## Pry Reviews
  ### 1. Not accurate

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Accounting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 22, 2023

**What do you like best about Pry?**

It was easy to integrate to Xero, I tried to consolidate as well.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

The consolidation was not accurate the cash balance did not match the books. I also strugled a lot with the employee budgeting. I tried the free verion and gave up.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

ry replaces traditional spreadsheets with easy-to-understand dashboards for accounting, financial planning, and scenario modeling, making the financial management process more efficient and user-friendly.

  ### 2. Best FP&A Tool. Period.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Walter C. | Founder and Chairman, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 16, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

The Pry team is the best at what they do combining technology & finance. Everything I need to do financial planning on Pry is there. If a feature is not available, I ask the team and they would listen to my feedback. If there is something I don’t know how to build/model out, they have knowledgeable financial analysts to guide me through. While I use most of the features, the modeling feature is my personal favorite. It’s flexible, yet very powerful.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

I only wish that Pry had existed earlier

**Recommendations to others considering Pry:**

Many people I know are not big fans of financial planning, but it really is the bloodline of the business and as a founder(and for investors), it is in your best interest to understand and be able to have that data on your fingertips. Pry makes it incredibly intuitive and less intimidating altogether.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It helps us to stay on the same page across teams and stay streamlined in our planning process. Everyone can go to this tool and look at what is missing, what’s happening and look at the forecasting. The scenario planning is also helpful to see how the startup will perform under different circumstances.

  ### 3. An incredible solution built by some very smart people who offer fantastic support!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Frederic L. | Executive Board Member, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 17, 2022

**What do you like best about Pry?**

Every so often. Once every few years, I stumble upon a solution that rocks my world. Well, it's happened again. Meet Pry Financials by Andy Su and the incredible team at this incredible company.

If you've ever had to build a 3 year financial model that works for your unique product line offering, complex expense portfolio and revenue model with monthly, quarterly and yearly recurring revenue, as well as a diverse team of full time, part time employees and contractors and more madness to put into spreadsheets... you know how difficult it is. Not with this fantastic solution.

I've searched far and wide for something like this. It simply didn't exist, at least not at this price point. Not until now.

https://pry.co/ is connected to payroll (ADP, Gusto, etc.), to Accounting software (Intuit QuickBooks, Xero, etc.) and allows you to build any financial model you can dream up. Generate financials on the fly. Beautiful live dashboards with scenarios and actual vs. plan and share them with anyone you want.

The best part is, their support is unparalleled. I know how hard it is to support a platform that allows you to build complex solutions. It's not easy, but these guys have mastered the art of breaking down complex concepts into simple steps. It took me 1.5 weeks to build my complete financial models on Pry. Now I can make sound decisions and know exactly what my cashflow will be 9 months from now with my projections.

Best of all. I'm ready to build our deck preparing for our first raise in Q4. The financials are done!

I give this product the highest recommendation possible.

The end.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

That I didn't find out about it years ago, nothing is missing, and the support is the best in the industry.

**Recommendations to others considering Pry:**

This may very well be the best decision you've made as a founder in a long time!

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It makes cash flow prediction, hiring decisions, and marketing spend decisions a breeze. I accomplished in a week and a half what I wasn't able to achieve with spreadsheets in 5 years.

  ### 4. Good tool for simple planning

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Wendy W. | Partner Ops, Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 06, 2022

**What do you like best about Pry?**

Easy to set up and good interface for syncing in existing data from financial systems.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Not enough modeling capabilities for advanced or more complex modeling, especially around revenue forecasting.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Pry was solving for our ability to scenario plan and consolidate department level budgets

  ### 5. Great snapshot of finances & modeling tools

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Kacie M. | CPA, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 23, 2022

**What do you like best about Pry?**

I value the high-level picture Pry provides. The diagrams and charts are perfect for providing key stakeholders and board members a quick snapshot of where the business is and the cash outlook.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Really nothing - it is a new startup, so the team is constantly looking to make improvements. But each time I reach out with suguestions they are receptive and constantly making changes to better the product.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Having automated cash flow projections directly from Xero or Quickbooks. It eliminates the need to export and copy and paste financials each month.

  ### 6. Pry - awesome functionality for complex work

**Rating:** 4.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Biotechnology | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 11, 2022

**What do you like best about Pry?**

The fact that we can run our financial models in an online, shareable, flexible, intuitive tool is so much better than a clunky Excel that only one person controls! We can all view the details, make edits, run multiple scenarios, export data, change time frames - it is super flexbile!

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

The model building is a little complicated but once you understand how to build the functions and use the variables, it becomes a breeze!
The file exports are great, but they aren't in any universally accepted financial statement format - it would be awesome to export a cash flow, income and balance sheet statement, properly formatted for use! Now you export them and have to do some manual editing to get it where you might need to share with finance teams outside the organization.
There is some intuition in finding information and building queries to visualize data but there is a bit of a learning curve. There are connections within the different pages and data points in the programming that are not clearly visible or intuitive to new users, but whenever I get stuck, I send a message to the team and get  a super quick response and more clarity on how to do things!

