Simple and Powerful

If you're forecasting and tracking KPIs in spreadsheets and its time to upgrade to a formal product, but you're hesitant to pull the trigger on a host of tools that require lengthy implementation cycles, limit your end users, or isn't flexible to encompass your business operations, you need to schedule a demo with Cube. It will help organize your existing chaos and scale as you continue to grow.

PROS

It's Simple. Cube takes in your KPIs and other data, and connects to your accounting systems. Then, connect to Sheets or Excel, create your output mapping, and now you have a single source of truth you can manipulate without worrying if someone is going to hard code a cell and throw off downstream calculations. Cube will allow you to give your department leaders the ability to create their own scenarios and forecasts, track their budget to actuals, and see their own P&Ls, all within a spreadsheet.

CONS

Cube is a newer platform, and as such they're doing aggressive feature building. This means that some functionality has been impacted on occasion for a short period of time. Thankfully, their customer service teams are on top of the issues and able to support.

Painless and Fun Implementation & Usage

We mainly use Cube as a way to store our budget (and consistent budget updates) and to do our reporting. We were housing our budget on a google sheet before and there were always formula breaks, manual errors, no audit trail, etc. With the implementation of Cube, we are able to have one source of truth and sleep easier knowing that our budget is stored correctly. I love that we can store each budget update as a different scenario as well and therefore be able to see how it has changed throughout the year. We were also manually updating reports each month with our budget from google sheets and actuals from Intacct. Now having everything all together in Cube has cut down on report building by days!! We hope to soon start importing our international entities financials as well to be able to see the full scope of our organization all in one place.

PROS

One of my favorite parts of Cube was how quick and easy the implementation process was. We were up and running in less than a month after signing the contract and the team communicated with us the whole team. The training was super simple and our account manager is almost always available instantly to help us with whatever we need. I can actually sleep better at night knowing that all my information is correct and accurate and stored somewhere other than google drive. It has also helped me cut down immensely on the time to create a monthly report book.

CONS

I would say the only downsides are that there is a limited number of dimensions your organization can have. As a nonprofit, we report on a lot of different areas and having more dimensions available to us could make things easier. On top of that, we show things at a very granular, detailed level in reports and having more dimensions would allow us to showcase these details more easily. It also can be a bit slow to run the imports from our accounting software Intacct to bring in actuals each month so I have to make sure I plan in advance to give 30 mins to an hour for the details to come through.

Reason for choosing Cube

price, implementation timeline, ease of use and flexibility, ongoing support.

Super Intuitive - Best system if your business is not ready to shift from excel

PROS

By far have gained the most traction with other areas of the business like sales, operations or marketing as they can intuitively use this embedded in excel vs a new system. Transition and understanding super quick and easy

CONS

Dashboarding still not intuitive enough like a PowerBI or Tableau No detailed project management tool to track progress of important FP&A projects like budgets, long term plans or rolling forecasts.

Cube x InStride Review

Cube has been a critical tool for our finance team to scale with our rapidly growing company. We're able to spend less time on creation of reports and focus more on the analysis and impact drivers to help influence decision across the company.

PROS

Cube has allowed my team to automate several aspects of our budgeting, forecasting, and monthly financial reviews. We're able to quickly drilldown into the details to see assumptions around our budgets and line item expenses. We have created templates that allow us to upload monthly forecasts in real time as we meet with our department leads.

CONS

I would love to see some payroll and headcount planning and tracking capabilities in the future. Potentially a link with our payroll system that helps forecast all compensation related costs by employee that we can roll-up into our forecasts

Reason for choosing Cube

This was my first use of a tool like this and I appreciated the simplicity of how to use the tool and the low price point. Fit in perfectly for our size company.

Flexible, Dynamic Planning Tool!

Implementation was very easy compared to other planning tools. The Cube team is extremely accessible and helpful throughout the process. The tool is very intuitive, and has helped us a huge step forward as a function.

PROS

Cube helped us to take a huge step forward in our planning and reporting. It allows the team to continue to work in spreadsheets (both Excel and Google Sheets), while ensuring accuracy of data and providing version control.

