I was expecting more/better explanation of setting up accounts and that whole thought process and it probably has gotten better since I started. > > **Cons**: Being able to customize your own reports. Real life examples of how to make some of those odd entries that happen once a year. ----- ### "Tennille Baptist Church" — 5.0/5 > **Whitney** | *18 May 2023* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: The Icon CMO software is really easy to use. The donations are easy to put in and go straight to the deposit side off the software so you don' t have to put everything in twice. > > **Cons**: There is not much that I don' t like about the Icon CMO software, the only thing that is a hassly is when I am putting in contributions I am use to hitting the enter key to go to the next row and I have to use the mouse to click on the next row to enter the next name or number. > > My overall experience with Icon has been nothing wonderful. The people are always willing to help me when I mess stuff up or I cant figure out how to fix my problem, even when its a stupid mistake, or question, they are always willing to help me. ----- ### "Focused on our needs" — 4.0/5 > **Bob** | *6 November 2018* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: We use almost every feature of the program. The reason for this, in my opinion, is that Icon's software is specifically designed to be used in a church/parochial school setting. I like how quickly I can access reports and provide meaningful financial data to the various boards of the church and school. > > **Cons**: Right now, the taxation of payroll is accomplished on a rate card by rate card basis. So if we have an employee that does several different jobs in several different departments, without making guesses to the the withholding view/setup screen we cannot accurately deduct the proper withholding for that employee. > > I am very happy with the software itself. But what I appreciate above all else is the customer service. ----- ### "90 percent of the software is Great. 10 percent is a little clunky" — 4.0/5 > **Tim** | *2 November 2018* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Budget are easy to put together and tracks budget expenses by fund or as an all fund list Fund management is easy and can write a separate budget for each fund if needed Easy to write checks Works good with Accrual base accounting especially if using multiple charge cards and payables Easy to run year end statement and prints needed information for IRS Payroll prints and tracks employees. Prints information for W-2/3's, 1099, 941 Contributions entry easy easy to do even if it is a volunteer Able to give different people access or block them from area needed or areas they should not be in. > > **Cons**: Payroll is the most clunky part of the program. If you have a few employees this would be fine, but if you are a larger church if would be an issue. You can print all the information for statement but then have to manually fill in the forms for the W2/3's,1099, 941 etc. Hard to view a contribution batch without reversing it. Works for multi-site churches but have to set up accounts or Fund to separate. Not a big issue if you only have 2-3 sites but for larger sites I would look in to a more complex program > > Overall ICON is a great program and will continue using it. The small issue are greatly made up by all the other benefits it has. I have used many accounting program and my experience is they all have some area that does not work perfect for what you are doing. ----- ### "iconCMO is AMAZING\!\!\!" — 5.0/5 > **Chandra** | *22 February 2018* > > **Pros**: I love it's ease of use. From the membership module to the fund accounting, module to the contributions module, I've found this software to be EXCEPTIONAL\!\! It has truly helped our church to stay on top of it's budget, spending, and membership. It's accompanying manual is quite helpful in setting it up and maintaining various functions. But even if you're unsure of something, the customer service is AWESOME in answering any questions you may have. Not being an accountant myself, some of the fund accounting concepts were initially a learning curve, but the manual and customer support I received really helped and through the fund accounting our church has been better able to supervise and account for our dollars in a manner that meets accounting \& IRS principles. Updates (both functional and visual) are continually being employed to make the user experience run even more smoothly. I've found the following to be specifically beneficial: -Membership maintenance \& communication (i.e. text/emails for upcoming events or inclement weather service cancellations) -Accurate maintenance of member contributions with ease of providing contribution statements -Well though out fund accounting system, which helps us maintain our spending and consistent reporting via recognized accounting principles. It's many reports, that can be generated with the click of a button, also help to communicate with appropriate persons how funds are appropriated. ----- Page: 1 / 5\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/278824/iconcmo-fund-accounting?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.com.au/software/278824/iconcmo-fund-accounting) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
