Brentwood Recovery Home Efficiently Drives Its Mission With Sage Intacct

Located in Windsor, Ontario, Canada, Brentwood Recovery Home provides lifelong, compassionate, and evidence-informed treatment for people seeking recovery from alcohol and drug misuse. The registered charity ensures everyone gets the help they need.

Brentwood also offers ongoing, community-based support for residents’ families. Brentwood Alumni pay it forward by actively participating in incoming individuals’ recoveries as part of a lived-experience fellowship.

The Challenge

Non-profit organizations like Brentwood must focus on mission success while demonstrating accountability and transparency.

Powerful analytics and real-time reporting are critical—and Sage 50, Brentwood’s accounting system, couldn’t deliver.

Team members dumped canned reports from Sage 50 into Excel, then wasted hours on data manipulation.

Mandatory reporting to a government agency required a cumbersome spreadsheet and weeks of manual effort.

And when a check needed a signature, someone had to travel to the office to sign it in person.

Brentwood needed a modern solution with specialized non-profit accounting, tracking, and reporting functionality—at a price that doesn’t break the bank.

The Solution

Enter Sage Intacct, a cloud-native financial management solution that’s quick to implement, easy to use, and affordable.

Moving to Intacct was a no-brainer for Brentwood, as was the organization’s decision to partner with Vision33, an expert in Intacct and enterprise resource planning (ERP) design, implementation, and support.

The Result

Thanks to Intacct, spreadsheets are a thing of the past. Real-time data and customized reports are just a few clicks away.

And because Intacct is a cloud solution, it’s available anytime, anywhere, from any device. Check signers no longer visit the office—they sign online at their convenience.

Now that Brentwood has eliminated manual processes and graduated to cloud financials, the organization can more efficiently achieve its vision of transforming lives and communities through compassion, hope, recovery, and service.
