Are you still tethered to the office because of your on-premise ERP legacy solution? What will it take for you to finally realize all the benefits of a cloud solution like Sage Intacct?
Cloud-based software is software hosted somewhere offsite on the software provider’s server and accessed through your internet connection. The cloud differs from locally hosted software by affording users ready access from anywhere, making it considerably more versatile for people who perform business processes outside the office.
Business technology evolves rapidly, but too many companies put off upgrading their systems until something forces their hand. Why wait until your onsite system costs you in lost time, lost sales, or worse? New technology brings several advantages that can help you streamline operations, boost productivity, or deliver a competitive edge.
With improved visibility through real-time reporting and intuitive dashboards, Sage Intacct delivers true business process automation in quote-to-cash, purchase to payment, consolidations, and more.
Here’s what else you get when you move to the cloud with Sage Intacct:
Mobility
Today’s businesses need a level of mobility not offered by many legacy ERP systems. More gets done out from behind the confines of the office, but legacy systems can’t handle expanding accessibility needs. Your competitor has a distinct advantage if their staff can be productive on the go while your team is restricted to their desk.
Sage Intacct’s ability to keep your business moving on mobile devices anywhere, anytime, helps you stay competitive and meet your customer demands from a more responsive sales team.
Easy Integrations
Sage Intacct has extensive integrations features that cut down on costly manual entry time, and significantly reduce user error incidence, compromising the data. By integrating easily with other modern applications, both on-premise and cloud-based, your teams are more productive and get a more intuitive and secure user experience while maintaining flexibility unparalleled by other ERP and accounting systems.
As a result, your teams can spend less time on data entry and more on mission-essential tasks that advance your business goals and you get to realize your implementation return on investment sooner.
Flexibility
Many legacy ERP systems lack the flexibility needed for day-to-day tasks while supporting your business growth. As your business evolves and continues to grow, it will require new solutions requiring your software to develop alongside.
Sage Intacct grows as you grow. For example, you can add or remove users to the system as you expand without needing additional and expensive hardware. A Cloud-based ERP system like Intacct reduces deployment times since the necessary cloud infrastructure exists offsite.
Ease of Adoption
Cloud-based ERP solutions are smoother to install and go live over on-prem ERP solutions, too. With Sage Intacct, you save time and money over legacy systems that lack an intuitive user interface that is easy to learn and control. Without an intuitive user experience (UX), staff members can easily get lost, wasting time attempting to find essential functions. This affects not only daily productivity but also employee satisfaction. Many on-premise systems lack functionality and require tedious workarounds, forcing users to abandon the system for manual processes altogether.
Intacct presents features in a customizable format that allows your teams to be most productive. With configurable dashboards and user-friendly tools, users get a personalized and interactive experience, including drag-and-drop functionality.
Sage Intacct comes with modern and intuitive user interfaces with much less technical buy-in than on-prem systems. This allows facilities to save money on training hours, IT hours/personnel, servers, and more.
Application & Data Security
If you’ve ever worried about data loss or breaches with your outdated legacy system, moving to the cloud may help you get a better night’s sleep. Locally hosted software is typically secured and backed up by measures implemented within your IT department. Businesses often fall short with in-house data security and redundancy measures with the potential for significant issues to crop up.
With Sage Intacct, all your accounting and business data is automatically backed up and secured behind layers of enterprise-level encryption, designed to prevent unauthorized programs, systems, and users from gaining access or control of your processes, resources, and data with security features built-in. Intacct is built on the highly reliable Oracle database infrastructure, helping to ensure that the right people get the right level of access any time of day, every day of the year.
