We spent many months investigating different software for budgeting, and Phocas combines simplicity with performance very well. It allows us to make a complex budget if needed while making it easy for department heads to contribute to the budget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are using this software for the first time preparing our 2022 budget so we don't have any significant dislikes yet. We did experience a problem setting up the portion of the budget relating to confidential salaries but that was due to how we set it up initially which was not explained very well during training.

Data is presented in an easy-to-use manner, and end-users can't break anything no matter how much they click around. Designer is easy for admins to add and customise data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There haven't been many new features added to the core product. Development seems to be focused on new products that require an extra subscription. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use. The Flexibility of the Phocas Team to adjust the Software to our needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing that I do not like the Software is game changing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to quickly change Dimensions, Measures & from Data Tables to powerful visuals. It's easy to navigate & with favorites & subscriptions (it saves time building everything from scratch) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

That there is currently not a "Market Variance" mode, I find the Market mode incredibly powerful tool to identify quickly over & under indexes, its limited to only one timeframe, which means I have to repeat my query multiple times to get the end results. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to drill down into fine detail. It is very user-friendly, and the interface is intuitive. The controls to reset the system are also very simple so you can drill down into fine detail and quickly and easily come back out to start again. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When you export the data to spreadsheets or CSV files, it would be helpful if it was in a neater format. At the moment, the data is perfect but just needs to be tidied up slightly before it is usable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Phocus is very easy to use and gives excellent chart options. Sales Reps can get a lot of detail quick and fast. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No major dislikes. Maybe they could improve the exporting options Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Phocas is simple to use and is accessible on most devices. The UI is intuitive, enabling even the less IT literate members of our team to easily access information. The help desk is extremely helpful, and the product is continuously developed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Of all the systems I have used, Phocas stands out, so I find it hard to dislike anything about it. Perhaps if some of the configurable fields were more easily create by the user, rather than their support team, it would be more flexible? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Phocas is a powerful tool for any business to have in its arsenal. The ease of use for an end-user ensures buy-in from users. Too many BI tools require complex manipulation of various filters, whereas Phocas has kept it simple with click and drill functionality. Don't let this simplicity fool you; functions like Matrix view for quickly identifying opportunities and transaction mode for deeper dive information are beneficial.

There's very little to dislike about this software; my only suggestion for an improvement would be a designer mode for transaction exports. Transaction data is exported based on the order of the dimensions and the properties within; the ability to tailor this order for various exports would save time manually rearranging via Excel.

User friendly, intuitive, exceptional support.. even our least tech savvy team members can use this system to great effect. Time saving on customer analytics alone is worth the investment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be great to combine data from different databases

I love how simple Phocas is to navigate and how customizable the reporting is, I use it multiple times a day and genuinely don't know how I ever did without it, great tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
