Best Accounting Software for Multi-Entity Businesses in 2026
Seven platforms built to run one ledger across several entities, compared on the two vendors that publish a per-user price and the five that only quote, checked on vendor pages in September 2026.
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central is the one native multi-entity ledger with a public price: Essentials runs $80 a user a month and Premium $110, both billed yearly. NetSuite OneWorld, Sage Intacct, Acumatica, Rillet and Campfire all handle intercompany eliminations and multi-currency consolidation, and all five are quote-only.
QuickBooks Enterprise adds multi-company management on Gold at $2,210 a year and intercompany transactions on Platinum at $2,717, but it runs separate company files, not one consolidated ledger.

- 7 tools compared: NetSuite OneWorld, Sage Intacct, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, Acumatica, Rillet, Campfire, QuickBooks Enterprise
- Sage Intacct (best for: Finance teams past QuickBooks that want dimensional reporting across entities without a full ERP rebuild): Quote-only; Sage Intacct publishes no list price
- Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central (best for: Microsoft shops that want a published per-user multi-entity price instead of a sales call): From $80/user/mo (Essentials) to $110/user/mo (Premium), billed yearly; Team Members $8/user/mo
- Acumatica (best for: Groups adding headcount across entities that want unlimited users instead of a per-seat multi-entity bill): Quote-only; priced by application and usage, not per user; no figure published
Seven vendors claim they handle multi-entity accounting. Two of them, Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central and QuickBooks Enterprise, will actually show a price before a sales call. The other five, NetSuite OneWorld, Sage Intacct, Acumatica, Rillet and Campfire, keep every dollar figure behind a demo request. CFOpresso data: Toolradar, the software directory we run, tracks 266 accounting tools as of September 2026, and only those two publish a price anywhere on their own site (toolradar.com/best/accounting).
This is a narrower question than our general accounting software guide: you already run more than one entity, or you will soon, and you need eliminations and consolidated statements, not a bigger invoicing tool. It is also a different question from our financial consolidation tools guide, which covers OneStream, Oracle FCCS, CCH Tagetik, Prophix and Cube, the statutory close engines a controller bolts onto an existing ledger. The seven tools below are the ledger itself, built multi-entity from the ground up.

Pricing read from each vendor's own pricing page, checked Sep 2026. 5 of 7 sell by quote only and publish no price; those entries say so rather than estimating.
NetSuite OneWorld
The multi-subsidiary module inside NetSuite ERP: real-time consolidation across 190 currencies, no published price, and a sales call before you see a number.
- Pricing
- Quote-only; NetSuite publishes no list price for OneWorld
Best for: Groups running many legal entities across 190 currencies that want one ERP for close and operations
Pros
- Consolidates subsidiaries, currencies and tax rules in real time inside one ERP, not a bolt-on report
- Supports 220 countries and 27 languages, so a group adding a new entity is a configuration, not a new system
- One data model for financials, inventory and CRM cuts the reconciliation work a separate best-of-breed stack creates
Cons
- NetSuite puts no dollar figure anywhere on its own site. Budgeting starts with a sales call, not a page
- Implementation for a multi-subsidiary rollout commonly runs months with a certified partner, a cost this page cannot verify from NetSuite's own pages
Sage Intacct
Cloud financials built to consolidate hundreds of entities in minutes, by Sage's own claim, with no public price to check that claim against.
- Pricing
- Quote-only; Sage Intacct publishes no list price
Best for: Finance teams past QuickBooks that want dimensional reporting across entities without a full ERP rebuild
Pros
- Sage's own product page claims consolidation of hundreds of entities across currencies and geographies in minutes, not days
- A dimensional general ledger gives controllers drill-down reporting by entity, department or project without custom development
- Positioned a step below full ERP, so migration from QuickBooks or Xero is usually less disruptive than a NetSuite or Business Central move
Cons
- The pricing page answer to 'What is the price for Sage Intacct' is a single line: Contact us
- No native inventory or manufacturing depth, so product businesses still add a second system
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central
The one platform here with a real price tag, billed yearly per user, and it already handles multiple companies on its entry tier.