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are building financial models for our venture-backed startup. The tool helps us understand our departmental spending, the impact of hiring/spending on our runway and monitor spending (budgeted vs actuals) throughout the year.

  ### 7. Great platform and great service!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Lee R. | Founder & CEO, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 01, 2022

**What do you like best about Pry?**

It's the future - excel is old school and doesn't intuitively all you to do everything that Pry does. Smart forecasting, modeling, dashboard - its great!

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

There is a learning curve for sure and while its better than excel somethings are still not super intuitive. They need to invest more in a video knowledgebase.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Actuals vs. Forecasting. Received a better handle on our financials.

  ### 8. Simply the best. Seriously.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** 🦖 Hector F. | Chief Engagement Officer, Marketing and Advertising, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 27, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

The UI/UX is so intuitive, the process of converting excel to pry was handled with professionalism and great ease.

As someone who, frankly, is not that strong with modeling/numbers, it has made my life 10x easier. The team is very responsive and made it a painless process to migrate. 

I will never use an excel sheet again!

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Nothing except it took a little while to do the migration but that's only because they're onboarding so many people. Took about 2 weeks from sign up. No big deal :)

**Recommendations to others considering Pry:**

Once you use it, you will never use excel again.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Financial modeling, data visualisation, death to excel!

How easy it is to make changes, to compare previous months, provide quarterly updates and get a real picture of your finances at a glance.

  ### 9. Better Modeling Than a Hiring an Expensive CFO

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chris B. | CEO, Co-Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 12, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

Pry makes it super simple for anyone to build out financial models for their business. I love it because it gives my team and I the power to dynamically create and tinker without going back and forth and spending weeks and a lot of money to build out our future models with a CFO. Plus, being able to create SaaS P&L's is a game-changer for us.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

I wish there was more training on how to build out the calculations using Models.

**Recommendations to others considering Pry:**

Speak with the Pry team about settings up the calculation models FOR YOU. It'll save you lots of time.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We hired a CFO to help us build out models, but after spending weeks and thousands of dollars, we were left with an Excel file and no confusion on how it all worked. We wanted to be able to build out financial and hiring models for the growth of our SaaS company to help us decide when to hire, when to raise capital, when to invest, and sell the true future of the business given real data.

  ### 10. Great product that you can’t live without

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jimmy D. | Cofounder and CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 12, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

I like it because it’s the way I find it easiest to keep up to date with my cashflow, something that is critical for our startup to allocate resources efficiently and optimize the cost and spend of the company (even taking into account payroll).

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Nothing that I can think of as the customer service team has been excellent in helping me get up to speed and answer any questions I have.

**Recommendations to others considering Pry:**

If you're at a very early stage and don’t have bookkeeping set up yet, Pry can also help you with this.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

One benefit is to keep us all organized and aligned through a common platform and the ability to have the required data at any time in its most updated form. We have visibility to all that is going on, how much cash we need to generate vs how much we spend, to keep the startup running.

  ### 11. Best financial planning tool to replace spreadsheets

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Philip D. | Founder / CPO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 05, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

I was a spreadsheets guy before I discovered Pry. My brother and I are bootstrapping our startup and we were constantly calculating our runway from our spreadsheets.We didn’t have much activity going on but it was still time-consuming to maintain our spreadsheets. What I really like about Pry is how it makes it so easy and simple to know what our runway is. They even have 4 different types of runway calculations for different scenarios.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

It’s different from spreadsheets(in a much better, automated way)  so it does take some time to get used to the tool. If you spend the time to learn the tool, you’ll get a lot more out of it. I’d rather spend a little time learning this tool than to constantly waste my time on spreadsheets again.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Being able to know what our runway is at all times has been tremendously helpful. Also, their scenario planning and dashboard features come in handy when we are ready to fundraise and present to investors.

  ### 12. Easy to use and more insights

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Justin C. | Co-Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 20, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

It's much easier to view data than in Quickbooks and it integrates/syncs really well with Quickbooks. Our bookkeeper puts the info into QBO and we're able to see everything in Pry. We never have to re-enter any information which is great. 

Budgeting, forecasting, and hiring modeling is real easy. It's easy to click and drag information around and the formulas are easier to use than Google sheets, which is what we used to use for forecasting.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Nothing negative. If there is a feature that we think is missing, the Pry team is very responsive to provide a workaround or queue it up as a feature enhancement.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Scenario planning is convenient and helpful, especially when the team has been growing and we’d need to play around with metrics, assumptions and decision-making. After you are finished, you can also easily share with the team.

