    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.

    We have multiple departments where they use different sources and application to reports. Solver provided us with this solution in forms of Web portal reporting, which can be accessed across the Whole company, which reduces the number of reports significantly and uniformity. One reporting application through a single source. Our budgeting process is unique last year we had many account executives shuffled, which made very complex for us to reassign accounts and budget for their sales. with complex Budgeting templates, it was not easy anyway. We had to rework our template through 4 revisions

    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.

    Since more employees other than accounting employees will be using BI360, it is more user friendly than other report builders.

    • BI360 has made getting information to management much easier.
    • BI360 makes compiling information to make reports much easier.
    • Since BI360 is capable of so many reports, our company uses it for more than financial purposes.
