Overall Satisfaction with Prophix
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.