- Pricing
- From $80/user/mo (Essentials) to $110/user/mo (Premium), billed yearly; Team Members $8/user/mo
Best for: Microsoft shops that want a published per-user multi-entity price instead of a sales call
Pros
- Essentials already includes multiple companies and finance management; Premium's extra cost buys manufacturing and service order management, not more consolidation
- Team Members seats at $8 a user a month let read-only staff into the system without paying full price
- Runs inside the Microsoft 365 and Power BI stack most finance teams already have licenses for
Cons
- Deep elimination rules across many entities often lean on Power BI or a partner add-on more than NetSuite OneWorld's or Sage Intacct's native engines
- The published range is per user, so a 15-person finance and ops team lands between $1,200 and $1,650 a month before add-ons
Acumatica
Acumatica prices by application and transaction volume, not seats, and lists Multi-Entity and Intercompany Accounting as a named module with no dollar figure attached.
- Pricing
- Quote-only; priced by application and usage, not per user; no figure published
Best for: Groups adding headcount across entities that want unlimited users instead of a per-seat multi-entity bill
Pros
- Unlimited users on every deployment means adding staff across new entities never adds a per-seat line
- Multi-Entity and Intercompany Accounting ships as its own named module, not a workaround bolted onto single-entity accounting
- Deployment choice of cloud, private cloud or on-premises suits groups with data residency rules tied to specific entities
Cons
- Acumatica's own pricing page states the model, applications, usage and license, but not one dollar figure
- A resource-and-transaction pricing model is harder to budget from the outside than a flat per-user fee
Rillet
A newer general ledger built around multi-entity and accounting consolidation from the start, with every entity in one place and no public price yet.
- Pricing
- Quote-only; Rillet publishes no list price
Best for: Venture-backed companies with several subsidiaries that want a modern general ledger built multi-entity from day one
Pros
- Multi-entity and accounting consolidation is a first-class feature, not an add-on module retrofitted onto a single-entity core
- Built cloud-native, so it skips the desktop-era architecture legacy platforms like QuickBooks Enterprise still carry
- A newer codebase means faster shipping of close automation than the slower release cycle of an enterprise incumbent
Cons
- No pricing page states a dollar figure. Every quote starts with a demo
- Far shorter track record than NetSuite, Sage Intacct or Business Central, so implementation partners and community answers are thinner
Campfire
Campfire's own site claims unlimited entities and 180+ currencies, consolidated without switching instances, and asks for a demo before it shows a price.
- Pricing
- Quote-only; Campfire publishes no list price
Best for: Finance teams managing subsidiaries across many currencies who want one login instead of one instance per entity
Pros
- Campfire's site claims unlimited entities and consolidation across subsidiaries without logging in and out of separate instances
- Support for more than 180 currencies covers a global group that a US-only tool would not
- Built for the close, with global compliance support named directly on the product page
Cons
- No pricing page exists. The only path to a number is a demo request
- A young platform means less third-party documentation and fewer implementation partners to compare notes with
QuickBooks Enterprise
Multi-company management starts on the cheapest tier here; intercompany transactions arrive one plan up, still as separate company files, not a single ledger.
- Pricing
- Gold $2,210/yr, Platinum $2,717/yr, Diamond $5,363/yr (1 user; Diamond is monthly-only)
Best for: Small multi-entity groups on a budget that will manage separate company files, not one consolidated ledger
Pros
- Gold is the cheapest real price on this list for a business running more than one company file
- Platinum at $2,717 a year adds intercompany transactions, tracked from one dashboard even though the books stay in separate files
- The QuickBooks ecosystem of bookkeepers and apps is the deepest of any tool here, useful when hiring for the role
Cons
- This is multi-company management, not multi-entity consolidation: each entity is still its own file with no automatic elimination
- Diamond only sells on a monthly payment plan at $5,363 a year equivalent, with no annual-prepay option published
What it is
Multi-entity accounting software runs one general ledger across several legal entities, subsidiaries or business units, then automates intercompany eliminations, currency translation and consolidated reporting so a controller is not stitching spreadsheets together every close. Toolradar's guide to the same category ranks these tools from a software-buyer angle; this page is written for the finance leader who owns the close, not the IT buyer who owns the license.
