Prophix is currently being used to budget, report profit and loss statements, and do variance analysis for over 20 programs. We also use Prophix for reporting on personnel planning and cross charging between departments. We integrate Prophix with our production databases to show real time production trends. Over 20 program managers interact with Prophix and make business decisions using the most up to date, relevant data. Prophix saves a lot of time for our company and helps provide the most relevant data for business decisions.
  • Prophix helps tremendously with the budgeting process. It allows scalability when we add new programs. The flexibility of Prophix allows for an accurate and efficient budgeting process.
  • Prophix does an excellent job at building data integrations, which helps feed the most recent data into Prophix with no manual processes.
  • Prophix's customer support team is amazing and is always willing to help you build more functionality into the product as time goes on and additional needs are identified.
  • I can't identify any areas where Prophix has room for improvement. The product works great!
I think Prophix is best suited for budgeting, reporting actuals, and looking for variance analysis. Prophix is also great at showing real time production data to managers and the executive team. Prophix is amazing to use when changes occur within your organization and flexibility is desired. I would highly recommend Prophix to any organization.

We use Prophix in three ways: (1) as an integral part of our budgeting/forecasting process; (2) to report monthly financial results; and (3) for other reporting purposes, like headcount and turnover, and operations-related information.
  • Budgeting and forecasting; it's built with a workflow and input capabilities to make these 10X more efficient than through collecting spreadsheets.
  • Reporting financial results; it's vastly improved our reporting capabilities, both in terms of looks and ease of use for the end-user, and the capability to distribute them on a much quicker basis.
  • Their dashboard capabilities are very impressive; we use this on a regular basis as well, and I'm regularly tweaking the dashboard for different parts of the organization.
  • Some Excel feature aren't available in their templates, or are a slightly different format.
  • I'd love to see template reporting be able to focus in on specific cross-combinations.
  • The dashboard graphs aren't as flexible as excel graphs.
Probably a 9. I don't know if it would be the best solution for EVERYONE, but it sure would be a great solution for most in my opinion. I think most small-medium and medium-sized organizations would be perfect for it.

Prophix is available across the whole organization and is currently set up for real time reporting of actual results vs budget ... the Prophix platform is web based and is accessed via the internet ... financial results are now more available and more timely for the decision makers and their direct reports.
  • Prophix platform creates a more open and collaborative budget process
  • Real time reports identify customer service issues quicker
  • Real time reports are custom to the decision maker and his direct reports
  • The web based platform is readily accessible
  • Would like to see more Cloud 365 abilities
  • Prophix online learning should be more available to all the users with subscription
  • Prophix could have more interactive choices within the reporting platform ... a distributed dynamic "read only" type report for Decision Makers with multiple responsibilities ... a PDF type report with drop down choices that auto upload the read only report.
Prophix is well suited for accessibility and real time information sharing ... the report users receive the most benefit ... the key for the admin and the super users is to see something more familiar in the report creating process ... would be wonderful if the Cloud 365 capabilities are more similar where the reports could be generated in another program (Cloud 365) and Prophix provide the portal to translate the shared platform into the Admin Prophix account. Data visualization in the Daily Dashboard could also be an area for improvement if the Cloud partners have better capabilities for visual reporting ... these same capabilities should already be available.

We use Prophix for our financial reporting and to construct our company budgets.
  • Reporting output is excellent - what you see on the screen will print the way you see it or if you send it to excel, it will look in Excel like you view on the screen. This saves time from having to manipulate reports.
  • It is easy to navigate and find what you are looking for. The learning curve was less than I have experienced with other software and the training was great so that I understand how the software works. This is helpful when trying to configure the software to your needs.
  • Their process manager works well for moving and copying data from one cube to another. We changed our department numbers in our ERP and so I had to create the new departments in Prophix and move the data to these departments and delete the old one. It was a bit of a process to setup but running the process went well and accomplished the task.
  • Prophix doesn't do well when it comes to balance sheet and cash flow budgeting. Their support staff doesn't seem to know much about them either, so you have I have had to try to figure a lot of it out myself.
  • Drilling in to find details of a number you have in a report is difficult and time consuming. When you analyze it pulls up all the data in your report and then you have to find the number you want more detail on to explore more there. Rather than just pulling in data that pertains to the number you want to explore. However, they do have drill across and for some reason this didn't get setup in our install. This is supposed to help but I have not used it yet.
  • Copying a budget is cumbersome and time consuming. In my previous software all I had to do was click copy, select a few options, and it would copy ALL the parts of my budget and create a new one. Prophix has so many pieces I have to update or copy each piece, so it is quite a process create a copy of a budget. I like to create a copy of a budget, make a few tweaks and I have a new budget fairly quickly.
Prophix is well suited for reporting, easily getting reports to display as you want them, and easily distributing reports to users.