  ### 13. The best software for cash forecasting

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chris W. | Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 19, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

I was looking for years for something to replace my messy and error-prone forecasting spreadsheets. Nothing was good enough until I found Pry, and it has been absolute perfection ever since.

The UI is incredibly intuitive, and the awesome formulas give you all the power of Excel, without the worry that a single incorrect cell reference will cause a cascading error and make the whole model wrong without you noticing.

What Pry really gives me is confidence - I had Excel models before, but I never fully trusted them for the above reason - Pry allows me to make serious decisions about the future of my SaaS business with full confidence in my forecast.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

If there is anything that I ever think could be improved, I let the Pry team know and they come up with an elegant solution, sometimes within the same day.

**Recommendations to others considering Pry:**

If you need any help with the formulas just ask the team, they are more powerful than they first appear.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I noticed recently that my tax forecast was substantially lower than the actual bill we'd paid. When I investigated I found we had accounting software errors causing us to overpay our tax in non-taxable territories. The model Pry helped me build and forecast was correct, our financial software setup was wrong, and we received a significant payback from the government!

I can more easily dig into our expenses in Pry than I can with our actual accounting software. I can also check my forecasts against reality each month to see where I need to adjust our formulas.

  ### 14. Great customer experience, saved us from Quickbooks

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ansel P. | COO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 22, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

The analytics dashboard continues to get more feature-rich allowing us to see more granularity into our recurring costs and headcount expenses.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

We have a more complex revenue model so some of the pre-built functions and formulas aren't well suited for our forecasting needs.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We didn't want to spend much time in Quickbooks reconciling items and trying to export it to excel. Pry's product automatically syncs that data across our different systems and puts it into an actionable format where we can actually see where cash is being spent. Saves our team a lot of time manually calculating certain metrics like burn, runrate, and payroll expenses.

  ### 15. Incredible tool for FP&A

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Travis W. | CFO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 23, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

I honestly don't know where to start. The team at Pry knocked it out of the park. This tool is so good and would be useful to any business doing financial planning.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

I cannot think of a thing. I wish I had known about it sooner.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We were trying to project our cash runway. Pry was able to do this and so much more. We have been able to create variables specific to our business which have allowed us to create realistic scenarios.

  ### 16. Replacement for Excel!

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ian F. | Co-Founder and CEO (Acquired by Infor), Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 19, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

As a CEO, I have to do a lot with accounting and financial projections. Used to have to go into each of the cells in Excel and input updated data from each of my accounts and copy and paste to do scenario planning.  Now Pry just brings in all my account information and runs auto calculations, and the charts and graphs just change dynamics.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Would be great to be able to see templates for sales metrics

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I can not only see my financial projections, but also where I should be targeting and know where my status with my company is without having to do all the manual work I used to have to do. You can also add in as many scenarios as you want, so you can compare your default scenarios and all possible ways my company can change in the future. On top of a great product, Pry also has excellent customer service.

  ### 17. Perfect tool to help founders track runway

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 07, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

I like that I can manage all of our company’s finances in one app. We’re an early stage startup and Pry makes it easy for us to connect our bank accounts to track our expenses. We will be fundraising soon so it’s important for us to keep a close eye on our runway and plan out different fundraising scenarios and hiring needs.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Maybe better documentation. I don’t have a finance background so I’m still learning as I go.

**Recommendations to others considering Pry:**

Pry is solving a huge pain point especially for founders without a finance background. I highly recommend reaching out to their team if you’re not sure where to start.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

With Pry, I always know what our runway is even in different scenarios. Knowing this, I feel rest assured and can go back to focusing on growing the company.

  ### 18. Best SaaS ever!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Diego R. | DevOps Engineer, Financial Services, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 19, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

Best SaaS ever, really happy with Pry. We can forecast our expenses and really see where we are today, connects seamlessly with Xero and we can provide quick reports to investors and colleagues.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Would love multi-currencies support to add multiple accounts from xero

**Recommendations to others considering Pry:**

Totally worth every single penny and also their team is a pleasure to work with, they are always there to help.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a startup founder, the day to day involves a lot of stakeholders engagement, the shareability of pry easily allows us to provide appropriate levels of reporting to investors and teammates and the likes.

  ### 19. 11/10 you need Pry to plan your spend, period.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Josh S. | Co-Founder/CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

I love pry! it's the only way I've been able to predict where we sit each month confidently, and it's been huge for scenario planning around fundraising, project pivoting, roadmap development, and so many other things. 11/10 you need pry to plan your spend, period.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

The dashboard is powerful, but would be good to see an example or two

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Runway predictions with different spend scenarios. I can move so much faster with Pry than I otherwise would've been able to - it saves me time on having to build these tools out myself!

