    Forecastr
    Forecastr is great for any company who is looking to have clarity like never before on their finances, but it may be especially helpful for startups.

    I suggest becoming fully familiar with the program before first time use as it can become costly and a charge off to a client would not be practical.

    Forecastr
    I wish I found Forecastr years ago. No other software has been able to simplify finances with models and forecasting in a very clear manner like this, plus, with the CFO addition, it's a breath of fresh air for the first time in 8 years of business with finances.

    We contacted PlanGuru for a low-cost module initially for use on a particular client. It has been used several times since by my department for projections. It's fairly adaptable with our QuickBooks business clients.
