Centage

Centage, formerly Planning Maestro, is a cloud-based financial planning and analysis solution primarily intended for the finance departments of mid-sized companies. It covers budgeting, forecasting, management reporting, scenarios, workforce planning and multi-entity consolidation, subject to validation based on the expected level of complexity.

Centage

Key strengths

  • Focused on finance use cases: budgeting, rolling forecasts, variance analysis and management reporting.
  • A modelling approach presented as formula-free, intended to enable functional administration by finance teams.
  • Well suited to workforce planning, personnel costs, and revenue or expense assumptions.
  • Version, scenario and contribution workflow management suited to iterative budgeting cycles.
  • Continuity with spreadsheet-based practices through worksheets, while seeking to provide a more shared and governed framework.

Where this solution fits

  • Mid-sized companies looking to replace scattered budget files with a structured financial process.
  • Finance departments seeking a tool primarily driven by finance, without launching an extensive EPM programme from the outset.
  • Projects focused on the annual budget, periodic reforecasts, rolling forecasts and internal reporting.
  • Organisations needing to link financial planning and workforce planning, particularly when payroll data is a significant source.
  • Groups with a few entities and management consolidation or multi-entity planning needs that remain within a manageable level of complexity.

Points to validate

  • Advanced features, integrations, enhanced security and multi-entity consolidation depend on the edition selected.
  • Complex statutory consolidation must be validated: eliminations, multiple accounting standards, reconciliations and audit trail.
  • French presence, languages, hosting and data localisation must be confirmed.
