Life in the Cloud

Three Stories About MIP Cloud

MIP Cloud employs an innovative, scalable, and best-in-class solution that meets you everywhere. Join the 11,000 MIP Cloud users and ensure your organization can access your fund accounting solution wherever your staff is working today. 

According to our Nonprofit Research Study, which surveyed 400 nonprofit professionals, 75% of respondents said their organization was more likely to adopt a cloud-based solution in 2022, and when presented with a list of options to execute, three out of the four top responses related to cloud computing.

“We recently moved to the cloud (2 years ago) and the client services was vital to our implementation. They fully worked with us on the date we would be starting with it, how it would work, what to expect, etc. It was very seamless for us.”

MIP Cloud:

Uses multiple, offsite virtual servers to protect your data if something happens to your office or in the event of human error. We have overlapping backups of your data, so you never risk losing any of your information. 
Allows your staff to work anytime and anywhere they have an internet connection. 
Cuts your organization’s onsite costs by removing the capital expenditures associated with on-premise systems. 
Lowers IT, maintenance, and support costs, depending on use. 
Saves time with automatic software updates, database backups, and report queuing, allowing you to keep using MIP while running a report.

Don’t just take our word for why MIP Cloud is right for you. Hear it from some current users: 

Peninsula Community Health Services of Alaska is part of the Alaska Primary Care Organization, which provides primary care health services to the residents of Alaska. They're accounting for their future with MIP. 

 Joanne Jenkins is an Accounting Clerk with Peninsula Community Health Services of Alaska. After using an on-premise deployment, Jenkins and her organization moved to the MIP Cloud in 2019.

“We use it for our payables, our payroll, our receivables, reporting, budgeting. It's nice to have all aspects of accounting under the same program, making reporting consistent,” shared Joanne. 

 On MIP Cloud providing a return on investment, Joanne said, “By moving to the cloud, we relieved our server and were not being forced to replace it (which for a nonprofit is a huge expense). One person is able to input and maintain files for both payables and receivables. Where we used to have two people working full time in the department, now we have one.”  

The Community Action Partnership of Central Illinois (CAPCIL) serves low-income families and senior citizens of Central Illinois. CAPCIL’s leaders knew that having their fund accounting software on the organization’s server made them vulnerable to loss in the event of a catastrophe, so they turned to MIP Cloud.

“We addressed business continuity in our risk management plan, and realized that just having software loaded onto our server locally made us vulnerable. Moving to the cloud subscription was really integral to us. If something happened to this building or if we had some sort of catastrophic event here, we’d still have access to everything by way of the cloud,”
said Alison Rumler-Gomez, Executive Director CAPCIL

Since 1973, Humanities North Dakota has offered opportunities for lifelong learning through affordable classes and events to North Dakota residents.

After 38 years of using an on-premise system, Humanities ND decided to migrate to MIP Cloud.

Humanities ND is excited at the prospect of allowing multiple people to look at their finances simultaneously and can’t wait for the opportunity to access MIP remotely.

The organization is also taking its payroll paperless with MIP’s Payroll Module, moving away from a manual operation after 38 years. “We currently process payroll on a spreadsheet,” Humanities ND Associate Director Ken Glass said. “It’s time to move on from that too.”
