Why CFOs are moving forward and leaving Excel behind

by Bedford Consulting

Advanced planning platforms leave Excel in the dust

In the 1980s, Excel was recognised as a cutting-edge business tool that opened up all kind of planning possibilities. Time, however, moves on and our business environment has transformed through digital technology, connectivity, and data that we accept as the norm today.

Within enterprise, spreadsheets are often pushed beyond their limits and hinder collaboration and connectivity of complex planning, budgeting and forecasting. But with an advanced, cloud-based planning platform, CFOs can achieve increased visibility across the business, leading to cross-functional efficiencies and greater profitability.
