Host Budget - Web based Financial Budgeting & Planning software

In today’s competitive business environment, companies of all sizes need to become more agile and flexible. By improving your operational and financial planning, you can achieve the agility and flexibility you need to succeed against your competition. Disconnected budgeting and planning once or twice a year is no longer sufficient. Budget ownership by management and finance alone fails to incorporate operational assumptions from managers who understand the details. Spending time consolidating spreadsheets vs. performing analysis and modeling different business scenarios is not a good use of time.

Business survival is based on speed and agility where budgets and forecasts must be tied to organizational strategy and updated as the business environment changes. This requires collaborative and integrated planning and budgeting. Designed to replace cumbersome and error-prone spreadsheets, HOST BUDGET is a Web-based budgeting and planning application which provides you with connected and streamlined budgeting, planning, forecasting, reporting and analysis.

Key Features and Benefits

Web-based Enterprise Budgeting software HOST BUDGET is truly architected for the Web so that the individuals involved in the budgeting and planning process can view and input budget information from a Web-browser.
Familiar Spreadsheet Interface within the Browser With an interface that mimics a spreadsheet, user adoption is simple. The spreadsheet functionality can be used “live” or “offline” and uploaded for later use.
Rolling Budgets and Forecasts
The elimination of “spreadsheet anguish” provides more time for analysis and ongoing budget adjustments. Users can review the current budget status and plan for the future based on “actual vs. planned” and current forecast projections.
Submission Workflows
Managers can resubmit changes to budgets previously sent to them. Upper management can approve, send back, and request changes. A graphical submission status screen shows who has the budget and what stage it is currently in.
Top Down or Bottom Up Budgeting
Executive Managers can create Top Down budgets and push the budget down to users, or managers and department heads can create budgets from the bottom up and submit budgets for approval.
Report Writing and Ad-hoc Queries
Enterprise Budgeting software HOST BUDGET features OLAP (on-line analytical processing) capabilities for easy manipulation of information. In addition, users can easily generate reports on-the-fly. Reports can be organized and stored together in different formats for easy access and printing.
Importing Data Importing data from Excel spredsheets and other systems is simple.
Security You can create security rules for specific users, and budget/forecast locking.
Integration Enterprise Budgeting software HOST BUDGET adapters delivers easy integration with your organization’s general ledger, CRM, ERP or other systems.
 
Strategic planning and budgeting should be an enterprise-wide process that integrates strategic areas of the business with the operational areas. HOST BUDGET is an integrated budgeting and planning solution that enables you to drive more collaborative and event-based planning.
