Very nice!

Verified reviewer

What they liked
  • We have been using this for accounting for quite awhile and have not have any issues
  • It has great support and options to be able to work for what our non-profit is always needing
Room for improvement
  • The reporting could be better, more customization would be great
  • As a non-profit it is always something that we need reporting on and nothing is ever perfect
  • But that does go for many products too

Ok for the $, but only if you have it on premises, stay away from their cloud one.

Loved it when it was on premises, hate their cloud version and the exorbitant prices for services

What they liked
  • System is great for the $ but ONLY if you have it on premises
  • Once you move to the cloud they nickel and dime you to death
  • Any changes you need, they will charge you dearly for it
  • For example once we moved to the cloud, adding a new segment and changing history >$7K, I used to have a SQL engineer do it for $1K
Room for improvement
  • High costs of their customer support for any change

Acumatica doesn't work for non-profits that have a lot of Federal grants

Cloud Conversion/ Client Services

Verified reviewer

What they liked
  • When the software was hosted on premises, it was almost flawless
Room for improvement
  • It was pushed to move to our account to the cloud and functionality and updates to the on prem software was starting to lag and more bugs were encountered
  • When our org migrated, the process was cumbersome and we were charged over $550 for a 'modern overview' that I would have waived if the charges were transparent
  • Client services failed to deliver adequate service and cannot recommend MIP cloud

Great Platform!

Overall very happy with MIP and the way it works. It was a good choice for us!

What they liked
  • MIP is a great fund accounting software
  • It has been very valuable for our organization and makes it easy to keep everything in order and organized

System is sometimes glitchy and it's hard to find tutorials for learning new things in the software

Account Software Crisis

Nightmare

What they liked
  • Nothing about the software is user friendly and the training process is a nightmare
  • the company keeps switching trainers who leave the company and leave their clients with no connection to know what is going on
Room for improvement

The technology feature is very difficult and the modular build up is not effective to pull out reports

MIP promised to provide ease of services and efficiency

Sturdy and reliable accounting software

Overall good, reliable and serves our current needs. We'd prefer a system that did not require annual updates performed by our applications team, but it's something we can live with. Customer support is helpful but can be hard to reach at times.

What they liked
  • It is reliable and doesn't crash
  • Good suite of features that suit our essential needs, such as payroll, AP, AR, reports, budgets and fund management
  • Other tools are add ons that we do not currently use but had to contract with a few additional third parties to meet our needs
Room for improvement
  • Annual fee and need for annual updates
  • Normally these are not too cumbersome but occasionally they are more difficult to implement for our applications team and it takes up a good chunk of their time

University Fundraising Team

I personally found the coordinative POSSIBILITIES to be high, however the learning curve made it hard for the average user to become functional.

What they liked
  • I enjoyed the ability to get an entire University on board and working in the same direction
  • Additionally, the ability to coordinate accounts is very helpful
Room for improvement
  • The learning curve is hard
  • It is easy to use poorly, and difficult to use easily
  • I became an adept user, but the difficulty in getting up to speed typically meant that other colleagues accomplished only the basic tasks, or neglected using it at all

Great software for mid-market non-profits

Civic & Social Organization

What they liked
  • The Saas version makes it easy to implement and easy on the IT department (they don't have to do anything)
  • It also makes it easy to access from anywhere
  • We moved from Blackbaud because their system was so clunky and I couldn't get financials out of it easily
  • With Abila, it's very easy to run a variety of financials that I can tailor to my needs
  • It's also very easy to drill down (not from the financial reports) to find the detail I'm looking for with links to supporting documents (i
  • e
  • invoices)
  • The A/R, fixed asset and other modules let us keep accounting for everything in one place
Room for improvement
  • The financial reports are a bit limited in terms of showing groupings of departments without being able to show the total on the same report
  • It can't do monthly balance sheets on one report
  • And you can't enter operational/non-financial data for more comprehensive reporting
  • The wait time for calling into their help center is still unacceptable (hold times of no less than 30 minutes)
  • They know about this and, instead of fixing it, tell users to use their chat function
  • While their response time on chat is very fast, I hate having to type out my issues and responses
  • I just want to talk to a live person

Workplace utilizes for Electronic Requisition system

Performing Arts

What they liked
  • We were able to move away from wasting so much paper and doing paper purchase orders for everything
  • MIP allowed for us to move into an easily submittable format
Room for improvement
  • Navigating the software itself can be clunky
  • I'm not sure if we have an older version or not, but there's some standard keystrokes that are different than intuition would say
  • The enter key saves and closes something and the tab key functions more as a traditional enter key which really messed with me for awhile
