UWRC AccuFund Review
I am very happy with our transition to AF after working in QB for over 30 years. The software fits our needs and I wish more United Ways could afford it.
PROSWe have been using AccuFund now for several years. We switched from QuickBooks because QB couldn't handle Grants Management. I am very happy with the product. The interaction with our AF consultant [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] is amazing. He is the best!
CONSThe budgeting module is clunky to work with and seems to have many bugs. The module that allows an employee to enter their time is needed, but just too expensive for us.
Reason for choosing AccuFund Accounting Suite
Cost and similarly to QB.
Reasons for switching to AccuFund Accounting Suite
Grants management was impossible in QuickBooks because of different Grant year ends.

PPWI AccuFund Accounting Suite Review July 2020
PPWI's positive experience with AccuFund also includes positive experience with their product support and customer service. Their product support provided the needed organization and product expertise for a successful implementation. Their customer service always responds with 60 minutes and mostly within 30 minutes. They are attentive to our issues and communicate in an manner that in understandable and useful.
PROSPPWI substantially utilizes only two of the AccuFund modules: the General and Accounts Payable. The standard features of each of the modules provide a good framework for effective and efficient processing of transactions. Also, the ability to customize utilizing elective options such as "Type" allow us to group and / or categorize organizations, transactions, etc. uniquely to our needs. These modules are accompanied with a comprehensive list of standard reports. These standard reports have many filter options which support our reporting needs very well. The reporting features include the ability to easily customize reports as needed.
CONSPPWI does not utilize the ERP features and / or functionality of AccuFund. We utilize other applications for health care EPM EHR, fund raising, employee resource management (payroll). We utilize AccuFund import / export features extensively to support our batch processing of transactions.
Reason for choosing AccuFund Accounting Suite
We did not consider any alternative products.
Reasons for switching to AccuFund Accounting Suite
PPWI made the switch to AccuFund because of its features, product support team and because of its ability to be hosted. Having AccuFund hosted ensures that we will always being working on the most current version of the application.

Low-budget option
Keeps track of vacation/sick/etc. accumulations and is updated every pay period.
CONSFilling in the time card is way more difficult than it needs to be. In order to input holiday/vacation/sick time, you have to delete the hours, type in "0," save, select holiday/vacation/sick, type in the correct hours, and then save again. It's way too many steps for something that should be simple. Also, the way the time sheet is set up is very difficult to see on a computer screen without having to scroll horizontally, which then hides the categories. Not mobile compatible.

AccuFund
Integration with Zoho and Expensify are seamless. Transition from QuickBooks was easy and the transition team is easy to work with.
CONSNot being able to attach notes to a transaction is the only downside.
Reasons for switching to AccuFund Accounting Suite
Our size and scope of operations made it imperative to switch to more sophisticated software. AF made it easy to choose with features and functionality that we need, and a price that made it a layup.

Accounting Software Conversion
I am very happy with our decision to move to AccuFund. It is specific to non-profit accounting, and the company adheres to a continuous improvement philosophy. They keep up to date on accounting standards, and are always looking for ways to help us become more efficient.
PROSThe software is very flexible. We have been able to program it to do almost everything we want it to do. It has cut our month end close by 4 days because it is a real time system and there is no batch processing. More entries can be made during the month, less at month end. We have also been able to reduce the number of manual excel spreadsheets we used to keep outside the software system. The reporting features are incredibly powerful as well. We have eliminated excel spreadsheets from the board reporting process. At the end of the month, it is almost as easy as hitting a button and getting the board financial packet. Minutes instead of hours.
CONSThe Standard Reporting module is very very powerful. But, because it is so powerful, it is difficult to learn to use. I have had to resort to contacting my consultant to write reports for me. That being said, the reports he has been able to write for us have eliminated hours of work trying to pull the information together from many different sources.
Reason for choosing AccuFund Accounting Suite
We looked at a Sage product and a product that also posted in real time. The Sage product still used the month end batch processing. The other real time system was not specific to non - profits and was much more expensive.
Reasons for switching to AccuFund Accounting Suite
We had been using a GL system that was an add on to a medical record system. The system was very basic and very old. Very inefficient.

