How does Sage Intacct Construction compare to other construction financial software vendors?

Sage is the #1 provider of construction financial management solutions according to the JBKnowledge Construction Technology Report and Sage Intacct is the only financial management solution endorsed by the AICPA, an organization that is trusted by accounting leaders worldwide. Our true cloud solution can be tailored to meet the needs of small businesses and large complex organizations. Beyond our financial management excellence, Sage Intacct Construction integrates with the larger ecosystem of construction-specific solutions. In today’s environment of high-quality vendors, Sage Intacct Construction is the core financial system at the heart of a construction firm’s technology stack.

Does Sage Intacct Construction integrate with my other construction-specific applications?

Absolutely. With Sage Intacct, you have the flexibility to choose the best product for your company. With our power of choice strategy, you pay for what you need, you keep the existing tools and systems that work well in your organization, and you integrate the systems to create the right workflows to support your business needs. Avoid the pitfalls of buying into a single-vendor suite, where you may not be getting the best solution, you are dependent on a single provider, and you risk vendor lock-in with a company that may require the purchase of more functionality than you really need.

We focus on delivering the best financial management solution for even the most demanding construction finance professionals. Our approach is to be the financial management solution that allows you to integrate best-of-breed construction operational solutions you are using today and may use in the future. In fact, over 75% of our customers have integrated Sage Intacct with at least two systems.
