Overall Satisfaction with Centage

Our main use of the Centage tool has been around reporting actuals. We are a complex company with multiple subsidiaries, multiple currencies, multiple geographies and several verticals that cross-over each other.
Being able to report through analytics has shaved many hours off of our reporting cycle.
  • Reporting through Analytics Maestro cube
  • Budgets with segmentation (product class & departments)
  • Integrated with NetSuite
  • Integration with NetSuite was slow to set up
  • Would prefer to have transactional data in Centage from NetSuite, not just daily summaries
  • Reduction in closing time
  • Only updates data from NetSuite 1 or 2 times daily, should be more during close period.
  • Increased reporting due to ease of Analytics Maestro
  • Aide i balance sheet and cashflow forecasting
I used to use an older consolidating product call FRX or something like that, very manual where accounts were adding line the reporting lines one by one....

Centage is far superior, the ability to create custom Dimension hierarchies as improved our reporting 100 fold.

Do you think Centage delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Did Centage live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Centage go as expected?

No

Would you buy Centage again?

Yes

In a simpler environment with less subsidiaries and currencies, set-up would have been quick, it did take quite some time, but now works perfectly.
Centage works great with simplifying and streamlining actuals reporting (and with budget comparisons). Budgets also allow upload which is quick and easy once you figure out the format.
We have many many budget holder, it would be nice if Centage had different user level pricing (perhaps they do) as most of our users only touch budgets and only 1 or 2 need full access.
