Overall Satisfaction with MIP Fund Accounting (formerly Abila MIP)
Currently, MIP is being used by the accounting department for accounting, payroll, budgets, direct deposit and forms creation. We purchased the PO & EReq module but have never used it.
Pros
- By having the ability to set up the system specifically for your organization, one can customize the software versus having one that treats all companies as a cookie cutter approach.
- Fund management - tracking income and expenses for each individual grant is a must for our organization. One the other hand, it is helpful to easily merge all the data and generate consolidated information.
- It is also very easy to create custom reports and having the ability to set up filters to generate specific information.
Cons
- I would love to see some improvements in the Bank Reconciliation module. For example, being able to select/highlight multiple rows and then click the check mark to select, say, 15 rows. That would be helpful - cutting the time of having to click each row one by one.
- I would also like to increase font on the overall application. Currently I must manually increase font of certain areas. I would like to automatically increase all font sizes and have them stay within my settings as an ongoing feature.
- The software has had a positive impact on reporting information to our board of directors and funding sources. I can easily generate reports in a matter of seconds by accessing saved reports or I can easily customize a report to accommodate certain information needed.
When our company first started, we used QuickBooks Pro. I felt it worked fine for the organization when we had just one funding stream. As the organization grew, we decided to move to MIP but I was hesitant as it was new to me, more detailed transactions and overall a more advanced software. However, after using MIP, I would never go back! The ability to track funds separately is a huge benefit to non-profit organizations. Should a funding source representative make a surprise visit, I can run a custom report for that grant at the drop of a dime.