PROSThe ease of use and the robust customization to what is needed for your organization.
CONSReports are complicated but after years of tweaking you can make it work. You need to know the tables and how to before creating one from scratch. Backup Hog-files are big and you need space to save just not the same place where you have accufund running on.

accu fund
I currently only consistently use 3 modules and the software is very easy to use.
PROSThe software is easy to use, for the most part but I use it everyday, so it becomes habit. I like the ability to see everything about an organization, with just one click
CONSI was able to see which vendors were missing SSN before this last update, but that is not available any more. I would like to option to move the purchase orders straight to "bills" . I wouldn't need to enter all the information from the purchase order, but have the option to enter an invoice number.
Reason for choosing AccuFund Accounting Suite
The different options, and the ability to customize the software. We can eventually add a payroll module to our existing modules is a plus.

AccuFund Review
I like that it is easy to pick up, learn and teach. It is easy to change different account/user settings. It is easy to pull different reports to match your needs, as well as creating your own personalized versions. My favorite feature is the ability to scan your own images on every type of entry, and the ability to create detailed organization accounts.
CONSI think the most difficult part of AccuFund is the Dashboard- but that could be because it is newer and I haven't has as much experience with it yet. Another slight con would be when you go to scan images- every day you have to set up your scanner with AccuFund when you log in, instead of it remembering your scanner settings.

As a non profit organization, our accounting system is very complex. AccuFund meets our needs!
There are so many things that I love about this software program, the A/P module, the A/R module, the Payroll module, Loan tracking, the Requisition and Purchase Order system. We have a lot of different funding sources, so allocating costs to each funding source is a breeze when using AccuFund. The drilling capability is also a huge benefit to this software. I can drill down on any expense to see what Purchase order was used to generate the expense and what check number was used to pay for it.
CONSAs with anything, there are always improvements that can be made, however, AccuFund listens to what your needs are and makes upgrades as needed.

City of Craig, Alaska
The city implemented AccuFund in 2005 and has used a majority of the modules. Once AccuFund is set up there is little maintenance if updates are installed as released. AccuFund is easy to teach to staff and has the internal controls for a small municipality. I have used numerous accounting software and AccuFund is the best for the value, ease of use and the AccuFund staff are great to work with.
PROSAccuFund's support is exceptional and usually replies within 24 hours. The separate modules integrate with each other and are easily customized to the city's needs. Reporting can be customized.
CONSAccounts payable post details to general ledger rather than one line per invoice. Employee portal calendar stops frequently. Property tax reporting is cumbersome.

I would say that this software has a ton of capability.
Very flexible. Very powerful. Takes some time to get familiar with, but well worth the time and effort.
PROSThe flexibility, AccuFund is very powerful. I also like the fact that you can setup a test database of your own system to test various scenarios before implementing. Support staff is very helpful. I think it is really important to have a good retailer to help with the setup to make sure it works correctly from the very beginning.
CONSIn some ways, the flexibility. Understanding how the software works makes it easier, but because each customer can customize everything so much, you really need to know how it works. I was not involved in the original setup, but I have setup a couple of modules and was successful. I always did it in the test system first to make sure it worked the way I expected.

I have had good customer service. Most of the Customer Supporters are very willing to assist.
The ease of the accounting process. If you go out and change a distribution it automatically changes it in the employee record.
PROSOnce it is explained how it works it is fairly easy to get around in the program. I have recently tried to change a report and found it fairly easy to maneuver.
CONSSometimes I find that the system works very slowly. Also, sometimes you will get the message that an illegal action was performed, not sure why this happens? There was some major confusion during the start of the ACA reporting.

Accufund is important to our operation because we rely on the management of 30+ funding streams and we do all of our payroll in house. The modules do help us keep all of our ducks in a row.
PROSOnce the software is installed and you get training on the modules. It becomes more user friendly. Must get training.
CONSThe modules overall are not really user friendly or intuitive. We still need a customer service person to help set up reports that we want to create.
