Overall Satisfaction with Prophix

We use Prophix for developing our budget, forecasting, and reporting. We are finding additional uses for allocating expenses and end-user budget status reporting.
  • Reporting in multiple ways without much extra effort
  • Budgeting for personnel
  • Most allocation uses are easy, but allocating from one account to multiple accounts is difficult
  • Sometimes, formatting a report after changing something is annoying, but it has gotten better
  • Personnel budgeting and forecasting is much simpler and has saved time
  • End-user product acceptance is high
We went from another budgeting system to Prophix, but I can see how well it work if an organization is transitioning from Excel-based budgeting and planning.

Do you think Prophix delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Prophix's feature set?

Yes

Did Prophix live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Prophix go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Prophix again?

Yes

It is an amazing tool for personnel planning and budgeting. It isn't as useful for a form/process that requires a lot of writing; it works well for smaller bits of writing, example: justification of purchase, but for something like submitting a large project plan for approval, not so much in my opinion.
