Want to keep Excel’s functionality without adding more complexity or new limitations? With no budget vs actual dashboards, no formula stacking, and no real scalability, Jirav isn’t the answer. Budgyt is.
Jirav doesn’t show budget vs actual in one dashboard, forcing you to build separate reports and manually compare numbers. Budgyt’s variance analysis is a core feature.
Jirav can’t stack formulas – so you can’t build the multi-layered calculations real budgets demand. But Budgyt’s database foundation lets you stack unlimited formulas that never break.
When your budgeting software forces you back to Excel for basic payroll and overhead allocations, you haven’t really left Excel at all. Budgyt does it all in one platform.
Not with Jirav, if it lacks variance analysis, multi-layer formulas, proper user permissions and other essential missing features. Budgyt has everything you’ll need.
Yes: Because Budgyt feels intuitive, adoption is almost instant. It scales quickly and efficiently too.
Ready in 2, not 4: While Jirav takes 4 months to implement, Budgyt takes less than 2. No complex configuration nightmares, no months of consultant dependency.
Cost are predictable. As your organization grows, your software costs remain controlled and budgetable.
Both our finance team and our budget discussions have been dramatically more efficient. Automatic consolidation on the cloud allows our decision makers to view bottom-line impacts in real-time for much more strategic business planning.
“The best part of Budgyt is how easily formulas and other rules can be managed, used, and modified between budget years."
Now we no longer have to generate reports in Quickbooks and send them to users so that they can parse the data.
