"Great Experience, very good support and flexibility in terms of training schedule. "
4/5
What do you like best about Centage?

I like the level of detail a budget can be created.I also like the fact that after the initial set up the time to update the budgets for the following years is very much reduced. I also like that we are able to see the actuals and use that information for next year budget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Centage?

I don't like the fact that not all the input information can be printed in a report form. I also don't like the fact that the information can be easily deleted without any warnings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great Customer Service and Experience with the Product"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Centage?

Great customer experience. Our company uses an older version, but we still have the ability to create new dimensions for Post Audit Adjustments, pro forma reporting, and any other measure we decide we would like to compare against. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Centage?

Limited capabilities on older version so we only had 6 dimension capability. This was creating a challenge for our organization as we have over 300,000 rows of data per year to slice and dice. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5
What do you like best about Centage?

Budget Maestro is easy to implement and configure to your needs. You can also change or improve your budgeting and forecasting model as things change or you decide to get more granular with your budgets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Centage?

I can't really think of anything I dislike. We have the web based version so it is cumbersome at times to save files on the web server and then copy them down to our server for emailing and sharing internally but I think this is where most software is going.

"Effective Budget Tool"
4/5
What do you like best about Centage?

We enjoy the ease of use and ability to organize a lot of complicated data in one system. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Centage?

The system can be hard to navigate from screen to screen or instead of navigating to different screens it would be nice if more information was available pertaining the screen. I believe with the new BM release many of these concerns would be addressed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Five Years of Budget Maestro"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Centage?

Personnel level budgeting including hourly rates, health insurance, workers comp categories, vacation plans, etc. allows extremely accurate assessments of the 'people' costs in our organization; these costs account for ~85% of our spend so accuracy in this category allows for a strong budget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Centage?

System is far from intuitive; long learning curve and a bit frustrating however once over the hump on the learning curve the system functions well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
