Software meets all my agency needs with quality, ease and price.
Pros
Ease of use of all the software. Supplements you can purchase to make parts of GMS even easier. Also, their support service is wonderful. You can ask questions several ways and they always respond quickly and with a solution to question.

MIP did not handle indirect costs and other cost allocation well. The reports were not what we wanted and payroll was bulky.

Pros
Haven't had any trouble processing transactions through this company and their customer service is GREAT!
Cons
I wish their website was a bit more user friendly but with a little trial and error, it's manageable to find out the info you need.

This is a great software for Non-profits and small governments
We use it for both payroll and accounts payable.
Pros
The ease of setting up and using fund accounting. It does a great job of using indirect cost pool. The help desk has long term employees, most over 20 years with GMS.
