Use Cases

Budgeting & Reporting

Budgeting and reporting should be efficient value-add processes. But they aren't. Spreadsheet templates are difficult to hand off, users overwrite formulas, rollups have too many errors — and integration of actuals is a zoo!

Rolling Forecasts

With company valuations in the dumpster and credit markets tight, the economic crisis is forcing hard looks at revenue sources and spending across the board.

Long Range Planning

Most financial plans for evaluating long range strategies are developed using spreadsheets and most have the same problems — cell formulas too difficult to trace, inputs spread across multiple sheets, links too easy to break, and structures too difficult to maintain.

Scenario Analysis

If you can't predict the future, and few of us can in today's turbulent economic times, the next best thing is to set up scenarios, lots of them.
