FAQ

Business Budgeting Software FAQs

Centage handles the budgeting work that strains Excel: workforce planning, dynamic scenario modeling, and inputs from multiple departments in one secure platform. Built-in financial logic keeps formulas, versions, and permissions under control, which is how Centage customers cut budgeting cycles from six weeks to two. More than 500 finance teams use Centage to replace spreadsheet-based budgeting.

Yes. Centage is built for mid-market companies in the $25M–$500M revenue range, and many customers run it with finance teams of two to five people. Pricing starts at $1,750 per month, implementation takes 4–6 weeks, and the platform scales as entities, dimensions, and headcount grow.

Yes. Centage connects directly to major GL and ERP systems, including QuickBooks Online, Sage Intacct, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, Acumatica, SAP Business One, and Blackbaud Financial Edge NXT. Actuals sync automatically throughout the budgeting cycle, so budgets and reports reflect current data without manual exports. Customers report consolidation work dropping from 15 hours to about 30 minutes.

Yes. Centage supports annual budgets, rolling forecasts, and scenario planning in the same model, so a plan built once serves the full cycle. When assumptions change mid-year, you update drivers instead of rebuilding spreadsheets, and version control is automatic — every change is tracked in one governed model with a full audit history.

Centage improves accuracy with built-in business logic: formulas are generated by the system, so a mistyped cell reference can't corrupt the budget. Data flows in from your GL automatically, department owners enter their own numbers under role-based permissions, and every version is tracked. Customers report eliminating version-control issues entirely after moving off spreadsheets.
