Multi-entity does not always mean mid-market Sage
Two LLCs with simple books differ from complex consolidations and intercompany eliminations.
Buy the complexity you have this year, not the org chart you might have in five.
Sage Intacct often wins the heavy consolidation case — validate honestly.
Where Biznsbook still helps multi-entity SMBs
Operational companies still need inventory, invoicing, and a trustworthy GL.
Modular SaaS can run an entity’s ops while finance keeps Sage for group reporting — if dual systems are staffed.
Prefer one system of record when possible; dual stacks need owners.
Pricing honesty
Biznsbook publishes Starter $19, Pro $39, and Business $89 with optional add-ons around $5. Confirm competitor pricing on the vendor site — CONFIRM BEFORE PUBLISH.
Include implementation and add-on fees when modeling Sage total cost.