  ### 20. Delightful Piece of Software!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chris T. | COO/Co-Founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

Ease of use and ability to manage expenses

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Nothing comes to mind at the moment really

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Pry has been an incredible resource for us to gain visibility into our expenses which have resulted in tracking them optimally. Being an early-stage start-up, every penny of spend is critical for managing runway, and Pry has been the best tool we've used yet to do so. 

Instead of identifying and labeling obscure line items in our business checking account, Pry lets us organize everything in a consistent and easily digestible manner to stay on top of everything. 

Additionally, and when it becomes more relevant for our business, we cannot wait to leverage the financial modeling/forecasting aspects of the software. A++ so far!

  ### 21. The best financial planning tool --- replaces the need for google sheet planning!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** David E. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 21, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

Creating scenarios that auto update based on data from quickbooks. This makes the financial planning experience much more seamless. Don't need to go back month after month to update with actuals. That happens automatically for me.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Nothing, really happy with their product & service. The team has been very helpful in helping me build out models, dashboards,, and analysis to include in decks and investor updates.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Connect to quickbooks, create scenarios and do financial planning quickly are all big pluses

  ### 22. No need for a finance person to build a financial model!

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Joe M. | Product Marketing, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 19, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

Not having to hire a finance person to build a financial model; being able to model scenarios way faster than Excel; nice looking product I actually want to share with my team (instead of Excel)

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Bulk adding/removing hires in the hiring plan is quite slow (e.g. if I want to see what would happen if we stopped hiring, though I know I can get round it by using a model).

**Recommendations to others considering Pry:**

Pry’s great for any company without an internal finance person who need to do financial planning

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our business is growing and being able to do scenario planning and financial planning on an user friendly platform and in a collaborative way really helps.

  ### 23. Used by YC company

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Adam A. | Co-founder, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 19, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

Using Pry has allowed us to move super quickly during YC.  It's so easy to see exactly how a new expense or hire will affect our runway, while also planning for different growth scenarios.  I get a high-level understanding but can also dig deep into our chart of accounts and see exactly how our budgets compare to actual expenditures.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Would love it more if it could let me upload existing financial models from spreadsheets to Pry. Not a big problem since they offer onboarding setup service.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

My excel sheets/financial models always become deprecated within 4 weeks.  Pry allows me to measure performance against projections and expenses against budget in real time

  ### 24. Great for financial planning but it’s even better when you combine KPI tracking

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Legal Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 23, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

I love how Pry can be used to build financial models and tie in other metrics that are tracked manually. This enables more control and precision of the data. With the various KPI tracking we have a SaaS business, I can always dive in and see the health of our core business.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

There's a bit of a learning curve with the custom variables but the Pry team is great at enabling you with an onboarding experience. I had several calls where my customer service rep built the dashboards we needed

**Recommendations to others considering Pry:**

Work with the onboarding team and have them help you build the models.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

KPI tracking combined with financial forecasting built directly with integrations to our books

  ### 25. Single app for bookkeeping & financial planning

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Daniel K. | CTO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

Best feature for me is direct integrations to Brex. It saves so much time having to manually export and import into Sheets. I also really like the modelling features. Helps get a pulse on company financial health really quickly.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

So far not much. I think for what it's priced at it gets the job done really well.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Do some basic bookkeeping so taxes aren't too painful later. Also keeping tabs on company spend easily and understanding run rate.

  ### 26. Intuitive, fast, and easy.

**Rating:** 5.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Amrit  S. | CRO

**Reviewed Date:** August 10, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

I set it up once and now I never have to worry about financial reporting. Pretty easy, intuitive, and the folks at Pry helped get it done in 48 hours.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Wish I had this earlier! Spent too long creating dashboards in excel for many quarters.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

This solves financial reporting for my co-founders and our board. It's easy, you can see burn rates, and everything important.

  ### 27. pry is super easy to use - great product

**Rating:** 4.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Yash P. | CEO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 01, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

great UX, lots of functionality, easy to track

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

Pry almost has too many features! This means that ramp-up is more difficult.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

financial modeling, how much do we need to fundraise, burn

  ### 28. Great Lightweight Modeling Tool!

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 11, 2021

The Dashboard is the best part. It enables me to show the team financial data in an easy to absorb fashion.
Their customer support has gone above and beyond to get us set up and answer questions.

**What do you dislike about Pry?**

The formulas that you need to use to set up revenue, expenses and models can be a little confusing.

**What problems is Pry solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Avoid errors from building out large models with different scenarios in Excel.
Make the financial metrics easy to present to teams outside of finance.

  ### 29. Good Financial Modeling + Bookkeeping Software

**Reviewed by:** Adam S. | COO, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 19, 2021

**What do you like best about Pry?**

I use it pretty much exclusively for bookkeeping, which has been very good

Building out additional bookkeeping functionality would be great

I use it mostly for bookkeeping, which has served me well so far.
