Great for accounts payable/receivable

I think overall it is easy to use, logically organized and the customer support is great too whenever I needed help. The check runs and reports can be custom made/labelled and each user login can make their own reports as favorites which is handy.

PROS

I like that this software has all the functionalities required for reporting, accounts payable, receivable, and reporting and that they are logically grouped in each of the menu options. The reports are very easy to use and I love the existing templates. I like that the system makes invoices paperless by scanning all receipts/paperwork into the PDF file image storing system.

CONS

I have to change out the paper in the printer every time I want to print checks manually. I wish there was an automatic way to do this or multiple trays. The system is also a little slow in loading images.

Hotel accounting made easy

This is great for P&L statements and for generating reports that can be utilized in revenue management and managing budgets

PROS

It is a easy to use accounting program. Easy to reconcile check registers, manage A/P vendors and GL entries are easy to do.

CONS

The integration with our PMS is not available and there is no Accounts receivable functions.

M3 System

Overall, the system is great! It is very outdated compared to the other systems out there, but it does the job. As long as you have a process down, there should be no problems!

PROS

-The ability to maintain a lot of financial information and translate this into readable and detailed reports in either Excel or PDF format is excellent! -The ease of uploading budgets with a single spreadsheet. -The training videos were helpful for me as a first time user of the system.

CONS

-The GUI is outdated. -Occasional system crashes. -Running reports is easy - but it takes a lot of clicks/questions to get the report. Once you click "Finish" and you realize you selected the wrong property or period, you would have to re-do the steps. Also, it takes a long time to pull the report, approximately 15-20 minutes per property. -Uploading budgets are easy - however, when there is an error, the message it displays is not very helpful. You would have to try and determine what caused the upload to error out.

Basic and user friendly!

Easy to learn and use. Needs to be sleeker.

PROS

Easy to learn and navigate and use for new users.

CONS

It has a dated look and seems old. Not meant for big groups.

Vendor Response

We at M3 appreciate all feedback and thank you for the kind remarks. We also appreciate taking the time to provide this review. We are constantly upgrading the accounting product and while the "look" may not change that often, the features and functionality have been enhanced and upgraded hundreds of times - all at no charge to our customers. We are proud that we have never charged an upgrade fee, that we work without formal agreements and that these values have helped us grow to almost 5,700 individual properties that use M3 on a daily basis. These customers include some of the largest companies and most complicated portfolios in the industry. I am not sure what this reviewer deems a "big group"; however, M3 serves hundreds of customers with more than 10 properties in their portfolio with many of those in the 100 property range. Thank you for your comments and most of all thank you for your business.
