Why Us

We realize that when it comes to choosing a software solutions partner you do have choices. And while there are many companies in the software field, you won’t find any that will meet your needs and go Above and Beyond better than Metaphor Software.

As a government entity, your needs are much different than enterprises that operate in the private sector, and Metaphor Software has integrated accounting solutions to address your industry-specific requirements and concerns.

Transparency and accountability are mandatory at all levels. Federal, state, county and local agencies face increasing scrutiny of their internal operations, and our software gives you the tools you need to meet this challenge.

Metaphor Software can increase your organization’s accountability with our FUNDamentals 2008 software. It includes everything needed to comply with GASB 34/35 reporting requirements, regardless of whether you use cash or accrual accounting methods.

This fund-based accounting system tracks restriction based transactions, and provides budgetary control, commitment accounting, and cross-fiscal year reporting. It also includes a user-friendly report writer, along with a rich array of standard reporting tools. It also lets you track grant transactions using the project/grant module.

Our FUNDamentals 2008 software also includes a complete Project Accounting module, which lets you set up projects, estimate projected costs, use past projects to generate new quotes, and track the progress of multiple projects.

Unlike standalone accounting software or clumsy "bolt-on" products, FUNDamentals 2008 is built on Microsoft Dynamics™ AX and makes Dynamics™ AX "fund-aware" - our word for intergration so tight that enterprise-wide decisions and actions recorded in Microsoft Dynamics™ AX appear immediately in your FUNDamentals 2008 accounting data.

You know that operational performance is critical. Metaphor Software offers your organization a full array of features that streamline and manage your operations. So contact us today, and let us show you what we can do for you. You’re only a phone call or mouse click away from increased productivity and efficiency – let us show you how we’ll go Above and Beyond for you!
