"Fast Onboarding with Instant Scenario Modeling"
5/5
What do you like best about Parallel?

Parallel easily integrated into our QuickBooks in under 1 hour had our entire business modeled, auto-refreshing forecasts and giving us insight for runway, burn, revenue and more. Chargebee doesn't provide much out of the box when it comes to forecasts, so Parallel took it upon themselves to export the data monthly and provide updated revenue forecasts based on all the subscription data. They also give you the attention you need with their support team! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Parallel?

Nothing I dislike. For a non-finance founder, can't wait to see what they come up with AI coaching:) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best for founder-led finance"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Parallel?

My alternatives are long spreadsheets or no finance. With Parallel, I can easily model out future scenarios with very little finance background.

Basic & intermediate financial modeling advice is baked into the product, and the AI calls out when I do something that may be incorrect.

The support/success is unparalleled as well! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Parallel?

I don't find myself using it extremely often. I'm not sure it's connected to quite enough data sources to be a live source of truth.

Even though the Quickbooks integration is great, I would love to pass other data in there as well: Headcount, MRR, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Amazing product that gave me a vision for my finances as an early stage startup"
5/5
What do you like best about Parallel?

We are a small team, early stage and don't have an accountant in-house who will prepare dynamic reports for cashflow and budgeting, Parallel does that, I can confidently predict the next months and mitigate any risks. In addition to it's ease of use, amazing support from the team and they keep on top of the quality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Parallel?

I would want to see more features that recommend personalized actions to be taken based on my financials but I believe they are working on that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5
What do you like best about Parallel?

Set up took 30 minutes.. we connected to puzzle, created the expenses, pulled our headcount and we had all the data we needed to run scenarios... Our CSM jumps on calls, and shares tips before I ask. Parallel replaced my monster spreadsheets and stress. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Parallel provides so much more clarity"
5/5
What do you like best about Parallel?

I've been living in spreadsheets trying to forecast and spreadsheets can only get you so far. Parallel solves that problem and more. The analytics are very clean and I can clearly see where we are heading as a business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Parallel?

There is not anything specific I dislike, this is lightyears ahead of my old spreadsheets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Excellent product"
5/5
What do you like best about Parallel?

Parallel really helped us to dial in our model for raising. What would've taken us weeks in spreadsheets was made extremely easy with Parallel's tools, and it gave us something that we felt confident giving to investors. It's an awesome product! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Parallel?

There are a few features that would be nice to have, but completely understandable that they don't have them given their stage of business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
