From the Nov. 2009 Review of Not-for-Profit Accounting Programs.

CYMA Not-for-Profit Fund Accounting Software is a completely modular system that offers a complete financial solution aimed specifically at nonprofit organizations. Ideal for small to mid-sized organizations, CYMA offers excellent scalability, allowing users to purchase the modules they need when they need them.

EASE OF USE/FLEXIBILITY-
CYMA’s main user interface contains an active module box where users can choose the module they wish to access. The eDesk user interface makes it easy to access system functions, including learning tools such as the Getting Started Guide, reference materials, the CYMA Update Center and module tutorials. The New in Version 11 tab provides users with a list of the new features and enhancements. eDesk is also fully customizable, with the ability to run CYMA functions directly from links, offer links to web pages, and assist users with data importing.

CYMA offers solid customization capabilities, allowing end-users the ability to customize the Quick Entry Grids interface within each module to better suit their needs. CYMA data-entry screens are easily navigated, with lookup options throughout. Data entry is further simplified by the choice of three keyboard modes.

MODULES/SCALABILITY-
The System Manager module is required in order to run other CYMA modules. Modules available for the CYMA Not-for-Profit Fund Accounting Software system include GL, Payroll, AR, AP, Bank Reconciliation, Inventory, Sales Order, Purchase Order, Job Costing, Grant Management, and After-the-Fact Entry. With the exception of the System Manager module, all modules can be purchased as needed.
