None of these publish real monthly pricing - every one requires a scoped discovery call, so budget time to get three quotes rather than assuming list prices exist. And separately from the service provider, the underlying software matters: most of these run on QuickBooks Online, but if you have heavy grant restrictions, Aplos (nonprofit-native, cheaper) or Sage Intacct (expensive, true fund accounting) are worth raising in those calls.Confirm your provider supports whichever you pick before signing.
