EXECUTIVE SUMMARY & PRICING
Intacct was designed from the ground up to be a full-featured web-based business management program that includes full financial capabilities, along with powerful tools and strong integrations between the modules for sales, inventory, purchasing, ecommerce, CRM, logistics and other areas. The system provides great user-customization options and dashboards that bring the most important data directly to the front, while still enabling power users to drill down into transactional details and generate flexible reporting output. The system is best suited to small and mid-sized enterprises that have outgrown an off-the-shelf program, have multi-location needs and especially those in service industries. Pricing for the business version is $400 per month for a power user with access to all program modules. Users with limited access rights can be added for a lower per-user monthly charge.
