	Sage Intacct	MIP Fund Accounting
Considered Both Products	Sage Paige Burkes CFO in Finance and Accounting at Health Solutions (Hospital & Health Care, 201-500 employees) Chose Sage Intacct We used MIP Fund Accounting for about six years until they were no longer able to keep up with the needs of the market. It ran off of Remote Desktop which was slow and clunky and ultimately made it impossible for a couple of our team members to log in. Their cloud version was … Incentivized Helpful? Amy Fowler Director of Finance in Finance and Accounting at North Carolina Chamber (Non-Profit Organization Management, 11-50 employees) Chose Sage Intacct Sage Intacct is very intuitive which has been great. Abila MIP and Blackbaud systems were not very intuitive and required calling in to figure how to set the system up properly or fix what you did incorrectly. That was a frustrating process depending on who you got on the … Incentivized Helpful? Tasha Criss Controller in Finance and Accounting at Alley Theatre (Non-profit Organization Management, 51-200 employees) Chose Sage Intacct Sage Intacct was both the most powerful and most flexible system we evaluated. The customization capabilities inherent to the system without paying significantly more for special coding made it an easy choice. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Sage Intacct Intacct is far superior to MIP in terms of ease of use and integrations Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Sage Intacct Sage's dual approval process blows MIP's internal control capabilities out of the water. Sage's statistical accounts and integration of non-financial information make the software relevant and useful for the entire organization. Incentivized Helpful? Korrie Snell Director of CSBG Operations at ECKAN (Civic & Social Organization, 51-200 employees) Chose Sage Intacct Sage Intacct is more dynamic, intuitive, and innovative than MIP. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Sage Intacct The dimension, Grant, department allocations were not available in the other systems Incentivized Helpful? Nick Hudak Matchday communications intern at Columbus crew (Sports, 51-200 employees) Chose Sage Intacct Its price was more reasonable compared to other similar platforms. Also, it's support system was great and could respond fast if there was any problem compared to other competitors Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Sage Intacct We transitioned to Sage Intacct from QuickBooks Desktop Pro. This version of QuickBooks was local server-based, and [since] we did not have a VPN connection, our finance team had to be physically on-site Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Sage Intacct While Sage Intacct is highly-priced, it offers better features and is very capable as a business accounting software. Incentivized Helpful? Gregory Hunter CFO in Finance and Accounting at 3Spine (Accounting, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Sage Intacct Multi entity capabilities and the "dimension" structure resulted in our choosing Intacct over the others we evaluated. Sage has incredible reporting capabilities and the ability to easily customize reports and dashboards tipped the scale in our decision making process. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Sage Intacct [Sage] Intacct is much easier to use than the other software we use for different clients. Bill.com does not offer the features that [Sage] Intacct does, and Abila has been outdated for 15 years. There is no comparison between these software's and Sage [Intacct] in my opinion. … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Sage Intacct Sage Inacct is more user friendly and can take more transactions than MIP. Sage is also cloud-based where MIP is not and it is harder to keep it updated with the best version. Sage is just a more up-to-date version of the MIP software and helps us work remotely. Incentivized Helpful? Connie Taylor Assistant Director of Finance in Finance and Accounting at Open Door Health Services (Health, Wellness and Fitness, 51-200 employees) Chose Sage Intacct MIP was not user friendly and there were a lot of reporting functions that we could not use effectively and was still using an excel spreadsheet. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Sage Intacct Intacct is the first cloud based system we've used and it is head and shoulders above our previous local system. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Sage Intacct Sage was the best out of the box Incentivized Helpful? Jeff Ward Director of Finance and Administration in Finance and Accounting at Camp Eagle (Religious Institutions, 11-50 employees) Chose Sage Intacct Intacct provided more flexibility for what we needed. Incentivized Helpful? LaShawnda Flowers Accouting Manager in Finance and Accounting at St. Joseph County Airport Authority (Airlines/Aviation, 51-200 employees) Chose Sage Intacct Although similar products exist, Sage stands out with its ability to store and attach information directly within the application. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Sage Intacct Mostly more robust except for the reporting. MIP had the ability to input any to/from dates for reporting. Incentivized Helpful?	Momentive Software Chris Chaney CFO in Finance and Accounting at MKCAP (Accounting, 51-200 employees) Chose MIP Fund Accounting While I feel Sage Intacct is a good software, it does not suite the needs of the organization the way MIP does. As I had mentioned, the Knowledgebase that MIP Fund Accounting has is an incredible tool that makes it so much easier for us to find solutions and to get the help we … Incentivized Helpful? Douglas Gates Chief Financial Officer in Finance and Accounting at SCPa Works (Non-profit Organization Management, 11-50 employees) Chose MIP Fund Accounting We evaluated Intacct Accounting software but were not impressed with its capabilities when taking into consideration the increased cost over MIP. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose MIP Fund Accounting I liked the financial reporting functionality of Sage Intacct, but MIP Fund Accounting is definitely the better product for tracking many different funds. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose MIP Fund Accounting MIP Fund Accounting has fewer 3rd-party integrations than Sage Intacct, but the cost was much lower for MIP, which was important to me. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose MIP Fund Accounting We are in the very first stages of looking at alternative accounting software. Abila MIP Fund Accounting was implemented at our organization before I started and our organization has now outgrown the system. Incentivized Helpful? Jan Warren in Finance and Accounting at Benton Franklin Workforce Development Council (Non-profit Organization Management, 1-10 employees) Chose MIP Fund Accounting MIP Fund Accounting was highly recommended by our funding source, as other Workforce Development councils (10 out of 12) in our state used it. We did get other bids for procurement purposes, but MIP was the clear choice for us. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose MIP Fund Accounting Management liked MIP online better because it helped manage multiple funds at once. Incentivized Helpful? Rossie Gospodinova Accounts Payable Administrator in Finance and Accounting at Unity Care Group (Non-Profit Organization Management, 51-200 employees) Chose MIP Fund Accounting I have no experience with other non-profit solutions, but the other accounting software such as QuickBooks and Intacct, would not provide the coding for the different departments and programs. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose MIP Fund Accounting It was the right option at the time we converted to it (2009). We have since seen other online options that look good but are very costly. Prior to MIP we used Solomon (a Microsoft product) and have previewed Intacct. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose MIP Fund Accounting It is easier to use but less flexible Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose MIP Fund Accounting Better than Financial Edge but trailing all others Incentivized Helpful?
