Overall Satisfaction with Planful

We used to report our financials through excel which was not ideal. This was a very manual process and we struggled a lot, Planful's first assist was to help us speed/streamline our financial reporting. Also, we utilized it during our budget season for next year. This helped us speed up our budget prep and presentation.

Pros

  • Financial Reporting
  • Budgeting
  • Excel Spotlight

Cons

  • Ease of use for training
  • Host classes based on our needs
  • Time saved
  • financial reporting accuracy
We are able to see in real time how our business is doing, beforehand we had different plants' P&L. Now we can consolidate it in real time OR pick different facilities and see them together. Overall, this has helped us during the month rather than waiting for specific team employee's delivering updates.
Planful is a "one stop shop" for us to be able to go through everything from just looking at our P&L or any KPI's or something specific we have on our dashboard
The price for Planful was amazing and it was exactly what we needed. OneStream was overkill for our immediate needs.

Planful has helped us with our financial reporting, we needed to have a software pulling directly from our ERP system (Plex) and this was able to do that. We also were able to use Planful for our 2025 Budget. Planful was able to pull actual expenses from our ERP system and we were able to set some of our expense lines with history
