Denali Fund Accounting is very accurate. I rarely have a software issue. I have been using this product over 20 years. I have used other Fund accounting programs and have come back to Denali. It is straight forward and easy to use. It does not have tons of bells and whistles, but it is reliable and accurate. The program works. I use GL, AP, BR and Payroll modules. They integrate well together. You can have custom reports built for your specific use. I like their CD service for upgrades.

It is accurate. Easy to use. I trust the software . My reports are accurate.

Very Pleased - I could not do my work without it!

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 5/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 5/5

#### Pros

Denali is very easy to use, and it produces great results. The software works in a way that my auditors like. I can't post a transaction unless it balances.

#### Cons

A little difficult to export data, but the technical people at Denali helped me work through the process. The help guides are not detailed enough to make up for inability to understand.

#### Reasons for switching to Denali Fund

My auditor said my old software was not strong enough to handle the volume and complexity of the work that I was doing.

### Denali Fund Accounting

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Denise S.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Religious Institutions
- Company size: 51-200 employees

Gets the job done.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 4/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

This is the only accounting software I have ever used outside of QuickBooks.

#### Cons

It is not the most user friendly. It is a more robust type of accounting software. To correct a GL it takes another complete entry and all of those transactions show up in the audit trail reports, which can be cumbersome.

#### Reasons for choosing Denali Fund

We were using Cougar Mountain Fund Accounting and that aged out.

### Good software Great customer service

- Overall rating: 4/5
- Reviewer: Christy W.
- Verified reviewer: Yes
- Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management
- Company size: 11-50 employees
- Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years
- Reviewed: February 2023
- Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

#### Ratings breakdown

- Ease of use: 3/5
- Value for money: 5/5
- Customer support: 5/5
- Functionality: 4/5

#### Pros

I like the software and the customer service has always been very helpful.

#### Cons

I don't like that when you search something you can't just search by name, when you write a check you can't just type a name you have to actually look them up. If you put something in the GL it doesn't flow to other modules but everything flows to GL. The product could be a little more user friendly.

#### Reasons for switching to Denali Fund

The other software could not do the things Cougar can.
