Recently, I had a question from a non-profit client about fund accounting options. As a certified non-profit consultant, I represent Abila MIP Fund Accounting™ & Abila MIP Advance™ so luckily, they came to the right place. We reviewed the limitations they were encountering with QuickBooks Online. It didn't take long until we discovered they were outgrowing QBO and it was time for a change.
In fact, it's very common for non-profit companies to outgrow off-the-shelf bookkeeping tools like QuickBooks. In this case, this non-profit was collecting revenue from many sources such as multiple grants or "other" sources. It was clear they were having difficulty tracking income by funding source. Since QuickBooks Online didn't have this capability, there were too many complexities to manage manually. It became extremely cumbersome tracking functional categories and other unique aspects of each transaction.
Here are the 3 major reasons this client selected our accounting consultant for non-profit software and Abila MIP Fund Accounting™
