Pros:

I liked that I could find the information I needed quickly and did not have to mess with too many steps.

Cons:

I don't recall having any trouble. The only thing would be that I did not have many features to work with because the program was dated for our office.

We have been very satisfied with LOGOS and have been using it for years.

5.0 7 years ago

Comments: It has been a great accounting package. Love it!

Pros:

The program is very stable and easy to use. Works well for fund accounting. Very customizable. The version we are using is still resident on our server and not in "the cloud" which is what I want. If Internet goes down we are still able to work. We do use their Global Backup to store backups offsite.

Cons:

Not really a con, but would love it if we could store reports in the format we want as a group so end of month we could just pick a group to run and print rather than having to pick each one.

We're not leaving Logos. Logos is leaving us.

3.0 6 years ago

Comments: Logos Accounting met our accounting needs for many years. We especially appreciated the customization options which were available to us.

Pros:

Our church began using Logos Accounting in 2007. It served us well over the years, providing a decent, customizable fund accounting solution for our church; however, it will reach its end-of-life at the end of 2018, as the outdated software platform it was built upon is no longer supported.

Cons:

Any cons no longer matter as the software is being sunsetted. We are researching new fund accounting solutions. Goodbye, Logos!

All in one package to meet your current and future needs.

5.0 13 years ago

Comments: If you are searching for a simplified method to manage your church administration look no further. I personally believe for churches 50 - 10,000 this is the best versatile product for the price and support you will receive. You may contact me for personal references regarding Logos at 865.588.6855.

Pros:

1. Quickly able to learn and use. 2. Amazing implementation team. 3. Great support willing to listen and help. 4. Product development is a priority with Logos. Exciting to see the new products coming soon. 5. A great program to track Mother's Day Out or Childcare Fees. 6. Online giving and online payment for childcare has been a plus.

Cons:

I would personally not use any other programs at this time except for Logos.

Meets All of our Church's Needs

4.0 13 years ago

Comments: Highly recommend this software package for church use.

Pros:

Our church is not large, but this accounting package is robust and meets all of our needs. We have only scratched the surface of the software's functionality, and I will be spending more time in 2012 trying to take advantage of more features.

Cons:

Not anything major. It would be nice to be able to toggle between Logos Fund Accounting and Logos II within one login. My job includes posting contributions, so I use both pieces of software.

This is an antique accounting system that will disappear at the end of 2018

3.0 6 years ago

Comments: none, now that LOGOS is pulling the plug on this software

Pros:

Integrateded with LOGOS II CMS. Reporting is inflexible. EXCEL exports are poorly formated and hard to use.

Cons:

LOGOS has just announced that they will cease to support this antiquated system at the end of this year. They are providing no support for transferring historical accounting data to any new system, and will not provide access to their server-based online system after 12/31/18, which means you will have no way to do your year-end close or W-2's or 1099's

We've used this for 15+years.

3.0 7 years ago

Pros:

I think the accounting system is easy to learn and maneuver around. Good reports. Payroll is good.

Cons:

The system has not been updated, support response time is usually mediocre. Once they do call, they are helpful. The W2, 1099's are ridiculous. Always have to figure and end around on that. It's too bad Parish Soft doesn't value the product enough to modernize it.

St. Paul's ABerdeen, MD Review

3.0 13 years ago

Comments: Recommend this product, but would encourage buyers/users to attend trainings, especially if new to this type of accounting system/process.

Pros:

Once the system is understood and "mastered" it is easy to use. Even without purchasing the extra reports, for our small church, all the information we would need is there in the reports available with the program as purchased. Technical Support has been very helpful over the years!

Cons:

There is no cut/copy/paste edit option (would be helpful to just copy and paste in the already paid area). We are suppose to be able to update from the Help/About Accounting Tab and it hasn't worked it years (even after calling to see if this could be corrected).

More Pleased

3.0 13 years ago

Comments: LOGOS takes some getting used to and actual data entry into the software is extremely user friendly. The custom reporting is available and I would love to see this area developed and trainings provided more regularly to teach users the bells and whistles and or efficient use of the software.

Pros:

Customer Service responds quickly and is knowledgeable Updates regularly enhancing software Listens to customers needs and implements effective change Programs interface allowing a one step process for income accounting

Cons:

Customized Reporting is not as user friendly tutorials are not as helpful

Comments: I would recommend this program. I have recommended to our church and they are now using it.

Pros:

This is great for fund accounting.

Cons:

I would like to see more ability for me to create my own reports and a way that is more user friendly than the User Financial reports.
