Below are three guides that will help you identify the right accounting software for you and justify the migration to your executive team and board.

Halstatt is a family-owned investment firm that started from scratch but, with are now currently managing hundreds of millions of dollars worth of real estate, equity investments, and various businesses.

A few years ago, Halstatt had a unique opportunity to plan and execute upon an entirely new accounting infrastructure. The company needed to build a back office that included accounts payable, general ledger, and an entire finance department. The search was on for new accounting software.

Halstatt wanted to implement cloud-based accounting software because it offers speed and efficiency which are critical, no servers or IT team required and upgrades are seamless.

Halstatt had a clear vision of what the system needed to do and Sage Intacct met these requirements.

We hear family offices complaining about increasingly complex ownership and multi-entity structures, making it impossible to manage client assets, reporting and month-end close without burning out their accounting team or having to hire additional staff.

Did you know that Sage Intacct has become the ideal accounting software for single and multi-family offices and wealth managers? It's used to manage over $500 billion in assets.

Sage Intacct's popularity stems from being able to consolidate hundreds of entities with the click of a mouse (at month end or any time), automate inter-entity transactions, and monitor it all in real-time on custom dashboards without extra software or IT support – so you can leave QuickBooks, Dynamics GP and the spreadsheets behind and not have to hire additional accounting staff to manage more entities or clients.

And month-end can be complete in hours instead of days or weeks.
