MIP Fund Accounting Wins Campbell Award

Product rated number one in overall satisfaction

MIP Fund Accounting has earned a coveted Campbell Award from nonprofit research firm Campbell Rinker for its exceptional ratings in a recent nationwide survey of accounting software users. MIP Fund Accounting received the highest overall satisfaction score among all products rated in the Nonprofit Accounting Software Survey. In 2004, the product received a Campbell Award for having the Best Expense Tracking capabilities of all rated products.

"It is an honor MIP Fund Accounting received such high recognition from accounting software users," said Marc Griffin, SVP and general manager for Best Software's Nonprofit Solutions. "We strive to design products that improve the daily lives of nonprofit accounting professionals. Our ultimate goal is to help organizations demonstrate financial and organizational accountability to their boards and constituents. The Campbell Award validates that we are indeed meeting our customers’ high expectations."

A key finding of the Campbell Rinker study was that accounting software users ranked system “reliability” the most important aspect of the 18 considered. Reliability factored as an important issue for MIP Fund Accounting system users in particular, who ranked the product’s reliability as the aspect with which they are most satisfied. Among all users surveyed, the ability to access the software via the Internet was the least important of the 18 aspects considered.

Campbell Rinker conducted the Nonprofit Accounting Software Survey online between November 2004 and January 2005, and gathered information on user satisfaction, pricing preferences, purchasing habits, and organizational scope. The firm thoroughly screened users to ensure results were accurate. Half of the survey respondents have final purchase authority for accounting software. Ninety-one percent of respondents use the software at least once a week.
