Spending too many or too few budgeted dollars has real consequences for most nonprofit organizations. Additionally, most organizations lack the tools to effectively organize their budgeting process and their data. Having accurate match-back capabilities with actual results is key for both tracking purposes and executive decision making. You may need new budgeting tools if:

• Your budgets live in spreadsheets
• Your financial reporting tools cannot handle the budget comparative and forecast reporting scenarios needed, pushing budget reporting into spreadsheets
• You have a disconnect between your budget data and your actuals–which may extend your reporting cycle, diminishing the value to budget reports
