Is your finance system working for you – or around you?

The Finance System Question Most Growing Teams Avoid Asking:

Is your finance system working for you – or around you?

As organisations evolve, finance requirements rarely stand still – yet the systems supporting them often do. What once felt fit for purpose can become increasingly restrictive as complexity grows. At DB Computer Solutions, we help organisations across Ireland confront that question early and constructively. Through solutions like Sage Intacct, we support finance teams in moving toward a cloud-based financial management platform built to deliver clearer visibility, stronger reporting, and financial control that scales with the organisation – rather than holding it in place.

Processes that once felt manageable can become harder to maintain. Reporting takes longer. Visibility becomes fragmented. Finance teams spend more time reconciling information than analysing it.

Sage Intacct is a cloud-based financial management solution designed for growing and mid-sized organisations that need greater control, automation, and insight across their finance function.

This article explains what Sage Intacct is, what it does, and which industries it is best suited for, helping Irish organisations evaluate whether it could be the right financial management platform for their business.

What Is Sage Intacct?

Sage Intacct is a cloud-native financial management platform focused exclusively on finance.

It provides organisations with tools to manage core financial processes, including:

  • General ledger
  • Accounts payable and receivable
  • Cash management
  • Budgeting and planning
  • Financial reporting and consolidation

Unlike entry-level accounting software, Sage Intacct is designed to support organisations with increasing transaction volumes, multiple entities, and more complex reporting requirements.

Because it is cloud-based, Sage Intacct offers secure access from anywhere and benefits from automatic updates, allowing finance teams to work with current functionality without manual upgrades.

What Does Sage Intacct Do?

At its core, Sage Intacct centralises financial data and automates key finance workflows, reducing reliance on manual processes and disconnected systems.

Key capabilities include:

  • Core financial management across GL, AP, AR, and cash
  • Real-time dashboards and reporting
  • Multi-entity and multi-currency consolidation
  • Dimensional accounting for deeper financial insight
  • Workflow automation to improve efficiency and accuracy
  • Integration capabilities via APIs

These capabilities support finance teams in moving away from spreadsheet-heavy processes and toward more timely, accurate financial insight.

Which Organisations Is Sage Intacct Best Suited For?

Sage Intacct is used across a range of sectors where financial complexity, visibility, and governance are critical.

At DB Computer Solutions, we most commonly support organisations in the following verticals.

Finance-Led Organisations and Financial Services

For organisations seeking a finance-first ERP solution, Sage Intacct provides advanced financial management without the operational complexity of a full manufacturing or distribution ERP.

It is particularly suited to organisations that require:

  • Strong financial consolidation
  • Multi-entity and multi-currency reporting
  • Clear audit trails and financial governance

This makes Sage Intacct a practical option for finance-led organisations and firms operating within the financial services ecosystem.

Healthcare Organisations

Healthcare organisations often manage multiple locations, complex billing processes, and strict reporting requirements.

Sage Intacct supports healthcare finance teams by enabling:

  • Real-time visibility across locations
  • Automated procure-to-pay workflows
  • Multi-entity financial consolidation
  • Detailed financial reporting

This allows healthcare organisations to maintain financial control while supporting operational delivery and growth.

Not-for-Profit Organisations

Transparency, accountability, and accurate reporting are essential for not-for-profit organisations.

Sage Intacct supports non-profits through:

  • Fund and grant accounting
  • Clear tracking of restricted and unrestricted funds
  • Customisable financial reporting
  • Multi-entity and global consolidation

These capabilities help organisations meet reporting obligations while improving internal financial oversight.

Software as a Service (SaaS) Businesses

SaaS organisations often manage recurring revenue models, subscription billing, and revenue recognition requirements.

Sage Intacct supports SaaS finance teams by:

  • Managing subscription billing scenarios
  • Supporting compliant revenue recognition
  • Providing real-time financial visibility
  • Scaling alongside business growth

This makes Sage Intacct suitable for SaaS organisations operating in Ireland and internationally.

Professional Services Organisations

Professional services firms require strong visibility into project performance, billing, and profitability.

Sage Intacct supports professional services organisations through:

  • Project accounting and billing
  • Time and expense management
  • Real-time reporting on financial and project performance
  • Multi-entity and multi-currency financial management

This enables service-based organisations to maintain control as they scale.
