Industry guide

Software for NGOs and housing societies

NGOs and housing societies both collect money from many members or donors, must issue compliant receipts, communicate constantly and keep accounts their auditors accept. Societies add visitor management and facility booking.

What breaks generic software here

The specifics a vendor demo will gloss over unless you raise them.

  • Receipts must satisfy 80G, FCRA or society by-laws, not just accounting
  • Collections from hundreds of members or donors need automated reminders
  • Gate security and visitor logs are now expected by residents
  • Committees change yearly, so records must outlive the people
  • Audits demand clean, exportable books
