Intuitive and Feature-Rich—Helps Us Consolidate Systems
What do you like best about the product?
The system is intuitive and easy to navigate, which makes it simple to learn on my own. At the Sage conference, I discovered a lot of useful features that should replace some of the systems we’re currently using and help us consolidate more.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think there are still some industries where Sage isn’t particularly strong yet, so it’s not really designed for every industry. That said, for the specific industries it does support well, it can be very beneficial. I also wish the basic package included more features, instead of having to purchase additional features individually.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I feel like Sage is shifting from doing the work to reviewing it. I agree that AI will replace a lot of jobs, potentially almost all of them, but I think we’re reaching a point where AI should handle most of the “doing,” while humans focus more on reviewing.
Great for Tracking Bills, but a Bit Confusing for New Users
What do you like best about the product?
I like how it helps you keep track of your bills.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be confusing to a new user because the ui is a little messy in mu opinion. There's too much in your face so you don't know where to start.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps keep track of what bills are owed and if we have paid it. I also like how you can put notes for each bill.
Streamline the accounting close and invoicing, reducing manual work and errors
What do you like best about the product?
Streamline the financial closing, billing, and revenue recognition, reducing manual work and errors.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be costly for small businesses, and prices can increase significantly when renewing or upgrading licenses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dependence on spreadsheets (Excel), manual data entry, slow month-end closing processes, and inefficient billing.
Great Automations and Custom Reporting—AI AP Invoice Uploads Shine
What do you like best about the product?
The automations are great. Reporting is a breeze and customizable. I'm enjoying AI AP invoice uploads and email functions.
What do you dislike about the product?
When working with AP drafts that I've uploaded using AI upload or email, it would be nice to go directly to the next draft invoice. Once I submit an invoice, it brings me back to the list of drafts. It would be more seamless, similar to bank matching in the Cash Management module, if I can submit and go to the next one.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am able upload invoices automatically and submit them to the approvers. Before, I would print, hand the invoice to the mangers, they sign them, then hand back to me, I would key in all invoice details, post, and then go back and scan in the electronic copy of the invoice. With Sage Intacct, it zips right through all that workflow and keeps me moving efficiently.
Robust Reporting and Drill-Downs That Make Location Profitability Easy
What do you like best about the product?
Sage Intacct offers robust financial reporting that allows for accessible data and ease of drill-downs. The location and dimension reporting has been huge for our business in tracking profitability by location.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sage Intacct downsides are the additional costs needed for linking different applications and adding services.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sage Intacct is solving our prior visibility issue into profitability by location. This helps us to hold each location manager accountable for performance.
Sage Intacct: Scalable Financial Control with Powerful Dimensional Reporting
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Sage Intacct is how effectively it brings together financial control and scalability with perfect UI for teams across the world without being feeling overly rigid with reasonable pricing and return on investment, while the support team is also tremendous and readily available.
A few standout areas:
Dimensional accounting
This is probably the biggest differentiator. Instead of creating endless GL accounts, you can analyze transactions by dimensions like entity, department, project, customer, location, or employee. Reporting becomes dramatically cleaner and more flexible.
Strong multi-entity and consolidation capabilities
Intercompany accounting, currency handling, and entity-level reporting are much smoother compared to many mid-market ERPs. For growing international businesses, this is a huge unlock.
Reporting flexibility
Custom dashboards and real-time financial visibility are excellent. Finance teams can move closer to decision support rather than just transaction processing.
Open ecosystem and integrations
It integrates well with tools like Salesforce, payroll systems, expense platforms, and BI tools including Power BI and other FP&A tools. That makes it powerful for building finance automation stacks.
Cloud-native architecture
No heavy on-prem maintenance drama. Updates are smoother, accessibility is better, and remote finance operations become easier.
Audit trail and controls
The system maintains strong auditability and role-based controls, which is valuable from both governance and compliance perspectives. All the way, it is now going towards building AI landscape within Sage's existing capabilities for which I am really excited to look into.

What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike most about Sage Intacct is that sometimes it feels like an incredibly powerful finance engine wrapped inside workflows that still require too many clicks, workarounds, and consulting hours.
The biggest pain points I’ve seen repeatedly from finance teams and user reviews:
Heavy reliance on add-ons and consultants
Many advanced workflows, custom reporting needs, or operational capabilities require additional modules, partner support, or paid consulting. Costs can snowball faster than expected.
Some workflows feel unnecessarily rigid
Editing transactions, handling approvals, bank reconciliations, and intercompany processes can sometimes involve too many steps or reversals. Users frequently mention friction in day-to-day operational accounting.
Permissions and controls can become cumbersome
Strong controls are good for governance, but users sometimes feel basic tasks become overly permission-dependent.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's best suited for our business as we are operating in consulting services company spread across multiple countries in Asia and Americas. It enables us managing thousands of timesheets smoothly where we invoice them to customers while keeping in line all the existing operational accounting procedures with real time performance across all regions.
Massive upgrade on our previous Sage
What do you like best about the product?
I love the 'help on this page' option, there are many times I have been able find help with exactly what I need simply by looking here. Learning a new system takes time and this helps so much.
What do you dislike about the product?
You have to be exact with the supplier name or the invoice number you’re trying to locate. Even when using %first, it can still take a while to find what you’re looking for.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having the bank account feeds set up makes things much easier for us. We no longer need to log in to online banking and download transactions manually, which speeds up allocating our accounts.
Running a payment run is also much smoother and easier in Sage Intacct, and it has reduced the amount of time it takes.

Complex to Navigate, Impressive Scaling
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate Sage Intacct's ability to process large volumes of data, which is crucial as our company grows and our revenue increases. The consistent accuracy in billing our members from around the world is reassuring.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find Sage Intacct not very user-friendly. It feels like only a Sage expert can use it effectively. For example, using printed document templates for invoices is challenging. You have to find the correct merge field to use in Word documents, and there's no way to see how the invoice will look until you send out a test invoice. The initial setup was also terribly difficult, and we're still struggling with it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sage Intacct lets us split revenue and expenses into two accounting spheres and solves billing and dunning problems.
User-Friendly Solver Integration, But Setup Can Be Challenging
What do you like best about the product?
Easy integration with Solver and it's user-friendly to navigate.
What do you dislike about the product?
Setup is quite challenging; one example is the Bank Reconciliation automation setup. But again, it would be just me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I like the way how Sage has the flow for JE submission and review and approval flow which makes things easy to read, recall and reclassify.
Efficient Automation, But Support Access Needs Streamlining
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Sage Intacct has provided me with time savings and a simplified process. My team uses it to reconcile our books, and it makes it really easy to organize and report on our different divisions.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that there is a separate log in and separate portal for support tickets and help. It would be nice if it was natively in my Sage Intacct environment, or if my Sage Intacct credentials were the same as the credentials needed for support. The data migration and the learning curve took a few months and we are still trying to master it, but once it was set up and the automation was working, it got easier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Sage Intacct to automate invoicing and reconciliation, saving time and simplifying processes. It helps my team easily reconcile books and organize reports across divisions.
