## Reviews

### "Planful review - would recommend." — 4.0/5

> **Alisha** | *15 December 2024* | Insurance | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The interface works well across the team and everyone got to grips with it very shortly upon implementation.
> 
> **Cons**: You can’t input all data into the system quickly; it takes some time to do it manually.
> 
> This is a powerful financial reporting tool which we use to forecast and budget within the team. We have used this for a couple of years and will continue using.

### "Planful Effective but Gruesome to Learn" — 3.0/5

> **Matthew** | *22 March 2025* | Religious Institutions | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Planful does a good job of gathering aggregate data.
> 
> **Cons**: Tall learning curve. Hard to ‘make macros’ or create recurring data searches
> 
> Frustrating and not user-friendly. For context, this is perhaps the sixth software that I’ve had to learn in three years

### "Execeptional accounting software" — 5.0/5

> **Gideon** | *16 March 2025* | Media Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Effectiveness of the software in account progress management and account based advertising.
> 
> **Cons**: The software is very comprehensive and reliable. No dislike.
> 
> My experience with Planful has been breath-taking. The software is at another level. It has an automatic analytics and measurement system which ensures effective implementation.

### "Made cost-effective solution to achieve quicker monthly close cycles" — 4.0/5

> **Margaux** | *15 April 2025* | Hospital & Health Care | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I liked the feature of consolidation of financial data as this department is fully automated. They efficiently dealt with intercompany eliminations coupled with multi-entity rollups It saved at least two to three days every month-end and shifted the emphasis on the analysis part of job.
> 
> **Cons**: I found that there were certain practical restrictions in the development of custom allocation rules. Setting up logic for handling the distribution of expenses for multiple cost centers was not very flexible as expected, and more tailoring was required.

>
