FMS Replacement

[CHiLL]

I am in the process of moving away from Hosted SIMS to a cloud based MIS. We also have Hosted FMS, which I want to also move away from and I understand that both Bromcom and Arbor have their own finance modules. However, I am hearing from multiple people, including outsourced finance support that they're not particularly great compared to FMS - which is saying something given what FMS is like.

 

The head is open to moving to another finance system, as long as it does what we need and would prefer to use a system that most/a lot of other schools are using and have good experience with. They don't want to move away from FMS, realise the new system can't do what they want and have to move to another system.

 

If you could provide me with information about which finance system you're using and if you moved from FMS, how the migration went and what workflows are like in comparison.
