## Reviews

### "DLS works great" — 4.0/5

> **Nancy** | *August 22, 2023* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: DLS is user-friendly.  It is easy to learn and entries are quick.  It also fully integrates with our accounting system.  Tracks loan and savings balances.  The statements are clear and straight-forward; easy both to generate and to understand.
> 
> **Cons**: The user manual could be improved.  But thankfully the support is great and knowledgeable.
> 
> Good experience with DLS.  Support is very responsive and rarely needed\!  I especially like that it is so easy to learn and use.  It is not overly complicated.  It tracks hundreds of savings deposit accounts and loans and does it well.  It does not try to be an "everything" product.

### "Excellent Software for a Good Price" — 4.0/5

> **Jeannette** | *June 7, 2021* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We have 135 parishes and many of them have savings accounts and loans with us.  There are many transactions weekly.  This software enables us to accurately track all of these transactions, calculate interest, estimate loan payoffs and run reports with ease.  I never had "formal" training on it when I started and it is very easy to pick up.  Plus it doesn't cost an arm and a leg.
> 
> **Cons**: I don't really have any complaints.  Their are preformatted reports and sometimes I wish I could customize them more to my liking, HOWEVER that doesn't hamper me in any way.
> 
> Overall, I am very satisfied with DLS.  I don't give it much thought which is a good thing because it allows me to do my job with no hassles.  Also, whenever I have a question or a problem (which is rare), customer support gets back to me within an hour of my text.

### "Ass.  Director of PRF" — 5.0/5

> **Loretta** | *June 9, 2021* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: DLS id easy to use. The computer Department Inc, has made many updated enhancements to the software over the years.  We converted to DLS on 2003. We have had little to no issues. When we do have an issues , The programmer quickly resolves it.  If we have a need for a special report , they add  or create it for us with no problems.
> 
> **Cons**: I would  be nice  If DLS allows you to filter reports within parishes without choosing  parish  by parish. i.e.  general operations account for all parishes. ( however this can still be done by exporting the report to excel)
> 
> With DLS Financials we are able to provide or parishes with excellent/ reliable  banking needs. the interface with our accounting department allows us produce  our company financial report with ease.

### "Very Satisfied" — 5.0/5

> **Theresa** | *June 9, 2021* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: That is very easy to maneuver. Adding new locations and accounts can be done with ease. If a mistake is made I can call tech support to unpost so that I can correct the error.
> 
> **Cons**: The least thing I do not like about the software that some things that need to be changed after entering the information has to be deleted and re-entered again. Example if I set up an account to be a 12 month CD and once I save it and I realized I set up a 24 month CD in error. I cannot go and change it instead I have to delete and start over.
> 
> My overall experience has been very good. It is very user friendly and I find it is easy to train someone when needed. If I do have any issues that I cannot rectify myself I am able to call tech support and they are always available to assist me.

### "Value for your money\!" — 4.0/5

> **Nicolas** | *June 15, 2021* | Nonprofit Organization Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: DLS is very user friendly and beneficial to our Catholic Diocesan needs. Not only is it cost affect, which is a major factor when choosing vendors for us, but they are able to attend to all of our needs and exceptions that we have. DLS interacts well with our current accounting software Microsoft Great Plains.
> 
> **Cons**: There are no additional features that we are looking for that DLS doesn't offer.
> 
> Everything we need to run our Banking \& Loan System DLS offers us. Not only is it cost affect, but customer service goes above and beyond to really attend to all of our questions or issues. Implementation was smoot and it is compatible with our current accounting software Microsoft Office Dynamics.
