    Income Statements per cost centre (actual vs budget) that has been mapped to meet my business requirements. The ability to drill-down to the GL level in each cost centre when reviewing Income Statements. The ability to group Income Statements per region for ease of reporting. The Budget module that offers flexibility and automatic calculations based on inputs make budgeting easier.

    If you wish to reduce stress of managing multiple social media handles from a single place, you can use Hearsay Social. Hearsay Social helps you analyze, automate, schedule posts and even give ideas for posts. Rather than multitasking, one would obliviously choose a single place to track your posts. It also fares greatly as compared to its competitors. It has a great interface. Very easy and simple to use.

    Facebook Business Manager is also good however it has some limitations like it's very difficult to remove an ad account, we cannot schedule shared posts and the user interface is a bit complicated and not user-friendly. I like the user interface of Hearsay Social. I find it very simple and easy to use. Also, it has all the features that you might require in Social Media Management tool.
