Budgyt vs. Cube

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.

1) The budget process. In QBO the budgeting capability is non-existant, unless you like manually typing in every scenario and not being able to budget by class. Cube houses my budget/forecast scenarios & lets me view and analyze by my company's preferred data points; department, GL account, vendor, & sales campaign. I'm able to run monthly budget variance reports and plan for the future with ease. 2) We've begun using Cube to help analyze profitablity by sales job. We've never had such easy access to this type of info in the past, so this is a benefit I can directly attribute to Cube. 3) We're beginning now to use an integration with our payroll software to work on headcount planning and payroll analysis.

• Combining departments (components of an entity or a component of various entity's income statement) or isolating departments (small slivers) of an entity's income statement. We can look at specific departments of specific entities together, with ease.
• Splicing / flipping reports into countless formats. Helpful for users of the financial statements that digest data/numbers differently than the financial accountants who prepare the numbers.
• It is relatively easy to import data from our Jonas accounting program into Budgyt.
• We've had prompt customer service when we've encountered issues and they were readily available during implementation.

• Push/pull information across any Google Sheet or Excel workbook.
• Budget at a much more granular level (by month by account by the department by vendor).
• Custom mapping to allow for multiple cuts of the same data.
• Bulk range selection within a workbook.

• Inside setting up HR forumlas, it should give more than one filter criteria.
• Application got slow after putting the information of HR module and formuals, need to speed up.
• Selection of multiple companies with different GLs can be an option where it is lacking.
• Didn't see the multicurrency feature, can be a good add on.

• Limited to 8 top line dimensions. Although you can bring in as many attributes of data as you want, but I would really like Cube to increase top line dimensions to 10.
• The ability for cross level interaction within multiples cube would be a major plus once implemented.

Our organization has increased our level of financial reporting and decreased the time it takes to build a budget with the Budgyt platform. Because our budget managers have access, it allows them a higher level of ownership for their areas.

Incredibly easy to use and intuitive. Design is simple without lacking functionality. Limited learning curve makes it very easy to set up and start using, and with little practice it becomes incredibly easy to perform routine tasks, including monthly update of actual data, running and analyzing reports, as well as building budgets, forecasts, and 'what-if' scenarios

James the founder always replies to my emails in a timely manner, even if overseas. Has not passed me on to a customer service support team member. Rob was great with the initial demos as explored the product to see if it was what we wanted. Online documentation and videos are very good

We were fortunate to have the founder lead us through a video conference to teach our users how to use the system. Totally invaluable!

We selected Budgyt over other options because it is exceptionally easy to use, perfectly meeting all our budget management needs. Its user-friendly interface, robust functionality, and cost efficiency enabled seamless multi-department integration. Budgyt delivered the performance and financial insights we required at a fraction of the cost, ensuring maximum value.

Cube was just a lot easier to use than Vena. We took some time to look at Vena as well and while their product was impressive, our organization was not yet there. We needed something we could implement quickly, and in today's day and age I think that is a very important quality to have. Start up and early stage companies do not have the luxury of implementation teams and massive IT resources so Cube was a huge help.

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.
