## Reviews

### "Great experience so far – I highly recommend the company and its tool." — 5.0/5

> **Fabian** | *24 February 2025* | Health, Wellness & Fitness | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The customer support and the reliability of the program have been excellent throughout the process of automating our finance models.
> 
> **Cons**: My only concern with the tool right now is that there’s still more to be done in the charting functionality to fully encompass some reporting features we already have in Excel or Google Sheets, but for sure is something that is coming
> 
> In general, it has been great—the support is excellent, they are open to deploying fixes for bugs, and they promptly answer questions and requests.

### "More than FP\&A: Abacum is our Business Planning Engine" — 5.0/5

> **Evan** | *28 May 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Abacum has fundamentally transformed our finance function. Its seamless integrations across our tech stack make it our definitive source of truth for financial planning and analysis. The platform empowers us to run deep scenario planning, board-ready management reporting, real-time variance analyses, and in-depth business reviews — all with a lean team. The flexibility and sophistication of the data model allow us to understand our business drivers at a granular level and plan proactively.
> 
> **Cons**: There’s a slight learning curve due to how powerful and flexible the platform is, especially when building complex models. That said, their support and onboarding teams are highly responsive and helpful in accelerating ramp-up time.
> 
> Our experience with Abacum has been exceptional. It’s not just an FP\&amp;A tool — it’s become a critical layer of our business infrastructure. The platform has enabled us to stay lean while driving accountability, performance tracking, and strategic planning at scale. It’s a multiplier for our finance team and for the entire executive function.

> **Marius** | *13 December 2024* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The user experience is one of the best features of Abacum. Especially highlighting the drill down function.
> 
> **Cons**: Looking at the forecasting model there are still some features that can be developed to reduce the work for the finance teams.

### "Transformative FP\&A platform" — 5.0/5

> **Anne** | *24 February 2025* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: We've been using Abacum for 6 months. The implementation team were great and got us up and running in 4 weeks. We've cut the time it takes to create and update reports to a fraction of what it was in spreadsheets. Reports and charts are automated, saving us time and reducing errors. We now have consistent data between our actuals and forecast, and we can link different data sources, drill into details, and create tons of custom views. The implementation team helped us learn the product quickly, clarify setup questions, and helped us find the best ways to implement Abacum for our business. Lots of new features released since we started. The product team are responsive and have reached out to understand our requirements more to put them onto the roadmap.
> 
> **Cons**: Nothing. They have continually met our expectations. Where we have encountered some product limitations, the team has listened and provided workarounds and/or permanent fixes.
> 
> Overall great - highly recommend for planning and reporting.

### "Excellent FP\&A Product\!" — 5.0/5

> **Brandon** | *12 December 2024* | Nonprofit Organisation Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: So much\! Easy enough to learn for non-financial stakeholders but powerful enough to do anything the finance team needs. Great API connections/integrations. Excellent customer support. They as a company are constantly adding updates/improvements.
> 
> **Cons**: Honestly there have been no issues with Abacum. If anything, because we're a non-profit, there's been just a few things to figure out since we look at things a little differently than a corporation, but their implementation team was excellent in helping us work that out and they've already added some improvements/changes based on things that we needed.
> 
> We've been extremely pleased with Abacum\! From the sales process (not pushy but very helpful/informative) to implementation to go live and these first few months of being live, the product has been everything we hoped for and more and the team has been top notch.
