What Is Sage Intacct Also Known As?

Businesses looking for modern cloud accounting software often come across Sage Intacct. However, many people search for other names for the software, such as Intacct, and Sage Intacct ERP.

What Is Sage Intacct Also Called?


Sage Intacct is commonly known by several names, including:

  • Intacct – The software's original name before Sage acquired the company.
  • Sage Intacct Accounting Software – A common formal reference used in business and technology discussions.
  • Sage Cloud Accounting Platform – An informal description highlighting its cloud-based functionality.
  • Intacct ERP Accounting Solution – A term sometimes used when discussing its financial management capabilities within broader ERP environments.
  • Intact – many people use a shorter name for the software.

Among these, Intacct remains the most widely recognised alternative name.

Why Was Intacct Renamed Sage Intacct?


In July 2017, Sage acquired Intacct to strengthen its cloud software portfolio. Rather than replacing the product, Sage integrated it into its business software ecosystem and renamed it Sage Intacct.

The rebranding allowed Sage to:

  • Expand its cloud accounting offerings.
  • Serve growing businesses with more advanced financial tools.
  • Combine Sage's global presence with Intacct's cloud expertise.
  • Improve integration opportunities across the Sage product family.

Despite the name change, the core platform, features, and cloud-first approach remained largely unchanged.
