    We are long-term users of the B2W system. We believe it is the best choice for paving contractors. It is easy to learn and continues to offer even deeper ability as estimating prowess grows. The system allows us to update quotes that were given in the past and to stay on top of our costs as changes occur, so our data is up to date and accurate. Know your costs and you can make money!

    MIP Fund Accounting works very well for general fundraising. The form creation process is easy and allows you to set parameters and add fees, quantities, images, etc. This process is smooth on the customer (forward-facing) side as well. Reports are generated once the transactions have gone through, making tracking and reconciliation with accounting easy.

    Pros
    Trimble
    • Allows management to update costs for each individual item, equipment, labor, PR taxes, benefits, materials, etc.
    • Allows management to see how aggressive estimators have built an estimate to evaluate risk.
    • Allows monthly changes in fuel prices and liquid asphalt to quickly update the system for all.
    • Allows management to override margins for overhead and profit to match backlog and need for work versus budget.

    Cons
    Trimble
    • We request changes to the software as issues crop up and the B2W process changes as needed.
    • A time-out function should be added to knock dormant users offline and allow other users access to the limited number of licenses the company owns.

    • We had a lot of issues with the customer set up. With the way the integration worked, we had 3-4 owners on a job, when it should have just been one. We were paying a large amount on postage. We sent one GC 9 monthly notices, in one month.
    • I've been trying to get an understanding of what areas in Levelset we AREN'T using and it's been difficult to get an answer. I know we are missing projected revenue and that is a pretty big piece.

    • With the payroll process, if there is an error in sending the stubs through email, there is no option to resend without a restore. That really needs to change.
    • Being able to void encumbrance at the same time as a PO would be an incredible time saver.
    • When processing W2 the system deletes info.

    I give MIP a 10 because Our organization use MIP Fund Accounting ever since I've been there and that's been for over 20 plus years for all of our accounting and payroll. MIP has stayed on the cutting edge of technology, ever evolving to meet the needs of the times, especially post pandemic, while many are working remotely! MIP support staff are very knowledgeable and efficient. Even new users can get up to speed quickly with MIP Fund Accounting.

    All of the information is there at your fingertips. If I think it's odd that we are submitting a lien on a job, there is an information button that will tell me exactly why and 99.9% of the time, I was misunderstanding something and Levelset was right.

    I have used this system for about 12 years now and I still learning how to use it. It always surprises me how there is another report to learn to achieve my data reporting goals. It is great to have a system that you have used long enough to feel comfortable with but also a system that allows you to learn new ways to report and enter data into the system

    I have rarely encountered any issues accessing MIP Fund Accounting over the years. On the rare occasions when availability was interrupted, the reasons were always found in-house when using the on-premises version. Since we have migrated to the MIP cloud, we have had no issues with availability. Any maintenance or updates are always communicated to us and are usually done outside of business hours.

    We have 18 programs and the CFO has the ability through MIP Fund Accounting to generate separate and/or collective reporting for those programs. Each program has its own grant or funding source. Each has its own reporting guidelines that must be met so the ability to run reporting separately or collectively is a plus.

    I have not reached out to MIP for technical support; however, their website offers great help resources so I can solve an issue on my own. Another team member reached out to MIP for support and was helped quickly. The transition process took longer than expected due to a lag in communication.

    There are no specifics on what happens if you make one choice or another to know which is the best selection. This is true for JVs and AP. In training we were not given specifics of what happens when one possibility is selected over another.

    Denise O'Malley provided training for the HR module when we added it to our system. Denise also gave us a demo of the EWS module which we were able to see that it would not meet our needs. She was very kind about and understanding regarding the functions we needed with a time clock system.

    Don't waste your time with MIP. There are plenty of other softwares out there that will do the job better. Do your homework. Get references from actual users. Make sure that what you choose will truly integrate. Make sure that there is local support. Get training. You will be glad that you passed this one by. Trust me.

    Levelset is a Procore software, but we did consider it AFTER we got Levelset. We implemented Procore on our project side and chose to stay with Levelset. It's easy to set up, make changes, and understand.

    I've utilized other ERP accounting software like Infor, NetSuite, and MS Dynamics, to name a few. MIP Fund Accounting offers flexibility and room for growth while not being overly heavy on your team to maintain it. And, we're now learning more about the add-on's and more advanced capabilities to leverage with our team.

    The flexibility to create certain features are helpful and are designed to be easier on MIP Accounting Cloud. It has been easier than the MIP Accounting classic version. I may have not fully utilized the software to deploy across multiple departments other than generating revenue reports or expenses. As well as developing budget worksheets for our departments. Which are great as it is, but have not gone farther than that.

    • We converted to the cloud version a few years ago to reduce our dependency on a dedicated internal IT server which needed to be replaced. The cost of the product switched to a monthly fee which increased cost somewhat but probably is matched with IT savings over time in doing upgrades.
    • We have an efficient team of two people doing the transactional work, so we don't really have much incentive to further automate our processes. And with the turnover in the CFO position we have had, has helped us maintain consistency in our processing.
    • Once I learned how to memorize and recall transactions it was a huge timesaver and increased the accuracy and consistency of our entry.
    • The cost of training is sometimes prohibitive. Example is my accounting clerk MIGHT benefit from additional training but at about $200 for a lot of the courses, it is more than we have budgeted.
