    Budgyt
    Budgyt is great for instant consolidation of a multi-department and multi-entity organization. It has strong hierarchy and roll-ups at various levels. User setup and security is straightforward, with ability to restrict data to only department heads over a project. Excellent capability in salary and benefit calculation, for instance down to each type of state and federal tax, and each type of employee health benefit with individual cost as specific as necessary. Strong export functionality.

    Centage is suited for all types of business. This is what makes this tool so great. It requires some expertise in setting it up and depending on how complex the business is, it may take longer than expected. It's a complex system and if you are not involved in the implementtion it might be hard to learn what is does.

    Pros
    Budgyt
    • budgeting: building annual budgets from the ground-up
    • financial reporting: Budgyt includes a number of great options for navigating financial reports
    • analysis (& reporting): the ease and flexibility of configuring and using data tools allow for detailed analysis, and numerous options for accessing data to enable effective analysis and reporting views

    • Planning personnel with all the related benefit expenses is very accurate and we are able to forecast increases as well.
    • Storing separate versions of the budget allows us to finalize for the year and have access to the data while we update the default plan with any changes.
    • I ilke the way you can add intelligence see the detail of calculations below th eline item.
    • I like writing Planning Maestro reports to see drill downs of any item and tie them to our ERP Budget

    Cons
    Budgyt
    • The ability to remove %'s entirely from reports, instead of only partially removing %'s from a report.
    • The formulas C2C and FOAs can be confusing to set up. I think more explanative data ---- hovering over question marks alongside cells you must complete as a suggestion --- in this module would be useful. These formulas work great once you trial & error your way into them operating. But we find their initial set-up a time commitment. We don't want to watch how-to videos each time we set them up. The hover/clarifications of what certain cells mean would be very helpful.

    • Head count is a bit strange as each period is considered one Headcount for a total of 12 per year, so we have to adjust when running reports
    • would love to be able to attach related expenses in payroll to a kind of employee instead of doing each individually. It's time consuming.
    • Have the help more available instead of having to log into separate place

    It is awesome, will never go back to the spreadsheet. Just paid for our second year. It does everything we need. Slick interface for data entry, easy to use and run reports with a few clicks to get what you want. great data comparison, flexible to be able to see monthly totals from prior year or other scenario when entering in the data sheet

    Usability
    Budgyt
    We have not encountered any issues with Budgyt’s limitations, given the number of departments and the volume of data we pass to the tool. I have no reason to give it anything less than a 10; the only limitation so far is that we don’t have full API integration yet. Once that is finalized, we will be seamlessly integrated across all of our financial platforms and tools.

    During my first year of working within the budget software, I had to go through some training while trying to meet deadlines for meetings. The team at Budgyt was very accommodating and made sure I was equipped with the knowledge that I needed to be successful

    The team makes sure that you get what you need out of the software. They will do whatever is in their power to make sure you're happy and are getting back your investment (time and money).

    Alternatives Considered
    Budgyt
    Other than Hyperion, which is in a different league and more suitable for much larger organizations, I would say that Budgyt compares very favorably. We moved from Great Plains to Sage Intacct, and evaluated their planning solution at the time of implementation. We were very underwhelmed by the management reporter tool that we used with GP, and budgeted with Excel prior to moving to Sage. We began looking at several other products alongside Budgyt & Sage's solution, but were so impressed by Budgyt that at its price point it was a no-brainer. We liked Sage's tools plenty, but felt that Budgyt could do more and cost less, so opted to go this route despite the lack of direct integration.

    I used to use an older consolidating product call FRX or something like that, very manual where accounts were adding line the reporting lines one by one.... Centage is far superior, the ability to create custom Dimension hierarchies as improved our reporting 100 fold

    Scalability
    Budgyt
    The ability to budget at multiple organizational levels is central to Budgyt's design. These levels can be regions or product lines or departments, which are all easily rolled up to a consolidated organizational view. Reporting back against these levels is also built-in to the system.

    Return on Investment
    Budgyt
    • It has been a huge time saving for us when trying to forecast for changing personnel and contractors
    • It has also created a portal that department managers can use to drill down on their costs without risk they will see information they shouldn't
    • We have also used it to replace manual management reports created on spreadsheets and this has also saved a significant amount of time.

    • We were a very small company growing by acquisition so it worked well during these phases of our company growth.
    • The return for our cost was tremendous especially in comparison to peers in the market.
    • Analytics Maestro allowed us to grow without adding headcount by building efficient reports that can easily be mass-produced for all branches within our organization.
