Its basically fund accounting software and there are several ways that you can do each task so it is pretty intuitive and you can pretty much guess how to do it if you know how to do accounting.

The Good…

I like that there are several ways to do each task.

The Bad…

Nothing yet so far.

It was easily the best value that we found. We needed to evolve into a system that would have fund accounting which is why we selected it. It is newer, it is only a few years old but they work fairly quickly to get bugs out if I come across them.

The Good…

It is more robust than most systems

The Bad…

I think in general fund accounting has more nuts and bolts so there can be more pieces to the software.
