Customer Testimonials

"There needs to be ownership and accountability for budgets and plans up and down the entire organization β€” real fiscal discipline. XLerant's BudgetPak is truly unique in its ability to support a process that will make that happen."

Jim Perakis
Former CEO, Hyperion

"XLerant's BudgetPak provides a unique, plain English user interface that's much more user friendly than Excel; and could be important to companies looking for greater participation in the process and increased ownership of the budget by front line managers."

Craig Schiff
CEO, BPM Partners

"SMSC picked BudgetPak over other applications we looked at because of its intuitive interface, power, and fast implementation. Using BudgetPak saved us considerable time we used to spend consolidating and reporting out of Excel."

David Smith
CFO, Standard Microsystems

"I was very impressed with the depth of functionality in the product and the new UI enhancements are exactly what I was hoping for."

Paul Hamerman
Vice President,
Forrester Research, Inc.

"We are happy to be an early adopter of BudgetPak, because we see the potential to help our non financial managers get through the budgeting cycle easier, faster and with better results. There is really nothing else like it out there."

William Feher
Controller, EMCOR

"We looked at a lot of planning applications, and they all looked like common spreadsheet applications except for BudgetPak. We also loved the project budgeting capability, it’s easy to earmark spending and it makes for better budget reviews."

Jill Larsen
CFO, BGCT

"It's so intuitive and easy to use! It makes sense! You guys have done a terrific job of putting together a really robust, easy to use tool. Some of the other vendors we spoke with just didn't get that our budget managers are not all Excel experts."

David Lyons
Director, IT, BGCT

"First of all, thank you for the great new software! This is so much easier than last year. Kudos!"

Tim Randolph
Strategist Team Leader, BGCT

"With BudgetPak I was finally able to throw away my spreadsheets. Now I can do all my IT project budgeting in one place."