CONS

I don't have any major complaints about the software. There are a few small features we have requested (suppress zeroes, etc). The team has been very responsive to our requests and the tool meets our needs overall.

Reason for choosing Cube

Cost, speed to implement, flexibility, compatibility with both Excel and Google Sheets

Deep, robust FP&A tool that is also easy to learn and use

PROS

Cube is a very deep tool and can be utilized for a variety of business purposes including financial reporting, account reconciliations, budgetary analysis, etc. In my experience, depth and flexibility with this type of tool often comes at the sacrifice of usability, but Cube is the exception. Both the online portal and the Excel plug-in are very intuitive and user-friendly. There was a bit of a process to initially get everything set up, but the experts at Cube were very friendly and helpful in walking us through every step, answering questions, and generally going above and beyond to ensure we got the most out of their product. The online dashboard is very easy to set up and personalize and can give a great at-a-glace illustration of business trends or any other company-specific metrics you would like to track. As an avid Excel-user myself, the Excel plug-in is my personal favorite feature that Cube offers. Using the plug-in allows data pulled into spreadsheets and sliced and diced as necessary within seconds, without resorting to macros, power queries, or any over-complicated formulas that would otherwise be needed to accomplish the same task. Cube is an all-around strong product that will only continue to improve and I would highly recommend.

CONS

As with any software tool, there are occasionally small things with Cube that can be improved. What sets some companies apart in this area is their willingness to listen to feedback and continuously improve their product - Cube absolutely passes this test. They have been very patient and willing to listen to any and all feedback we have offered, and I can tell they genuinely care about hearing customer feedback that they can use to continuously develop new features and improve existing ones. The software is designed with the end-user in mind and it shows.

Cube - Ideal spreadsheet server for mid size companies

I am pretty satisfied with Cube overall. it is helped us in creating custom dashboards as well as brand level P&Ls for our organization. Cube is not only limited to Financial Module , but you can connect it to any module in your ERP and create dashboards as needed.

PROS

Cube is very user friendly, you do not require alot of training or technical knowledge to access Cube. Perfect tool for FP&A department of a mid size company as it enables you to drilldown to the leaf level information while maintaining the high level information the executive team is interested in viewing. Most impressive aspect of cube is that it allows you to fetch huge amounts of data within seconds and the recent enhancements cube implemented like 'remove 0 rows from results' is a major plus in reteriving relevant data.

CONS

The only shortcoming i can think of is that it is limited to 8 top line Dimenions. Although you can bring in as many attributes of data as you want, but i would really like cube to increase top line dimensions to 10. Also, the ability for cross level interaction within multiples cube would be a major plus once implemented.

A useful friend for Excel

Cube has been fantastic for our business. We have reduced hours spent on reporting our results, analysis into the numbers have also been quicker and easier to access. We are continuing to invest in adding more data to it so it can be a 1 stop shop for us. Additionally, the Cube team has been fantastic in supporting us along our journey.

PROS

Cube has helped speed up month-end reporting by days! What used to be an amalgamation of multiple spreadsheets filled with errors has turned into an easy click of the button.

CONS

Manually importing data - although it's still a click of the button, having to click that button a few times a day can be a little annoying. Although, I hear that they will be automating this feature in the near future so looking forward to it!

New Cube User

I love having this tool for budgeting, reforecasting and reporting.

PROS

The customer support aspect is superb. I am able to get help almost instantly most times when I get stuck with an upload or download of data or anything else. Either my client rep is available or someone else steps in. There is a continued effort with bi-weekly calls even months after implementation so I love the customer support part. The software has done everything I need so far to get my budget into the system and get our actuals in from NetSuite is simple so I can do Budget vs Actuals very easily or Latest Forecast vs Actuals.

CONS

I really like Cube so far, it has done what I need so far. I've been using it for 8 months since starting at my company to create a budgeting process.

Can't say enough good things about Cube

I can’t say enough good things about Cube. From their customer service, to flexibility of the software - it is outstanding. The ease of integration as well as support that you receive from their team, makes the transition very smooth and hassle free. Cube’s variety of functions and versatility of how it can be applied through out the business is worth the money.