We currently use Prophix for all our financial planning and reporting. It is used primarily only within the finance department. Our main use is the Prophix for Excel plugin as we tend to do all our reporting and analysis in excel and use that plug in to read/write data to and from the system.
  • Financial Reporting
  • Version Control
  • Ad Hoc Analysis
  • Prophix for Excel Stability
  • Data Import Functions
  • User Interface
Prophix is great for slicing and dicing data that is available but perhaps not in the form or function required. It allows me to see the same data that is in my ERP system but from a different angle. My only hesitation to fully recommend the product would be their apparent reliance on O365 going forward. All new builds/updates are for the cloud based system and the use of O365 as your office interface. Totally leave us that want On Prem, and own our own MS licenses out in the cold.

Prophix is being used for our financial reporting, planning/forecasting and hopefully on down the road for dashboards, detail sales reporting, etc.

The finance department is the main user of prophix, however, line departments are asked to input plan and forecast data for review and consolidation.

Prophix allows us to maintain current and historical data that was previously being handled by excel spreadsheets. Monthly consolidation of multiple entities, planning and forecasting are now done more quickly with detail and commentary that can be made part of the record.

  • Financial reporting and consolidations - flexible!
  • Planning and Forecasting - detail planning for headcount, capex, fixed assets, etc. and department mgrs. can input data.
  • Ad Hoc Analysis - ability to slice and dice data and drill down to transaction level.
  • Prophix needs to have a better interface with Excel for downloading, uploading, and analysis of data. Moving to the cloud (SaaS) and using web client solves this problem.
  • Report writing with smart client has a long learning curve, web client may be better but we are just getting started with web client.
  • Due to its flexibility Prophix requires dedicated training and use of consultants for implementation.
I can speak for a mid-sized company, once prophix is implemented and users are trained (requires consultants and dedicated effort by users) it can be a very useful tool to eliminate the use of excel spreadsheets and standardize reporting, planning and forecasting. It is flexible enough for "super" users to take it into areas of analysis and reporting that may not be possible for many such products, such as human resources, capex, fixed assets, commissions, anywhere a database or cube could hold data for analysis and reporting. Prophix is also cost effective, mid-market level, and opens up opportunities for companies that can't afford HFM or the like.

We are using Prophix for budgeting and forecasting. We have rolled out the tool to all department managers. They love the line item detail feature. They are able to list each vendor/expense individually to ensure nothing is missed.

In addition, we use the Detailed Planning Manager to track payroll expenses by person and by department. It assists us in tracking employee turnover costs and to manage our expenses throughout the year. It allows us to calculate payroll tax from a variety of different countries.

The Ad Hoc function gives us the flexibility to "slice and dice" the data in numerous ways to provide quicker analysis.
  • The number one reason that I love Prophix is the customer support. Each person that I have come in contact with has been pleasant and most helpful. They will not quit until the customer is completely satisfied.
  • Cost analysis - the flexible design makes it easy to perform all sorts of analyses quickly.
  • Managing personnel costs due to employee turnover.
  • Calculate payroll taxes - Prophix database is a lot easier to manage than an Excel spreadsheet.
  • Reporting options are limitless with Template Studio. Prophix frees us from standardized reports that may not be appropriate for our business. We are able to tailor reports to our specific needs.
  • We love to be very accurate with our payroll costs and the personnel module that we built will not allow us to terminate employees mid-month.
Prophix is well suited for a company of our size. It is a great tool for forecasting and budgeting as it allows for flexibility. In addition, the cost of the product is not prohibitive and it is easy to learn and use.

We are using Prophix for consolidated management reporting across all of our business units. It has helped us move from an extremely manual Excel based process to a much more automated monthly reporting process. The system is also helping individual business units with their reporting needs.
  • Combining data into meaningful reports
  • Scheduling of reports to auto-generate and send PDF's to the users.
  • Consolidate financials
  • Budgeting and Forecasting
  • It can be a little difficult to learn and slightly confusing when creating reports.
  • New product releases can sometimes use additional testing before being released.
It has worked well for our organization but has been adopted at a slower pace than we originally envisioned. The Accounting staff using the system needs to have a good understanding of report writing to get the full benefits of using the product.

Prophix is being implemented for budgeting and forecasting. It is being used in Finance and Accounting Department. It helps to address detail budgeting and forecasting processes, like Operational expenses line items, Personnel related costs (Salaries, Bonuses, Commissions, T&E, and so on), Depreciation and Amortization for Fixed Assets, as well as Balance Sheet and Cash Flow, etc.
  • Personnel Cube allows you to well budget for employee related expenses - salaries, bonuses, etc.
  • CapEx Cube helps to track capital purchases was well depreciation and amortization.
  • Personnel Cube is also a good tool when there are a lot of new hires activities.
  • When updating data, sometimes I forgot to put zero's in the account which no longer needed to have values. With "replacing existing" feature, I assume those accounts would automatically become 0, but they need to be assigned with 0's.
  • It is hard to apply seasonality for sales trend, the formulas are not easy as Excel.
  • Sometimes it is hard to identify the errors since the downloads are values and hard to trace back the formulas.
Prophix is a nice tool for budgeting, forecasting and reporting. As long as all the individual cubes or modules are set up in Prophix, there is no worries that someone will accidently changed the formulas in Excel models. But often you need to run multiple processes, not like Excel, which you just change the input and get the result right away.

