Use Cases and Deployment Scope

MIP Fund Accounting is used as our main accounting software, it is used for reporting, tracking, and storing vendor information. These are just a few of the ways that it is being used. MIP Fund Accounting is used by one department at our organization. The only department at our organization that necessarily needs an accounting software, is our finance department.

Pros and Cons

It easliy stores vendor information.
Is able to pull as detailed of reports as you desire to build.
Once learned, it is fairly easy and clear to navigate throughout the software.

The design of MIP is lacking and feels retro in most ways.
It takes a while to learn to navigate the system, if it was a little more streamlined it would not take as long to learn.
The design of the report builder is a bit tedious and not as efficient as it could possibly be.

Return on Investment

A positive impact is that it is mostly reliable.
A positive impact is that it provides pertty much everything we need in one place.
A negative impact would be the amount of time it takes for someone new to the software to learn it.

Effectiveness at Managing Multiple Fund Sources

Our non-profit organization has been able to manage multiple funds from multiple sources because of the features that MIP Fund Accounting provides. The features that MIP Fund Accounting provides are fairly easy to navigate once learned, which makes managing multiple funds from multiple sources an easy thing to do.

Alternatives Considered

MIP Fund Accounting has many alternatives that challenge it, but this is the only accounting software that provides everything we need in one place. Other programs do not offer as many features or as many details at your finger tips. MIP Fund Accounting is a software that is customizable and we like that.

Other Software Used

Concur Travel and Expense, Spiceworks Help Desk, CyberSource

Likelihood to Recommend

MIP Fund Accounting is well suited in the storing of vast amounts of financial information. It easy within MIP Fund Accounting to search vendors etc., and pull payment history, with a lot of details as well. It is also easy to read this information within the MIP Fund Accounting software itself. It stores this information in a fairly organized manner as well.

Support Rating

It is fairly easy to get a hold of support with MIP Fund Accounting. I also like how we get frequent updates on the status of our support request so that we know exactly what is going on and so we do not feel forgotten about. This is more than a lot of companies do.
