Over 90% of spreadsheets have errors in them. Spreadsheets are often used by medium and large organizations for budgeting forecasting and planning as they are perceived to be free. However the time spent creating models, maintaining and consolidating spreadsheet models is not considered, let alone the mistakes that are made. Budgeting and planning systems help to remove errors and plan faster so that more time can be spent analyzing plans and re-forecasting rapidly.

A good budgeting and reporting solution will enable you to:

1. A single platform for planning, providing a single source of truth for budget holders
2. Speed up budgeting and reporting cycles, spend less time, preparing reports and more time anlysing the results.
3. Self service reporting, enable budget holders, to access reports and re-run as required via a web browser. Even drill down to transactional data.
4. Plan multiple scenarios and years. Scenario modelling in excel can be complicated especially when understanding all the variances. The ability to compare scenarios instantly is invaluable.
