It's our customers and employees who are the driving force behind everything we do.

We are excited to share that Phocas has been recognized as a leader in the Budgeting and Forecasting software category in Software Advice's 2023 FrontRunners Awards. This achievement holds great meaning for us as it highlights the successes our customers have experienced using our software. This was made possible through the hard work of our dedicated employees, making our first appearance in the Budgeting and Forecasting report a very special one.

The 2023 FrontRunners Awards employ Gartner's methodology to rank software products based on user ratings and product features. This demonstrates Phocas' dedication to empowering businesses through data-driven decision-making.

We didn’t want to put something out there that was too complex. With Phocas, it was just drag, drop and click, everything was right there. This was going to be easy for everyone to jump onboard.”

To be eligible for the Budgeting and Forecasting software category, products must be standalone software or offer budgeting functionality within a suite, as well as provide features such as "what-if" scenarios and forecasting.
