
Overall good software, could use improvements
What do you like best about the product?
This is good for audit trails and overall accounting software, but improvements can be made.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was better support. Also, there are some things that could be improved such as the attachment folders. You can't move the attachments in bulk from one folder to another. You have to do it one by one by opening each up. It is very tedious.
I also wish that you could enter custom dates for the recurring journal entries function because some entries need to be made every 2nd and 3rd month, but not the 1st. But I can't do that.

Accruals and accounts payable
Excellent Product
What do you like best about the product?
I love the flexibility of the system and the constant improvement of the product. In the 8 years I have used the product, it has gone from a really good product to an excellent product. Our organization operates with greater efficiency because of the purchasing workflows. Also, dashboards reduce the custom reports we have to run for our various teams.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside to me is the user structure. We have users that are more than employee users, but may only need one more function. We are required to make them business users and that substantially increases cost. It would be great to have a mid level user that is less expensive, but adds limited features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The first major improvement was with our purchasing system. We had a very manual process, but now everything flows electronically through the system. People are notified when they need to approve and the requester is notified when the PO is approved. Another improvement was to our financial reporting. We used to have to provide manual reports periodically to our teams, but now they can login to see their dashboards and other data. Our teams now have quicker purchase approvals and greater access to their financial data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ask questions about how to fit the system to your processes. There is greater flexibility than the standard setup.
Lengthy time consuming project if you require a lot of customization but Good for accruals.
What do you like best about the product?
Revenue recognition across contracts and multiple filtering options for reports
What do you dislike about the product?
Very unforgiving. Can not even correct a typo without having to delete or reverse entries then start all over.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We exchanged using manual excel spreadsheets for rev rec and replaced it with a entry heavy workflow upfront. Goal was to automate the revenue and eliminate the risk of formula errors.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
works great if you are a cookie cutter company that only has one basic business model.

Seemless Muti-Entity Multi-Currency Consolidations
What do you like best about the product?
When we were searching for a new accounting system to replace QuickBooks there were several requirements that were necessary have in our search and evaluation.
1) Seamless Consolidation of Muti-Entities using multiple currencies.
2) The ability to use dimensions to reduce the size of our chart of accounts.
3) Dashboards for key operating metrics and report distribution for management.
Intacct hit on all three of our requirements in a big way. The consolidation is now prepared with the push of a button whereas in the past with QuickBooks the consolidation was a very manual and time consuming process in excel that generally took about a week to prepare.
Using dimensions, we are able to tag each transaction with key attributes that were important for our end using reporting. The use of dimensions has allowed us to create multiple reports utilizing locations, regions, cost centers etc.
Dashboards have been a great way to eliminate paper reports by creating custom dashboards with key operating metrics for each manager. These dashboards are real-time and allow management to makes decisions with timely, accurate data.
4) Upload templates have also been a huge time saver for input of journal entries and accounts payable bills.

What do you dislike about the product?
I really cant find anything that I dislike in the system.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The benefits of Intacct have been significant. From a time saving perspective we have saved many man hours per month when we implemented Intacct. Now more time can be spent reviewing the data and being able to make timely decisions on accurate data.
The controls around the system prevent transactions from being deleted. There is always a great audit trail. I felt with QuickBooks there were no controls over data input and modifications.
The most important benefit has been being able to produce timely accurate data with the ability to deliver seamless reports and dashboards to senior management so that the business decision makers have timely and accurate data at their fingertips to make smart decisions.
