Overall, Banyon gets the job done for the price. It has its quirks, but it sounds like other similar software's have the same quirks. Customer service can either be outstanding or unhelpful depending on who answers the phone.

Pros

Out of all of the Banyon programs I utilize, I feel like fund Accounting is the most functional, and stores the most valuable information. I like that all Banyon programs integrate fairly seamlessly.

Cons

We least like the execution errors and weird glitches, the untimely posting, and the inability for many people to utilize the same program at the same time. My least favorite function of fund accounting is the Project codes, as the information falls off after 3 years, which defeats the point of tracking a long project.

I called Banyon as I had issues closing out the 2022 calendar year. The person who answered the call could not help me, and told me I would have to figure out my mistakes on my own.

Pros

I can print checks, and balance to my Excel spreadsheet.

Cons

Customer support, and extremely hard to correct accounting errors.

My overall experience with Banyon Fund Accounting has been positive.

Pros

I have used Banyon Fund Accounting for many years and find it easy to use and find what I need. I can usually get any technical questions answered right away or within an hour.

Cons

Banyon runs on Access. I sometimes have troubles with access and then the software closes or goes to a back up or just has to sit and think for a bit.

Initial set up was pretty much left me doing it. There was very little help from Banyon. Also, the initial training was terrible. Had to teach myself which caused stress and errors.

Pros

Correcting posting errors are very easy to fix.

Cons

Not being able to correct a posting error if a wrong fund is chosen.

It is fine. The best is having Peggy to be support! Your support team is great. All of them are wonderful, and it is greatly appreciated.

Pros

Fairly easy to use, I like the reports and they are helpful for each department.

changing mistakes is hard - Many times I have to call for help. especially the things we only do once a year.

Pros

Numerous reports that I can provide to my council for review.

Cons

There is not any training offered at any of our conferences from Banyon. Having additional training on Fund accounting would be and is crucial to this position. Having more knowledge to explain certain documents and functions to my council would be beneficial. Training numerous auditors, deputy auditors and council all at once would be more cost effective for everyone. Having a one on one session at a conference would be great.

Reasons for choosing Banyon Fund Accounting

Unknown this was already implemented when I started with the City.

Pros

I found Fund Accounting user friendly. I am able to search through it and find lots of reports and features that are very helpful. It is fairly easy to correct mistakes.

Cons

It seemed overwhelming at first, but the customer service is so good that I never worry that I won't be able to do something or fix a mistake.
