I am able to create forecasting insights that help the business . It's also easy to navigate through, user friendly. I like the report creation capabilities as well.

"Small business friendly, not so great for mid-size institutions"
What do you like best about Sage Business Cloud Accounting?

In the age of AI, Pegg - the digital assistant that Sage provides slashes time and tediousness and helps you keep track of your transactions. Business owners / Exec Asst. / startup accountants can manage transactions on the fly. I really felt comfortable using it for a < 3m raised tech startup in tracking P&L and automating transactions. The interface is intuitive and worked like a charm on an iPad.

What do you dislike about Sage Business Cloud Accounting?

For newbie accountants or people used to Quickbooks, it can be a bit challenging initially. The dashboards are quite dissimilar so takes a bit of time getting used to. If you're used to traditional reporting system, this can be a new flair but nothing you can't pick up within weeks. The reporting tool isn't that sophisticated so if you're preparing it for audit purposes, might not be the best use of your time.

What problems is Sage Business Cloud Accounting solving and how is that benefiting you?

Just pure tracking of customer payments and outgoing supplier expenses for a tech startup. Nothing that crazy, just needed an accounting solution to show investors cash burn rates.

"Sage/Intacct"
What do you like best about Sage Business Cloud Accounting?

It is pretty intuitive to use, I think it is great for a mid size company. Used to work well as a smaller company but the faster growing and more information, the harder it is for Sage/Intacct. The reporting, company dimensions, etc are great.

What do you dislike about Sage Business Cloud Accounting?

There are many limitations to companies that have multiple locations.It is difficult to tell which entity has the fluctuations in balances, which makes it difficult to investigate. There are issues with SOX compliance (i.e Journal Entry approval workflow). We have not been able to use many of the modules that Sage/Intacct has in place, we've had to purchase other modules from outside which make reconciliation more difficult. Every issue we have with Intacct seems like we'd have to go the route of professional services or change products entirely.

What problems is Sage Business Cloud Accounting solving and how is that benefiting you?

Reporting once you have set up all your companies parameters are great.
