Asyst is easy to use, easy to set up, and easy to get started using
Asyst is easy to use, easy to set up, and easy to get started using. Once set up, the reports generated are perfect.
Pros
I like the reports/ inquiry features the best. The drop down look-up features also make it easy to use.
Cons
It isn't perfect as it is set up for an accural accounting system and most small cities use a cash system. There is a work around, but there shouldn't be a need for one.
