Top Rated Tyler Enterprise ERP for Schools Alternatives
I like that MUNIS supports our full P2P process flow from requisitioning through check printing. THe system allows for us to manage contrats, purchase orders, p-card statements, and the city's vendor and item files. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A number of areas need improvement:
- Programming standards needs to be implemented and made consistent throughout the solution. Functionality does not always operate consistently from one program to the next
- Tyler needs to take a much more aggresssive approach to testing their products and updates/MUNs/fixes prior to deployment. Regression testing could find some significant issues without requiring the user community to identify and report issues (thus having to actually experience the issue)
- The user experiene could be significantly improved. Many processes are still very time intensive and manual. Focus on compliance and lega requirements first and foremost, but then on ways for the user to get their job done that don't hamper productivity
- The user groups could be a GREAT tool for future development ideas, but instead are run in such a way that there is little time (or room) for that
- Upgrades: - clients need a full, comprehenisve, and specific overview of ALL changes during each upgrade, including training materials, and screenshots. Often times we find that the upgrade notes don't cover everything and our users are confused by new or modified functionality, leaving us all scratching our heads.

Not much at this point - things that are supposed to open up additional windows with things like invoices or change orders just do not work. We get blank screens and no support from Tyler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When you click on "invoice" from a Purchase Order screen,you get nothing.
When you click on "change order" from any screen, you get nothing.
When you ask Tyler Technology to fix issues, you get nothing.
There are so many things in this software that are supposed to work but just don't. Tyler Technology seems to have no understanding of how to fix it (it's been 6 months and we are still having exact same issues with software not working correctly). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Integration within all departments. Being able to perform project accounting without having to use separate spreadsheets and software applications such as Microsoft Project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Not as user friendly as anticipated - would have liked to been able to see dashboards that were more modern and easily recognized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Integration with all the subsystems; great dashboard Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Was unable to implement the bid module due to limited capabilites. Bank Reconcilation Manager is not functional as we were told it would be Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
MUNIS is very user friendly for entering payroll changes and running payroll. Tyler Technologies is constantly adding new features to make payroll processing even easier to use. The Tyler Technologies support staff has been extremely helpful in fixing errors and answering questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Some changes or adjustments I need to make manually. However, I have learned that more recent versions allow these processes to be done automatically. It is helpful to be on a current version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Munis is easy to navigate for first time users with guides. It took me around 3 months to get the hang of it on my own without utilizing someone's help or a job aid. It is fairly easy to train someone on as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The downsides to Munis would be the frequent updates and issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This program is simple once you do it a few times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are too many sub menus you have to select to get where you wanna go Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like that it it easy to access all parts that I need of Munis from my home screen, and that I can add and change information as it changes in real-time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I dislike that there isn't a lot of information on how to operate the software from the software itself. I appreciate when software systems will have "help" tabs on each page in case users have questions about a specific part. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This system can truly do it all - from general fund to grants accounting and management as well as management of purchasing, contracting, and vendors. This is supremely helpful for our organization, as it means that all of our financial information and functionality is consolidated here. Once you learn how to use the tools, navigate the platform, and pull reports, you can glean infinite insights. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The interface is horribly bland and utilitarian. The program and each module are so nuanced, with different functionalities that don't correspond to each other. For example, entering a purchase order and a contract requires entirely different skills. Essentially, you need to know, for each function that you are trying to achieve, what each of the jargoned fields means and exactly how to enter the information and which fields need to be populated and which need to be blank.

Sometimes links are broken and I have to reset them on my homepage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
