Trusted cloud accounting with Sage Intacct

What does cloud based mean?


A cloud-based accounting system is software hosted on remote servers rather than installed on a company’s own hardware. This means all data, updates, backups, and security are managed online by the software provider. For Sage Intacct the system is hosted by Sage but implementations are done by a leading certified Sage partner such as itas Solutions.

With Sage Intacct, businesses do not need to:

  • Invest in expensive servers and backup hardware
  • Maintain physical accounting servers
  • Install software updates manually
  • Worry about local data backups
  • Depend on office-based systems for access
