Aplos

Simple and easy, but with advanced features for those who need it.

Opmerkingen: We began using Aplos as a brand new church. They helped us every step of the way as we grew - absolutely stellar customer service! We still don't have the complexity that some larger churches do, but every time we have needed to add something, the capacity has been there. The one exception was the lack of payroll integration, which I understand that they are now adding but we have not used yet. What I love about the product is that it is easy for us who are new to accounting to use, but also robust enough that our treasure (CPA) is able to use it in more complex ways.

Pluspunten:

Cloud-based Accounting with multiple user accounts makes it easy to keep finances updated. Clean, simple, straight-forward layout makes use easy. Super-responsive customer service are always there when you need them. Bank integration makes it easy to import transactions. Contact management. Reports are quick and easy to generate with customized data. Ability to connect to online-giving.

Minpunten:

At the moment we are unable to link families within the contact management system. There are awesome graphs and charts on the dashboard, but unfortunately they do not have a lot of customization options or the ability to easily export.

Aplos Review

Opmerkingen: I can always get the help we need from Tech. Support.

Pluspunten:

Easy to set up and use. Good tech. support.

Minpunten:

It seems a little pricey . Some of the screens do not have enough contrast to be easily read.

Faith Baptist church use of Aplos

Opmerkingen: Cannot say enough about the excellent support (Especially from [SENSITIVE CONTENT]and his team) making the transition to Aplos in the middle of our year and the quick response during the process and afterwards.

Pluspunten:

Time savings, ease of use, great support available and easily understood. Wonderful training session and tools available at your fingertips.

Minpunten:

Could use some more flexibility in tracking give and particularily break down of givers and amounts for real time reports.

Very Difficult and Complicated, With Poor Tech Support

Opmerkingen: Not good. I need help, and the support never provides help that works.

Pluspunten:

Had potential for non-profits vs QuickBooks

Minpunten:

Bank integration does not work. I've used QuickBooks for non-profits, with integration that works fine. In Aplos, what shows up in Aplos doesn't match what the banks say. Tech support answers fairly quickly, however, they come up with all kinds of solutions that don't work. And different people will offer a different solution. None of them work. Then they drop it leaving me hanging. I may go back to QuickBooks which once you get a few words down (business terms vs non-profit) it is actually quite easy, and more dependable.

Aplos is a lifesaver!

Pluspunten:

I like that there is great customer support and easy to understand tutorials and instruction. The team there is always helpful, quick to respond, and so patient and kind. Although I can find the help I need online most of the time, I like to talk to a real person on chat or on the phone.

Minpunten:

There are so many types of reports for a newbie to understand that sometimes it can be a little bit overwhelming.
