Why should you switch from Sage Intacct to NetSuite?
Why should you switch from Quickbooks to NetSuite?
NetSuite is a modern solution to your business needs. We are one company across software, sales, support and services.

Why You Should Pick NetSuite
NetSuite Grows With You
NetSuite users can add native payroll, inventory management, CRM, ecommerce or select from extensive partner network, or choose between SOAP, REST, & ODBC type integrations. Domestic entities and additional segments are free.
NetSuite Support is Offered 24/7 Worldwide
Intacct support is only available 6am – 6pm PST. NetSuite has a dedicated AMO group, specialized in specific vertical expertise along with Advanced Customer Support (ACS) offerings. Intacct has a limited account management organization and no form of advanced support.
Head Start with SuiteSuccess
Intacct relies on the standard SaaS approach to building software. NetSuite delivers industry-specific best practices that minimize risks and accelerate ROI.
Native Reporting & Business Intelligence
Queries are highly customizable, and users can even perform a JOIN to all records that are tied to that record within NetSuite’s relational schema.
NetSuite is built for Multi-Subsidiary Companies
NetSuite provides real-time visibility into consolidated financials across all subsidiaries. In Intacct, some features like generating project invoices, utilizing recurring transactions, and credit card transactions may still need manual intervention at the entity level.
Easy to Search
A global search capability like Google allows for quick and easy access to anything in the database (this ability is a result of NetSuite’s unified database).
NetSuite is a long-term solution that empowers your business. Ideal prospect for NetSuite is:
- ▪︎ Multi-national
- ▪︎ High growth / IPO aspirations
- ▪︎ CRM
- ▪︎ HCM or Payroll
- ▪︎ Ecommerce
Moreover, NetSuite SuiteSuccess is the best of all worlds. You buy just what you need today. You add what you want tomorrow.

We partner with an expert whose primary purpose is to maintain a solid integration between both systems.
