Overall Satisfaction with Budgyt

Our organization uses the Budgyt Software in order to create a yearly budget that has 50 plus accounts to monitor throughout the year. The product has assisted me with being able to create a budget with ease as our company was using an outdated excel spreadsheet that was not user friendly.
  • The software provides ease in making edits and changes while working with many scenarios that can be created within the platform.
  • The visualizations are extremely helpful for presentations.
  • Provides recorded training sessions to review at any time when learning the software
  • Creating a symbol to click on to import from the software to the Desktop version of QuickBooks
  • Reduced amount of time to create a budget
  • improved insight into variances from previous year to determine activities causing change.
  • used website with Board Members to work in real time to adjust budget for finalization.
The software is user friendly; training and customer service is outstanding!
I love the ability to create different budget scenarios!
I researched and reviewed demos of other budget software providers and felt that Budgyt would be easy to learn

Budgyt has been a lifesaver for our organization! The software is very user friendly when it comes to creating several scenarios for budgets and forecasts. It has eliminated the struggles of maintaining an excel spreadsheet that was not user friendly. The software is well suited for anyone that is looking for a user-friendly platform that is easy to learn, provides standard and customization options for providing visualizations to use for presentations. I have also enjoyed the training that Budgyt provides in a recording format and stores in your "library" to review at your leisure.
