Priority support is a real step up from the lower plans.

Ruth Calloway

Director of Finance, 51-200 employees

Fund and grant accounting is genuinely first class for a UK charity. Dashboards for budget holders mean programme managers see their own spend without asking finance. Support has been responsive and knowledgeable.

D

Derek Mansfield

President, 11-50 employees

We are paying nearly double our year one price for the same modules and user count. Extra charges appeared for things we understood were included. For a company our size the value equation has stopped working and we are evaluating alternatives.
