Overall Satisfaction with Abila MIP Fund Accounting

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

MIP Fund Accounting is being used for G/L, payroll and financial reporting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

None. It has a 20+ yr old architecture, no APIs and poor support. We plan to sunset it and migrate to Workday or something similar. What is holding us back is user inertia.

Cons

Needs to be architected and redesigned for scalability as a SaaS solution with REST APIs or web services for integration with HR systems. Change the licensing structure to subscription based.

It is well suited for non profit accounting. But there are other competing products that do the job better especially their A/P functionality. Navigator is a package I have used before and they are upgrading it from a client/server system to a web based app. A similar redesign is long overdue for MIP. It is also an impediment to our migration to the cloud.
