Pros

This fund accounting product performs well, though it could benefit from enhanced flexibility in reporting options.

Cons

Integrating a CRM platform into this fund accounting system seemed promising, but it's clear it wasn't designed with donor management in mind. For instance, generating acknowledgement letters for donations or invoice payments is not direct a fundamental aspect of CRM.

Pros

It's a simple accounting software with excellent training and support, offering solid value for money.

Cons

My experience with training on Bill.com felt disjointed, possibly because I lack formal bookkeeping training. While the advice is insightful at times, there are basic concepts that remain unclear. A more comprehensive approach to training from the ground up would be beneficial.
