> Denali Fund Accounting is very accurate.  I rarely have a software issue.  I have been using this product over 20 years.  I have used other Fund accounting programs and have come back to Denali.  It is straight forward and easy to use.  It does not have tons of bells and whistles, but it is reliable and accurate.  The program works.  I use GL, AP, BR and Payroll modules.  They integrate well together.  You can have custom reports built for your specific use.  I like their CD service for upgrades.

> 
> **Pros**: This is the only accounting software I have ever used outside of QuickBooks.
