Sage Intacct’s accounting software was built in the cloud which allows for a seamless experience, integrations with the systems you already use and prefer, and assurance that you’ll always be on the latest version with automated upgrades. Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT began as an on-premises software solution (Financial Edge by Blackbaud), so different hosted technologies have been pieced together over the years. This results in inconsistent deployments, challenging upgrades, and difficult and expensive integrations.
