IconCMO Fund Accounting vs BUCS: Which is a better fit?

Very solid with accounting, an in particular fund accounting, which is critical for churches. Excellent support, far superior to Quickbooks.

One area that is a source of frustration is the inability to change the Chart of Accounts in a given year without disturbing the current Chart of Accounts for all other years.

I like this software because it is easy to use and is updated regularly. The customer service is wonderful if I have any questions.

The Balance sheet and budget comparisons are only two clicks away. And since everything is linked, there can be no errors because something was omitted.

I really like the fact I can call a local number for support. I have found them to be very helpful and pleasant to work with.

My biggest issue with Icon is the lack on confirmation notifications after posting.

I find the software to be very good and the help desk to be friendly and knowledgeable.

None of the reports really give us the monthly report we need. Working with funds is confusing and limiting.

Putting in received payments is very easy and learning the software has been fast and easy. I love the amount of support you receive from the company in terms of training and help when issues arise.

The only thing I dislike with BUCS is where we do our occupational licenses.

The reporting program is fantastic and it has helped my board members better understand the finances of the organization.

Not sure I really like that but it doesn't make things aligned. Again I have only been using this program for 4 months so not sure I know anything else that I dislike.

The ease of setting vendors up to the ease of paying vendors via A/P. This software is very user friendly.

I like the overall ease of maneuvering through loading invoices to printing checks and balancing bank reconciliations. Loading and keeping track of vendors and printing 1099's is also easy to use.
