My main use case for Sage Intacct is setting up the systems and configuring it for clients to use it properly for accounting.

I have set up Sage Intacct from the beginning of company-specific setup, creating the entities and different modules such as accounts receivable and accounts payable, loading master data, and integrating Nexonia, Ramp, and Bill.com to Sage Intacct, ensuring all these applications flow together for accounting purposes.

We set up the systems and have used the O2C revenue management module and the consolidation module; however, the consolidation module lacks several features in setup, including the inability to create different sub-level entities, and it is very rigid and not customizable for adding different entities under one book, so we are trying to create multiple books. Overall, Sage Intacct lacks customization for user specifics, such as creating custom reports or custom fields, which are not very user-friendly, presenting a point of improvement.

Sage Intacct has positively impacted my organization as we predominantly use it as the accounting software for all our clients; we onboard them by setting up their company structures and configurations, preparing everything ready for their accounting and finance analysis.

Specific outcomes show that Sage Intacct has significantly benefited our clients by organizing data in the system; previously, clients used low-level ERP systems, but after transitioning to Sage Intacct, they gained control over GLs created and prevented duplications of vendors or customers, which has reduced confusion in financial statements and made them more organized. Additionally, it has reduced duplication of entries by accurately capturing invoice number details and has saved significant time by automatically generating P&Ls and balance sheets without the need for manual preparation.

The accuracy of accounting has improved by nearly 95%, and we save about three days of manual effort to prepare financial statements.

The best features Sage Intacct offers include the import feature and the integrations feature, with imports allowing us to load a large number of data into the system at one time, while the integration module enables us to integrate different systems and have the entries flow into Sage Intacct without any manual intervention.

The import feature has particularly saved a lot of time; for example, we had to load 10,000 journal entries at one time, and by preparing our template based on the import feature, we downloaded the template, had the data ready, and used it to automatically load the entries into Sage Intacct, especially for the revenue management module. Regarding integration, thousands of Ramp transaction entries flow directly to Sage Intacct, posting entries without manual intervention and sometimes without even needing to reclassify because all the categories are derived automatically using the MCC codes from the bank directly.

Sage Intacct automates the revenue management module, particularly in posting revenue recognition entries like deferred revenue at month-end or other applicable frequencies; we can click a button to get entries posted for large data amounts, making this process incredibly helpful and automated.

Sage Intacct should offer users more customizable options, particularly in sending emails to customers regarding invoices, as it currently allows only a single email selection derived from contact information, which can be limiting when bill-to and ship-to addresses differ.

User experience is generally good, although integrations are sometimes challenging; for example, I found the Rippling integration to be particularly difficult. Some user help or support from Sage Intacct support team on Rippling integration would have been beneficial.

I have reached out to Sage Intacct support team regarding tax calculations not happening correctly, even when the configurations appear as expected; the resolution process involved multiple back-and-forths, taking about one week on average for a solution, indicating a potential area for improvement.

I have been working in my current field for around six years but in the current company it is more than one year and eight months.

I have been using Sage Intacct for more than one and a half years.

Sage Intacct handles growth and increased data volume well, demonstrating good scalability.

New users getting started with Sage Intacct can begin with a straightforward interface.

It is easy for new users to get comfortable with Sage Intacct, but a few advanced modules require some guidance or help, especially concerning configurations.

In terms of integration with third-party applications, I find the Nexonia integration very easy and friendly, as well as Bill.com, although the integration with Ramp is somewhat manageable. However, the Rippling integration poses challenges due to inconsistencies in locations and dimensions, making it tougher.

I feel very confident in Sage Intacct's ability to safeguard financial data, ensuring both security and compliance.

Sage Intacct is not used on mobile devices.

My advice for others looking into using Sage Intacct is to be careful with configuration because once set, the system runs exactly as configured, so it is essential to choose wisely and be crystal clear about the requirements.

Overall, Sage Intacct is a very useful accounting tool, and it can scale up more to be used for large-scale industries, featuring a friendly user interface and good user experience. I would rate Sage Intacct an eight out of ten because it is an overall solution that genuinely helps customers manage their financial data, although it still has room for improvement and flexibility for users.

I used Sage Intacct for almost two years in my previous position, not in my current role.

My main use case for Sage Intacct during that time was that it served as the accounting software for our global company, while our Indian company, which I am part of, used different software. At every month end, we prepared an import file using our local accounting software and then uploaded the data into Sage Intacct, which was used under the subsidiary for global consolidation.

The process worked by downloading an import file from Sage Intacct and typically doing the mapping between the India accounting GL and the Sage Intacct global GL that we were using. Then I filled the data into a consolidated journal entry using the template and JE upload template, which I then uploaded into Sage Intacct as a single file upload.

This represents the only monthly activity we actually performed. I was not actively using Sage Intacct for day-to-day accounting since those transactions were handled in local accounting software, but on a monthly basis, we exported all data, remapped it, and uploaded it into Sage Intacct.

The best features Sage Intacct offers, based on my experience, include reporting, which is one of the best features I appreciated, as well as a different set of mapping in terms of cost centers and different departmental lines that we actually needed.

The reporting capabilities stood out for me because we could generate required reports from Sage Intacct, including all financial statements needed for consolidation and various reconciliations with the parent company and the subsidiary. This was very helpful while uploading local accounting data into Sage Intacct, allowing us to perform reconciliation effectively.

The real-time financial reporting and dashboards are features I would definitely mention as interesting. The customization we could do on department, project, and other metrics offered a different kind of segregation, and the cloud-based accessibility is another good feature I appreciate.

Sage Intacct has positively impacted my organization by facilitating collaboration; we could handle the entire accounts for the India and US entities while getting real-time financial reporting. Additionally, because it is cloud-based software, it is accessible anytime from anywhere, which is beneficial.

Intercompany reconciliation stands out as a specific outcome I noticed; since both companies are under the same Sage Intacct account, we could perform intercompany reconciliation without manual intervention, highlighting an improvement.

One area where Sage Intacct can be improved is user-friendliness, particularly in enhancing features in aging reports and ledger statements that typically help in obtaining customer statements. Improving these features would be beneficial, especially in complying more with Indian requirements, since Sage Intacct is not an Indian software.

I rate Sage Intacct seven or eight overall and less than five for Indian accounting because it is not compliant with Indian accounting, especially regarding taxation, withholding tax, and GST rules, which differ from what is represented in the software. The current automation for Indian taxation is not functioning properly in Sage Intacct.

I have been working in my current field for two years.

Sage Intacct is stable.

I have not worked with customer support.

Before Sage Intacct, we used Oracle Business Suite, which was a query-based system regarding reporting, prompting our switch to this software, which is not query-based.

I cannot provide insights on return on investment because I am not the right person to comment on that; these subscriptions are US-based, and I am only a user who cannot assess their impact on overall investment.

The experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing was handled completely by the US team, and we were not part of those arrangements.

My advice for others looking into using Sage Intacct is to consider it if they need a cloud-based solution focused on better reporting. My company does not have a business relationship with this vendor other than being a customer. I would rate this product a seven overall.

I have seen a return on investment with Sage Intacct.

My experience with Sage Intacct's pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that it is somewhat slow and expensive.
