Budgyt

I use Budgyt for budgeting and forecasting in our nonprofit, which previously relied on a cumbersome Excel system. Budgyt is intuitive and easy to use, though improvements in automation would be beneficial. The setup was straightforward and I'm very likely to recommend it, rating it a 10.

We are a $10million nonprofit and so far, I have not found a scenario that Budgyt is not well suited. I have challenged them on several fronts and in each scenario, they have worked with me to ensure the Budgyt works for me.

I use Budgyt to manage the budget and financial reporting for our non-profit organization. It allows us to easily view actuals and update projections using our cost-centered model. I love the ease of dissecting financial information through multiple dashboard views.

This works really well for managing our non-for-profit organization's budget. Providing access to our staff to view and update financial projections.

I was building the budget in Excell and I had to fill in each amount in the budget fields, which was very frustrating, time-consuming and with the risk of errors in the budget. In Budgyt, I got rid of this chore because I bring my amounts through imports from all the sources used for collecting information and I can focus more on analysis now.

In my case, the problem was that I had a lot of different data sources and I would bring this data into an Excell file and then build all kinds of spreadsheets and other files for various reports. Budgyt allows me to centralize this data in a much more efficient way than I did in excel, and the reports in Budgyt are very good and it saved me from the additional processing I was doing in Excell.

Budgyt is our financial planning and analysis software, used primarily for distribution of monthly financials to all department heads and for the annual budget build/approval process

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.

we use Budgyt to manage expenses and provide consistency in reporting. it is integrated with Business Central, our accounting software.

Budgyt is easy to use both for accounting purposes as well as the departmental staff who are responsible for their budgets.

Most important, Budgyt provides excellent customer support and is very responsive.

it is very easy to set up multiple scenarios. you don't need to be an accountant to utilize the software and provide input. Import and export Budgyt data and actual data is easy to use. customer support was very helpful in customizing the report format to accommodate our accounting software.
I do not use the balance sheet in Budgyt though it is an available feature. I also do not use much of the formulas in our current environment but did use it at a previous company.

ACSM uses Budgyt to build our annual operating budget, produce and view regular periodic financial reports, and complete ad hoc data analysis. Budgyt is very user-friendly and flexible, and easy to administer, which is great considering that most of our users are non-finance folks. Budgyt is very intuitive and easy to follow, enabling successful navigation and use of financial info for our entire organization.

Budgyt's value for the money is exceptional. the system is very approachable - implementation, initial setup, training, and getting up to speed with regular use was a breeze. support has been exceptional ever since implementation. the system seems straightforward and can be exceptionally simple if limited in use, or more complex based on utilization of advanced features. execution is great across the board, and the support tools available to navigate any uncertainty about using the product is incomparable.

We mainly use Budgyt as our budgeting software. Previously we used spreadsheets with links that often broke or were corrupted. We are able to set up different scenarios without overriding the original data.

The forecasting function helps with completing the budget. The software has many features that allow you to forecast/budget based on a flat % or a certain seasonality. My favorite feature is being able to allocate staff based on the revenue. As you make changes to the budget it recalculates and allocates appropriately.

We use Budgyt to create our budget for the current year. We use it for Forecasting future years and can even compare the forecasts for multiple scenarios. The reporting feature is used to created detailed reports specific for whichever employee needs it. Our monthly financial data is entered and reviewed on Budgyt as comparisons is much easier.

Monthly reviews are easier since it can create specific reports that are structured by however we want. Forecasting future years is easy. Comparisons between budgets is simple along with previous years with comparing them to your current year.

We use Budgyt to forecast and budget for our business and compare to actuals. We also use it for management reporting to department heads because it allows us to restrict what they can and can't see through permissions, rather than having to create multiple spreadsheets.
As more than 95% of our cost is associated with employees and contractors located around the globe using spreadsheets to forecast costs is extremely difficult. Budgyt makes this process easy.

It's most appropriate for P&L (Income statement) and payroll cost forecasting and budgeting. It's not appropriate for balance sheet forecasting. I would say it's most useful in the small to medium business space, probably not for very large enterprises. However, the solutions that are suitable for large complex enterprises don't really work for smaller businesses anyway.

We use Budgyt to create and report against budgets at multiple levels in the organization. We have integrated Budgyt with Quick Books Online to rapidly bring in actual financials to report against the budget. We also use Budgyt workflows to manage out budgeting process.

Best suited if moving from Excel spreadsheets for budgeting, and if Quickbooks Online is your financial system of record. Less suited for organizations using more sophisticated accounting systems, or with a need to report against multiple sub-ledgers such as grants.
