What this episode covers
Founded in 1999, Sage Intacct was one of the earliest cloud accounting applications on the market — and now one of the most successful. That's why David and Blake were eager to sit down at Sage Intacct Advantage with Rob Reid, Chairman Mid-Market Solutions (formerly CEO of Intacct, prior to the Sage acquisition), and Kevin Cumley, Director of the Accountants Program. In this episode, we chat with Rob and Kevin about the growth opportunity for Sage and their accounting firm partners in the mid-market, the needs of mid-market businesses, why top accounting firms use Sage Intacct in their practices, and what it was like trying to convince accountants and their clients that cloud is secure back in the still early days of the internet.