We use Prophix for financial reporting, budgeting, and analysis. We have 2 administrators within the finance department and about 50 users across 23 other departments. It has streamlined our reporting and budget processes and allows our departments to access their financial information quickly and easily on their own.
  • With the Ad Hoc function, the ability to pull up any data, across dimensions without having to build a whole report allows for more efficient, on demand analysis.
  • Being unable to zoom in and out to quickly change the view while working in Template Studio is frustrating.
  • It is too easy to accidentally check/uncheck the "calculation definition varies by rule set" in model manager.
  • It can be difficult and daunting to learn all the rules, limits, and functions of the program.
Prophix is well suited for reporting and analysis purposes. We have used it to streamline our budget process and to build reports for better analysis of our performance.

We use Prophix for our budgets, forecasting and reporting. Our entire organization uses Prophix for budgeting. Each department puts together their entire budget in Prophix and then I am in charge of reviewing all departments. I make sure their budgets were created and approved and then I monitor throughout the year. Prophix has helped us tremendously with staying organized and getting our budgets done timely. I really enjoy the workflow that the software has to offer. It keeps me organized and lets me know who has and hasn't finished their budgets. Keeping everyone on task is extremely important and I feel the workflow helps with this. With so many hands in the pot it can be overwhelming sometimes with going through a budget process but with the workflow it makes it a breeze and our budget owners love it as well. The budget owners get reminders and the approvers receive an email when the budget owner has submitted their budget and it is ready for review. I'm not sure where I would be without this amazing feature. I can't thank Prophix enough for the help it offers in keeping things organized and helping with timeliness.
  • Line item Detail is one of my favorite functions. It is such a simple, easy thing but helps a lot with staying organized.
  • Workflows are super easy to create and make the budget kickoff effortless.
  • Processes - I love being able to create a process that will flip all data from one version to the next. This is so helpful for companies like mine that do multiple forecasts per year.
  • Detailed Planning Manager could be a little more precise for our purposes. I wish it could easily calculate taxes based off of employee locations.
  • Detailed Planning Manger - wish I could set people up with different merit increases easily.
  • I wish Prophix and Workday spoke well to each other. We have Workday for accounting and it is a chore to get data from Prophix into Workday.
Prophix is a fantastic system and I really enjoy using it. However, some accounting systems don't work too well with Prophix logic and it can be extremely difficult at times to get the two systems to work together. I would just make sure Prophix integrated well with my accounting system before using. :)

Our company mainly uses Prophix for financial reporting, budgeting, and forecasting. However, we do use Prophix for other smaller projects. The accounting and finance teams are the majority of our users. Few members of the operations team use the software to review financial information on a monthly basis.

Prophix was originally purchased to solve a budget need for one of our divisions. It was then implemented across the company for all budgeting needs. Since then, we have discovered that there are multiple other uses for the software, and we have expanded over the years.
  • Customer Support.
  • Implementation and updates.
  • User friendly atmosphere
  • Better exporting of large quantities of data.
Prophix would be well suited for any company that is using Excel for their budget or forecast. The software will reduce the amount of time that is required year to year. Also, it will reduce the probability of human error.

We use it for budgeting and volumes forecast.
  • Multiple users can enter information.
  • Intuitive product.
  • Esthetically pleasing.
  • Could be faster for complex templates with complicated formulas.
  • Updating time periods could be made to be easier.
  • Graphs are okay, but could be nicer.
Perfect for large organizations where inputs from multiple people across organization is needed. This can be done with accountability which is a big plus. Also, Excel templates can be used for those users that do not like to learn new software.

Less appropriate for complex statistical analysis. Also, graph visualization could be nicer.

Prophix is being used company-wide for budgeting purposes. It helps us to move from Excel and at the same time we budget it "Bottom-to-Top."
  • Line item details per department and region.
  • Sales detailed planning per SKU and item and calculations for Gross Sales and Cost.
  • Detail planning per department and headcount and benefits.
  • Expenses per department in very granular details
  • GL updates from ERP systems (we need to add the new accounts manually).
  • New customers if added in ERP system we need to add those in Prophix sales cube manually
For a manufacturing company ,if you have multiple level items per category, this is a very fluid and adoptable system to use.

