Wipfli to Sponsor Exhibit and Present at Sage Intacct Advantage 2018
As we enter the home stretch of 2018, one big event we look forward to is Sage Intacct Advantage. This annual conference shows users and executives how to take the product to the next level, help prospects to understand what it's like to be part of the Sage Intacct community and help partners improve their work with the vendor. We are proud to be included in this annual event to connect with clients for five exciting days this October.
Sage Intacct Advantage 2018 Heads to the Music City
Be a part of one of the largest cloud accounting events of the year. As the Sage Intacct community continues to grow, the event has grown alongside it, increasing in the number of attendees, sponsors, partners and analysts looking to learn more about the leader in cloud accounting. From informative sessions to keynotes, attendees will learn about the product, network with peers and even give back to the community throughout the week.
This year's event, once again expected to be the largest Sage Intacct conference, will land in the Music City at the Gaylord Opryland Resort and Convention Center. From October 22-26, everyone from accounting staff to CFOs will get the opportunity to learn and grow with Sage Intacct at one of the many training sessions or keynotes offered. Among the many events that will take place throughout the week are:
- Pre-Conference Training (October 22-23): Learn about everything from the basics (Sage Intacct Fundamentals) to advanced reporting skills (Financial Reporting and Dashboards, Advanced Reporting and Insights). Sage Intacct also includes a nonprofit track in its pre-conference training that will feature lessons on reporting and dashboards.
- CFO Summit (October 24): Chief Financial Officers are busy people, and with more midsized, large and global companies using Sage Intacct than ever, the CFO Summit expects to bring some of the best and the brightest finance heads together for a day of panels and workshops designed for the finance chief.
- Sessions, Panels, Keynotes and More: Much of the conference is built around the sessions and panels in which users and prospects can learn how to use the Sage Intacct platform more effectively. Throughout the week, users can register for the tracks most important to them to gain deeper insight into the way they can use the software to improve their business. See the entire lineup here.

NFP-110 — A Year Into Sage Intacct: A Look Back on Going Live in Four Months with Two Major Integrations
Eagle Hill School chose Sage Intacct but also had to integrate with existing customer data on another system, stand up a new student spending account system and allow parents to interact with a customer-friendly billing system. With less than four months until the start of school, they made the decision to go live before students arrived in September. They will reflect on what they learned and what they would do differently, but they've never looked back. Choosing Sage Intacct as an open platform was critical to their success.
