Budgeting and planning without the proper software is a lot like riding a single speed bicycle. It works fine on occasion – in fact, on a sunny day it might even be fun – but as soon as you hit a few bumps (or your business starts to grow) it will be harder and harder to maintain forward progress. Having a clear understanding of your organization's current financials and how they affect your short- and long-term plan is a necessary part of any successful enterprise.
Planning is the process that drives us forward – and finance leads that effort.