We are currently using Prophix for reporting our monthly, quarterly and annual financials (Income Statement, Balance Sheet and Work in Progress Report). We also budget for all of our general and administrative expenses as well as variance reporting.
  • Drill down.
  • Ease of use.
  • Dynamic.
  • Ability for users to integrate with their ERP.
  • More screen real estate in design, data entry and report mode.
I can't think of any reporting where Prophix would not be useful. You can get as high level or as detailed as you would like. High-level reporting can also be drilled down if needed. Budgeting is also extremely dynamic.

Our finance team primarily uses it, but we’ve also used it to roll our reports to operations in the field where they can pull financial information on their performance of business they manage.

Operations uses it to monitor site specific financial performance. Our larger F&A team uses it for that level of analysis but also annual budgeting process and corporate planning.
  • Flexibility of data use
  • Process manager allows us to streamline
  • Report building
  • Initial learning curve
It is great for running complex processes on large steps of data. Some manual manipulation scenarios and calculations are still better in Excel. However, the prophix for excel functionality has allowed us to combine both tools to create the reporting, templates, and models that we need. It's one of the functions we utilize the most.

For consolidating, reporting, budgeting and forecasting. The accountants and executive use it for consolidating and forecasting. Our 25 different reporting units use it for report access and budgeting. Consolidating of reports and budgets was slow and error prone. All reporting was too time consuming. This has solved both of those problems.
  • Customer service.
  • Report consolidation.
  • Flexibility.
  • Model manager.
  • Chart accessories are lacking.
  • Time commitment high to implement.
  • Sometimes buggy/slow connectivity.
Well suited for high level reporting. Less suited for more general detailed reporting.

We use it for the entire company. We use Prophix for reporting, forecasting, and planning. It is used for all of our financial reporting, for our quarterly forecasting process, and for our yearly planning process. It is also used for any ad hoc reporting that our management team requests.
  • It is our one source of truth.
  • It allows users to monitor their expenses as the month progresses.
  • It allows the management team to monitor sales plan progress throughout the month.
  • Our experience with Prophix has been very good. Any problem that we have encountered they have helped us correct it.
Prophix has helped us to get away from Excel spreadsheet management of our company and allowed us to have one source of truth for our Financials. It also allows the users to pull and review the information that is important to them. Prophix gives them the power to review numbers on a daily basis.

We just implemented Prophix and are currently using it for Personnel Planning, Sales Reporting, and Budgeting & Financial Reporting. We will be further integrating rolling forecasts of Sales, Net Income, Balance Sheet, and Cash. While the implementation did not go off without a hitch, we are up and running now and are already benefiting from time savings.
  • Instant updates of all reports
  • Aggregation of data from multiple ERP systems
  • Personnel planning
  • Provide a list of the heavily used, but not so basic MDX formulas
  • More robust charts/graphs would be helpful
  • Complete integration of Excel functionality
Prophix was great for the HR department to create their budget. It also instantly updates reports with the latest information. It is a little cumbersome to create a report from scratch, but once done it can quickly be modified. It is easy to overwhelm the system with too much data from a flat-file if you are not fully integrated, but that is easy to work around once you get the hang of it.

Our team utilizes Prophix for financial reporting and budgeting. We have recently implemented a new cloud platform.
  • User support
  • Data manipulation
  • User-friendly reporting tools
  • Speed of data loads
  • Data management
The support team at Prophix was able to assist our team in the transition to the cloud. We had a number of issues, but the team adequately answered these questions and worked tirelessly to help our team make a successful transition. We have worked hand-in-hand to create a new user-friendly platform to assist in monthly reporting.

Prophix is currently used by our Health Plan Finance departments for budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting. Our use case began mainly with budgeting, allowing us to manage personnel and vendor-specific budgets for over 200 individual cost centers. Since then, we have expanded our use of Prophix to include short and long term projections, as well as reports and templates to display financial information.
  • High degree of customization
  • Intuitive data view building
  • Options for cost allocation
  • Customer service
  • Report formatting is clunky and not as dynamic as it could be.
  • Can be a bit buggy with process errors that do not answers.
  • Fairly steep learning curve.
  • Lack of centralized training resources.
I've already referred one colleague's company to Prophix, which they successfully implemented in 2018. Prophix is an excellent product for finance areas looking to consolidate their budgeting functions. The way Prophix organizes data makes it very easy to segment and allocate costs in pretty much any way that you can imagine.

Prophix, being a corporate performance management tool, comes in very handy and helps our organization on many fronts with financial reporting, budgets, & forecasting capabilities across the whole organization. It address and solves our monthly reporting requirements, our year budget consolidation, & collaboration efforts and assists with our forecasting adventures. It also helps us with better decision making.
  • Ease of Use
  • Flexibility
  • Easy to manage
  • Online community
  • Dashboards
Prophix is very good for internal financial reporting and bottom-up budgeting. It is not appropriate for changing forecasts with a lot of variables.
