Runway provides a clean and intuitive interface for tracking our startup's cash flows in real time. The integration with Gusto and QBo makes it easy to pull in relevant data and sync to our sources of truth. The scenario modeling feature is especially useful for planning different growth decisions and understanding the total impact. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The setup process can be challenging, especially when integrating multiple financial tools. It did require involved support from Runway team but our CSM has been a fantastic resource! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

* Cautions / notes:

- I am an early user of Runway.

But, this isn't my first rodeo by any means for learning a new FP&A, accounting, or similar type of software in my career. Runway checks out as a best-in-class solution with strong people behind it.

- You get what you put in to Runway. Runway isn't going to build and maintain your stuff for you. You'll want to be a learner who will invest time to acquire efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I like best about Runway is how it stands out from typical FPA/BI tools that often just mimic Excel. Its ease of use is remarkable—I was able to set up multiple models quickly, and the forecasting options are flexible, allowing for both detailed and high-level analysis. Additionally, the implementation team is top-notch, and their customer service approach is refreshingly different from the norm in the software industry, making the overall experience exceptional. I find myself using Runway all the time. Integration was easy and seamless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really can't find anything I dislike, but it would be nice to have a few more options to customize models i.e. bold font, underlines, etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've had a great experience using Runway - the live integrations have made my life so much easier and the account team has been incredibly helpful and quick to respond. Implementation was easy and we had our operating model set up in Runway in a few weeks. I've actually been able to build and run multiple financial scenarios using Runway without a dedicated FP&A team, and have even been able to hold off on hiring a contractor with this tool. Updating a finanical model after month end close doesn't suck anymore. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Visualization customization can be improved, sample models in a demo environment or model best practices would be helpful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Total flexibility in building our GTM models.

We no longer rely on complex and brittle spreadsheets to build our models and collaborate over them. Our board pack now runs largely from Runway and is generated at speed.

We can integrate with all the data we need across our stack; from financials, to CRM, billing providers and sheets.

The whole team has been very supportive in getting us going and working through some speed issues early on. It now runs like a breeze. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Permissioning could be a little more granular. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Unlimited flexibility means we use it for all our GTM modelling, including the bottom-up demand gen model, sales capacity planning, budgeting, and forecasting. Before Runway, this was managed across four spreadsheets (each duplicated three times for the base, aggressive, and live scenarios). Now, it's all in one version-controlled system.

At monthly close, we get up-to-date marketing, sales, and finance data in one place to review and use for decision-making. We can quickly compare plan vs. actual and share this information with the rest of the business to help them make good decisions.

The new system has not only significantly reduced the time we spend on board pack prep, but it has also enhanced our ability to make better operational decisions. It provides us with a comprehensive understanding of the impact of our actions. For instance, we were able to assess the impact of 4 key decisions we made over the last few months by creating scenarios for each and comparing the results with our base scenario. This allowed us to prioritize the most impactful changes and anticipate potential future risks and benefits to our plan. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When we first implemented Runway, it was still quite new, so there were naturally a few things to iron out during implementation (mostly around a couple of connectors to other systems). But the Runway team has been very responsive and implemented lots of our feedback very quickly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Runway Financial has transformed our startup's financial planning by automating our complex forecasting and cash management processes. The platform shines in its ability to provide real-time cash flow insights, automated modeling, and clear financial projections without the hassle of maintaining spreadsheets.

What makes Runway truly valuable is its streamlined approach to financial operations - from scenario planning to generating investor-ready reports. By integrating with our existing tools and eliminating manual work, it has allowed our team to spend less time on financial administration and more time focusing on growing our business.
