Sage Intacct - good for flexible reporting
What do you like best about the product?
Sage Intacct proved to be an invaluable system when our business went through various restructures - the flexibility of the dimensions and reporting capabilities meant we could easily create new reports to reflect the new requirements without having to reclassify any historic data.
What do you dislike about the product?
Compared to other accounting systems, like QBO, there are fewer default reports. Intacct's strength in being extremely flexible on the reporting can also be its challenge as there is more scope for errors with an inexperienced user.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sage Intacct has a whole marketplace of partners that offer integrated solutions for AP, payroll etc. These integrations save us so much time in data entry.
Great Cloud-Based Accounting System for a Single Entity, Room for Improvement for a Multi-Entity
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use! Within a month of using Sage Intacct I was able to learn the system without any external trainings. The reporting functionality is also very robust and simple to create custom reports without having to spend much time learning how to do so. I also like that the software is cloud based and I do not have to wait for a desktop program to start up. The software also has many partners such as FloQast, Expensify and Blissfully that allow for an easy API integration. Intacct also connects to our bank account for simplistic cash management.
What do you dislike about the product?
Consolidations is quite confusing! I would not recommend Intacct for a multi-entity company. It is very tough to follow a transaction through the consolidation process. Especially when dealing with international entities it can be quite difficult to follow a transaction from initial entry through intercompany through foreign exchange rate all the way to the consolidated financial statements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Sage Intacct to drive very big business decisions. We are a rapidly growing SaaS company and have used Intacct to scale with our tremendous growth and the system has been able to adapt to our business quite effortlessly. We have built over 1,000 customized reports so we can slice and dice any dimension whether it be by department, vendor, employee or project spend. Our finance team loves analyzing financial metrics that are non-GAAP and intacct provides the bandwidth to support both financial and non-financial reporting as well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are a single entity company I highly recommend Sage Intacct. However, if you are a multi-entity company, especially one that is international, I would check out other options. The global consolidations module is hard to understand and difficult to trace a transaction through.
Sage Intacct for Multi Entity
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy the software is to navigate through and use. It has solutions for all of our needs whether it's native to Intacct or an add-on through a third party integration. I also like the Global consolidations and easy to customize reports. If there is not a report already available, it can be created.
What do you dislike about the product?
The multi currency functionality is a little limiting, but there are work arounds to make everything work. I think they could stand to improve that functionality. I also wish there were more options native to Intacct rather than having to implement a third party.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving a lot of manual entry problems we previously had. Intacct has provided a lot of time saving processes for our company in terms of creating and sending out invoices on a monthly basis.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great software. If you're good at researching and solving problems/issues that may arise, they have a great help feature. It's capable of integrating with many other softwares/solutions and very easy to use.
User Friendly
What do you like best about the product?
The system is very easy to use and has many useful functions.
What do you dislike about the product?
Custom reports could be easier to build.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy download of data to Excel.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Review your needs.
The most user friendly office accounting software I've used
What do you like best about the product?
I like that entering new transactions is quick and easy and I can track the progress of approvals. Project codes makes it easy to make sure we can budget within accounts. I love that I can copy to a new transaction. It makes those regular monthly expenses I make on the credit card easy to submit.
What do you dislike about the product?
I had to figure out how to get around an attachment issue and it was quite the problem: If I attached my card statement to more than one submission (because they had different approval paths), the additional attachments with that statement would overwrite the other attachments in the other submissions. To get around this, I would only attach the receipts for that submission (and approval path) only and then after submitting attach the statement using the comment thread file upload feature so the finance office could see that I reconciled my statement for payment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking projects and staying on top of our submissions to the finance office has never been easier or less time consuming. If there is a problem, it is easier than ever to communicate with the finance office about a specific submission now that we have the comment thread feature on each submission.

Powerful but not user friendly
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to consolidate all entities into high level reports is extremely helpful and a major time saver.
What do you dislike about the product?
The calculations within the report are not user friendly. You sometimes have to set up multiple internal calculations to get what I would expect are basic financial metrics.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Consolidating multiple entities into single reporting.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ask very specific questions on how Intacct will calculate your desired financial numbers.
Sage is the most intuitive and versatile accounting automation system.
What do you like best about the product?
Sage interfaces with endless AP Automation companies - this accounting automation has increased productivity while also ensuring accuracy; by reducing the manual labor of time consuming entries and quality assurance checks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sage has so many options and sponsors to choose from, if it overwhelming to know which way to go.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We had a turnover in accounting which left us months behind- the AP automation with Sage, got us caught back up in no time and on better track then ever before.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The reporting, automation, and reduced risk will simplify your day to day workload and is well worth the upgrade!
