NonProfit+

NonProfit+ is nonprofit-focused ERP software built on Acumatica. It is best suited to nonprofits and related institutions that need fund and grant accounting alongside broader financial management. Its flexible modules, hosting choices and unlimited-user plan are compelling, but custom pricing makes it harder to assess cost before a sales conversation.

Overview

NonProfit+ combines nonprofit accounting with a wider financial management suite. Organizations can adopt all, some or none of its modules, so it can be configured around an organization’s needs rather than requiring every suite. That flexibility is useful for institutions with specific workflows, but buyers should clarify which components their quote covers.

The system can be cloud-hosted or locally hosted, with the option to change hosting later. That gives organizations a choice over deployment, though they will need to weigh their preferred hosting approach as part of the purchasing decision.

Key features

Fund accounting and grants

The accounting suite covers fund accounting, grant management, encumbrances, budgets, endowments and programs. Grant tracking follows budgets, expenses and reporting requirements, including when a grant crosses fiscal years. This makes the product relevant to organizations managing restricted funds and grants with obligations that extend beyond a single fiscal year.

Financial management and access

The broader suite includes general ledger, accounts receivable and payable, cash management, inter-company accounting, multiple currencies, time and expense, payroll and recurring revenue management. Role-based controls can limit access to particular funds, cash accounts, programs, grants and reports. Together, these functions suit organizations seeking to manage financial activity and access within one system; the breadth may be more than a smaller organization needs.

Reporting, integrations and mobile

Predefined and custom reports, user-defined dashboards and drill-downs support financial oversight. Optional Excel-based reporting draws on real-time system data, which can suit teams that want spreadsheet-based analysis without relying on static exports. The application is described as open to integrations, including POS, CRM and AMS systems for museums; organizations should confirm how their required systems fit their chosen configuration.

A free mobile app is included and can be customized to an organization’s needs. The maker also advertises unlimited users without extra cost, which can be useful for organizations that need broad staff access. A free product tour is offered, with a request form available through the contact page.

Pricing

NonProfit+ uses paid, custom pricing. Its NonProfit+ plan has unlimited users, but the price is by quote. That can accommodate different module choices, but organizations cannot compare a published rate before discussing their intended configuration. The unlimited-user allowance removes a per-seat cost concern, though the total cost still depends on the quote.

Platforms

NonProfit+ is available on Android, iOS and the web, and can be self-hosted. The included mobile app extends access beyond the desktop, while the choice between cloud and local hosting gives organizations deployment flexibility.

Who it's for

Nonprofits that need fund and grant accounting as well as broader financial management are the clearest fit. The product also identifies colleges, universities, foundations, museums and food banks as industry areas. Its configurable modules and access controls may suit organizations with distinct funds, programs or grant responsibilities. Buyers seeking a simple tool with an upfront price should look elsewhere.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Fund and grant accounting are paired with a broad financial suite, including payroll and recurring revenue management, reducing the need to treat nonprofit accounting as a standalone task.
• Pros: Configurable modules, hosting choices and the option to switch hosting later give organizations flexibility in scope and deployment.
• Pros: Unlimited users without extra cost avoids seat-count charges as teams expand access.
• Cons: Custom pricing makes upfront budget comparisons difficult.
• Cons: The breadth of the ERP suite may be unnecessary for organizations that only need basic accounting.

Alternatives

For organizations focused specifically on grant management, compare Grant Management Software. For a narrower accounting search, see Nonprofit Accounting Software.

AIMS Grant Management Software is worth considering for single or low-complexity grant schemes; its Foundation plan is £43,000 annually (from), with limited configuration. It is paid, with no free plan or trial, so it is a substantial commitment for organizations that want to test before buying.

Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT is another paid option with custom pricing; personalized pricing may include implementation, training and ongoing support. Bonterra Penelope also uses unpublished pricing, so it is an alternative for buyers prepared to request a quote.

Euna Budget offers a Professional plan for smaller organizations and an Enterprise plan for large, complex jurisdictions, both with custom pricing. OpenWater Grant Management uses a custom subscription based on individual usage needs. Benevity Employee Groups is custom-scoped to an organization’s program and priced by quote. CommunityForce asks buyers to book a demo or speak with an expert for pricing. Foundant CommunitySuite provides pricing after discussing an organization’s needs.

Verdict

Choose NonProfit+ if your nonprofit or related institution needs fund and grant accounting integrated with a broad financial suite, and values modular deployment, hosting choice and unlimited users. Look elsewhere if you need basic accounting or an upfront price: the system’s scope and custom quote make it harder to judge cost and fit without first defining a configuration.
