What I like best about Abacum is how it turns financial planning into something fast, collaborative, and easy to understand, even for non-finance teams. Real-time forecasting & budgeting – you can instantly see the impact of changes, which makes decision-making much quicker. Strong integrations – it connects smoothly with accounting systems, CRMs, and HR tools, reducing manual work and errors. Collaboration-friendly – stakeholders outside finance can participate without needing deep financial knowledge. Clear, intuitive dashboards – complex financial data is presented in a way that’s easy to interpret.

I really value Abacum's customer support and account management, as they are highly responsive and provide a direct line to influence the product roadmap, with the added benefit of having a US office for responsive support later in the evening in the UK. The modeling capabilities are impressive, offering ease in setting up and tracing model variables, which is essential for accurate and efficient financial planning. I appreciate the seamless integration process, which was quick and executed with support from outstanding analysts. The pace at which new products are shipped is commendable, demonstrating Abacum's commitment to innovation and continuous improvement. The AI classifier tool has been a game-changer for our budgeting processes, enabling us to categorize transactional data from NetSuite effectively for budget planning at a supplier level. Overall, these features collectively enhance the functionality and value of Abacum, making it a vital tool in our financial operations.

I love Abacum’s clean and intuitive interface, which makes it easy for my finance team to work with on a daily basis. The version management feature is particularly helpful as it allows us to keep and compare different scenarios and report versions seamlessly, ensuring we are always aware of what has changed. The ability to centralize finance data, which was previously scattered across spreadsheets, has drastically reduced errors and duplicate work. This has effectively streamlined our budgeting and forecasting cycles, and enabled faster production of monthly management reports. Abacum has also significantly enhanced alignment and collaboration with other teams like commercial and sales by ensuring we share consistent numbers and assumptions, providing greater visibility to stakeholders across the company. Additionally, the initial setup of Abacum was quite straightforward due to the excellent guidance from the customer support team, which made the transition smooth. All of these features and support contribute to making Abacum a highly valuable tool for financial oversight and planning in my organization.
