Organizations considering Sage Intacct should invest time in proper planning and training before implementation. Clearly defining reporting and workflow requirements early will help maximize the platform’s capabilities. It’s also recommended to work with an experienced implementation partner and take advantage of available training resources to reduce the learning curve and ensure long-term success.
Sage Intacct is deployed in my organization online on the cloud. We use Microsoft Azure as the cloud provider for Sage Intacct. I would say Sage Intacct is a great tool, and others looking into using it should evaluate how big their company is and if it is worth the amount they have to pay because it is a very robust system. It is great for reporting and payments and very good overall. My rating for this review is not available.
My advice for others looking into using Sage Intacct is to have a strong internal engineering team to partner with and to be prepared for your budget around the general ledger to expand as you encounter improvements or bug fixes, along with maintaining a positive mindset to help you push through any circumstances. I would rate Sage Intacct an eight out of ten because I really enjoy the product overall, and while I am aware of the high budget customizations that can happen with the subscription packages, I do find the product enjoyable and recognize there is always room for improvement, which is why it is not a perfect score, but it reflects my confidence based on my familiarity with it.

When using Sage Intacct compared to QuickBooks, I may not have exact data on how much time was saved, but I would say it is much better because in QuickBooks, if I need to open any option, it takes time to load. It is not very fast in handling multiple or large sets of data, but Sage is useful. My advice to others looking into using Sage Intacct is that if you have a large set of data, or not exactly large but a medium set of data, you should consider Sage Intacct. However, if you are looking for accounting software only for small needs, Sage may not be the right choice for you. Even for large sets of data where you want to link it to operations or inventory or CRM, Sage Intacct is not the right choice for you. But if your company is mid-size and you are heavily concentrated on accounting, Sage might be a better choice. I think Sage could learn a few things regarding AI or automation, which could really improve Sage Intacct, and I would love to see Sage auto-categorizing bank feeds or maybe auto-reconciling transactions, similar to how QuickBooks does. I would rate this product a 7 out of 10.
If you are looking to use Sage Intacct, my advice is to work within the systems and understand how they work appropriately—do not try to get creative; use it as it is built. I would rate this review as a seven.
My advice to others looking into using Sage Intacct is that if you haven't tried it, you should do so once, and you will feel the difference compared to the earlier software or solutions you are using right now. I would rate this product an eight out of ten.

My advice to new users would be to identify the things that are most important to you when you're evaluating the solution and seeing the demo. Identify the things that will have the most meaning to you as an alternative in Intacct. Try to make sure that you provide the salesperson with the information you want to see and spend a little bit of time thinking about it. Otherwise, they will just show you the basic functionality. Sage Intacct has issues just like any other system but it's a powerhouse and it delivers. It's fast and accurate. It has really great audit trails in it, which add so much value that the other systems don't have. Overall, I would rate it a nine out of ten. I'm very pleased with it.

Rating the solution depends on the budget. If you have the money, Sage Intacct could be a ten out of ten. If you don't have the money, it's more like five or five and a half. It can do a lot of integrations. Overall, I would rate the solution an eight out of ten. One of the things that would be advisable for medium to large organizations is to have a dedicated admin person for Sage Intacct. Somebody who knows the administration of the software, the ins and outs of how it works, and can train people, and be able to implement newer solutions, and be able to study problems in the organizations that can help streamline things.

The suitability of Sage Intacct depends on the industry you operate in. If your business is finance-focused, I wholeheartedly recommend it. However, for industries involving stock management, manufacturing, and other aspects, I'd suggest considering alternatives. The software is quite user-friendly and accessible, as long as you are comfortable navigating web-based applications. Help resources, including manuals, are readily available, and pressing F1 can provide on-the-spot assistance. In terms of a rating, I would give Sage Intacct a seven out of ten.
Before choosing this solution, I advise you to understand the product well. Don't take it lightly when they offer a couple of days of training in the beginning. Listen to everything very carefully. When working with the implementation company, be more involved in understanding how to set up the system because you may have something like an architecture in mind. There are a lot of online resources for Sage Intacct to help you learn about it. The better You understand the tool, the more it will give back to you. I rate Sage Intacct a ten out of ten.

I would strongly recommend any entity that has a need for software that is easily implementable and that's already structured to use the services. It covers a vast range of capabilities and it is something that's implementable in an organization without too much of a technical price because they offer the services that assist them. It's something that should be implemented for an organization. There are not too many negatives that I personally saw within implementations. I don't really have anything bad to say. In the next release, I would like to see greater integration with the RPA software that's been created. I think that's something that can be quite interesting because it will also enable organizations to make bigger changes in certain circles. That can be interesting, but that's something for the future to consider. I was quite happy, personally, with the software that we used. I never encountered any problems that I saw as detrimental, so I'd rate it a nine out of ten because I am personally satisfied with it.
