MIP Fund Accounting Works for ME!!!!
Overall Satisfaction with Abila MIP Fund Accounting
It is being used as our GL and financial accounting software in a department of two, plus two executives who look up data.
Pros
- Provides both canned and DIY reporting
- Has easy bank reconciliation feature.
- Provides drill down features from the ledger to the support documents
- Multi-user capability
- Provides for reasonably priced check stock
- Knowledgeable online or phone support
Cons
- Lower the cost of training.
- The summary statement of activities has to use extra lines since it uses summary lines, basically negating the benefit of a summary statement.
- The account balance reports use blank spaces in the headers (e.g. dollar amounts and column headings), so that in Excel I have to always manually delete the blanks to make it a useful Excel report.
- Still struggling with ease of online help/chat room, so I just pick up the phone.
- Financials are easy and efficient to prepare and run.
- High data integrity.
- Smooth sub ledger interface
- It allows us to have confidence in our financial data, record keeping, and reporting. Efficiencies in job tasks, comfort in data integrity and security, makes my job easy!
I inherited it when I got here. That said, compared to other software I have used, it is reasonably priced, and for the price, does quite a bit in accounting/financial data input, recording, tracking and reporting. Having worked in mostly non-profits, it is important to have a data base that can effectively track donor history and involvement in the organization, both financial and volunteer history.
