I think that MIP would be the choice regardless of the evaluation or selection process. I receive calls about our accounting software and if we would consider looking at their product, but we are happy with MIP and are not considering a switch.

The biggest part would be how can the software functions provide the necessary need for our organization to use. Previous person in position didn't have full experience and we realized how our organization will need more time invested in MIP to have it fully function to best support our needs.

I was not part of selecting MIP to use as the main accounting system for my organization. However, I do not see the company using a different accounting system any time soon. MIP is does a great job supporting our company's accounting, financial reporting and payroll needs.
The benefit of being able to process payroll and accounts payable in house it is great because it gives us more control for accuracy and to have our employees paid on time.

I cannot imagine going through that process again. When you have used a product for so long, the history within is hard to replicate. Just the fact that the company has stayed with it through all the changes over the years is a testimony to the product itself.

Not involved in this before, but if we were considering a new product would likely be asked to evaluate anything new that might be looked at.

I would likely test several other available products and compare usability and reporting capabilities to my experience with MIP Products. I would be interested only in a full service product which would include Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable, Bank Reconciliation, Financial Reporting, Electronic Transfer, Direct Deposit, all Payroll functions, Time and Attendance, Human Resources, and Fundraising and Donor reporting.

If I had to do it again, I would've paid much more attention at fleshing out what functionality we would like to get out of the new software system, rather than how well it integrated to the current system. Admittedly we were happy that our upgrade went smoothly, conversely I don't think we improved our use of the software as perhaps we could've. As a smaller organization, we were sensitive to these kind of costs to consider.
