There is no FP&A without Excel
(at least not yet)

Most statistics show that Excel is still by far the most commonly used software for financial planning and analytics all around the globe. Why?
Sure Excel has its weaknesses, but the all the alternatives have their own weaknesses too. Some of them are too robust or rigid, others are too expensive or slow to implement. Finally – and maybe most importantly – they all require learning a new tool and abandoning all knowledge and hands on experience of working with Excel and its features.
So what happens?
With all these enterprise solutions in place, most finance professionals still end up with using Excel for the majority of work anyways. Why bother buying and learning a new tool when there’s no guarantee it will do the things you need?
So how about an Excel-based FP&A solution, with database integrations, ready-to-use templates and enterprise-grade security and all without the usual manual hustle? Sounds good doesn’t it?
