Association of College Unions International - United States

Sage Intacct is top of the class for educational nonprofit

Association of College Unions International (ACUI) increases efficiency by 35% thanks to Sage Intacct’s automation of manual workflows

Cultivating business-minded accountability at 100-year-old nonprofit

In a bid to increase the business rigor of the Association of College Unions International (ACUI), the finance team wanted better visibility into costs, profitability, and budget variance than was possible with its existing on-premises accounting system. They decided to seek out a cloud-based solution with a modern interface and ongoing support.

Sage Intacct’s reputation of success with other associations, its flexible chart of accounts, and its seamless integration capabilities set it apart from other vendors.

Productivity gains ensure rapid software payback

Sage Intacct partner Maner Costerisan helped ACUI import its financial data, integrate the system with Nexonia’s expense management add-on, and be up and running in under 10 weeks. The association has greatly improved its accounts receivables process, saving the finance team a lot of time they previously spent manually processing payments and checking reconciliations.

Since modernizing and streamlining all of our financial processes with Sage Intacct, our team’s overall efficiency has improved by around 35%.

Financial visibility drives profitability improvements

Sage Intacct’s general ledger uses dimensions that capture the business context of each transaction, so ACUI can analyze performance by various organizational drivers without having to manage a complex chart of accounts. This makes it easy for anyone to get useful information directly from Sage Intacct without having to manipulate data in Excel or ask the finance team for help.

Our CEO and directors recognize how valuable Sage Intacct’s real-time dashboards are to the business; they increase our credibility and help better manage daily operations.