Why it matters
A five-entity group running QuickBooks Online or another single-entity tool usually means five subscriptions, five exports and one analyst who spends close week reconciling intercompany loans by hand. That is not a headcount problem forever. It becomes a control finding the moment an auditor or an investor asks how the consolidation actually happens.
The other reason this matters is cost shape, not only cost. Business Central is the one platform on this page with a predictable per-user price. NetSuite OneWorld, reviewed in depth in our NetSuite review and our NetSuite alternatives guide, and Sage Intacct, covered in our Sage Intacct review, are quote-only. The number a CFO puts in next year's budget is an estimate until procurement finishes, and it usually lands well above a per-seat SMB tool.
Key features to look for
Pricing
Methodology: every price on this page was checked on the vendor's own pricing page, in USD, in September 2026, with no third-party estimates.
Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central's tiers, checked on microsoft.com/en-us/dynamics-365/products/business-central/pricing, are in the summary table above, billed yearly; Premium's extra cost over Essentials buys manufacturing and service order management, not more consolidation depth.
QuickBooks Enterprise's Gold, Platinum and Diamond tiers, checked on quickbooks.intuit.com/desktop/enterprise/pricing, are for one user, with Diamond sold only on a monthly payment plan.
The other five vendors publish no dollar figure anywhere on their own sites: NetSuite OneWorld (netsuite.com/portal/products/global-business-management.shtml), Sage Intacct (sage.com/en-us/products/sage-intacct), Acumatica (acumatica.com/pricing), Rillet (rillet.com/pricing) and Campfire (campfire.ai).
Sage's own pricing page answers its own question, 'What is the price for Sage Intacct', with two words: Contact us.
| Plan | Price | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| NetSuite OneWorld | Custom quote | No published price anywhere on netsuite.com; a sales call is the only path to a number |
| Sage Intacct | Custom quote | Sage's own pricing page answers the price question with 'Contact us' |
| Business Central Essentials | $80/user/mo | Billed yearly; includes multiple companies, finance management, sales and inventory |
| Business Central Premium | $110/user/mo | Billed yearly; adds manufacturing and service order management only |
| Business Central Team Members | $8/user/mo | Billed yearly; read-only and light-task seats |
| Acumatica | Custom quote | Priced by application and usage, not per user; users are unlimited |
| Rillet | Custom quote | No dollar figure published on the pricing page; a demo is required |
| Campfire | Custom quote | No pricing page exists; request a demo for a number |
| QuickBooks Enterprise Gold | $2,210/yr | 1 user, annual subscription; adds multi-company management |
| QuickBooks Enterprise Platinum | $2,717/yr | 1 user, annual subscription; adds intercompany transactions |
| QuickBooks Enterprise Diamond | $5,363/yr | 1 user; monthly payment plan only, no annual option |
The bottom line
If the group is complex and growing, NetSuite OneWorld or Sage Intacct are the safer long-term picks. Both are covered in more depth in our NetSuite review, our NetSuite alternatives guide and our Sage Intacct review, and neither will show a price without a sales call.
If the team wants a published number today, Business Central is the only platform here that answers the pricing question on its own site. Acumatica fits a group adding headcount fast, since users are unlimited even without a public price. Rillet and Campfire are the ones to shortlist if the company is venture-backed and wants a ledger built multi-entity from day one, not retrofitted. QuickBooks Enterprise is the budget path on Gold, but remember it is separate company files, not one consolidated ledger. See our wider accounting software guide, our financial consolidation tools guide for statutory close engines, our AP automation guide and our cash flow forecasting guide for what sits next to the ledger. Toolradar tracks each of these vendors too: NetSuite, Sage Intacct, Acumatica and QuickBooks.
