With recent upgrades and security improvements to our website, following is important information to better help you navigate using the Client Portal. When using the Client Portal you will find everything you need to successfully download our nonprofit accounting or revolving loan software, order forms, request help, provide feedback, or upgrade your database.

There are four different categories:

  1. Account Management
  2. Order
  3. Support & Feedback
  4. Downloads & Updates

First let’s talk about what you can do in the “Account Management” section…

As you will notice, certain areas of the Client Portal are password protected. For increased security to our website, we will update this password each time we have a software revision or more often as needed. We will notify our clients when these updates take place. This is a good example of why having your most up-to-date contact information is very important to us.
