MIP Fund works well such as one competitor I have used before. Adapting to other online program software systems is the only thing I can think of that MIP could do better. But primarily as a non-profit with little time on hand and always overworked, a simpler software program …
I prefer MIP to the other software I have been exposed to based on cost, ease of use, and functionality. I have tried Blackbaud about 14 years ago and was not impressed as it was hard to use and not intuitive at all. As for quickbooks, I have not used that program in mane …
We are non-profit organization. We provide housing for underserved people and social services for homeless population with mental illnesses. We have a few different programs, specifically for properties that belong to the organization. It is extremely important that we can …
Compared to other software I've used, MIP is by far the most user friendly and easiest to operate that've I've seen. Reports are easy to run, and I love being able to narrow down the information to only pull specific items.

MIP combines the level or functionality that is needed for complex non profits, NGO's with ease of use of intuitive software. MIP provides the ability to customize as much or as little as needed for Fund/ Grant Accounting. You need to be able to produce reports for Program …
After evaluating about 10 other accounting software alternatives; MIP was chosen due to the cost effectiveness; not having to host in the cloud; being able to maintain without having to hire consultants; and the product itself met our required needs.
This software was built for the fund accounting needs of non-profit organizations. This is a very small market compared to normal accounting needs, so there is not a lot of software out there that does this, and even fewer that do it as well.
MIP is much more robust than Quickbooks or other out of the box accounting solutions. Yes, it is much more expensive and you do pay by the user so fees do grow considerably.
