TORONTO, September 22, 2010 -- Easy-to-Understand Handbook Explains Problems With Using Spreadsheets and Describes the Ideal Solution
Clarity Systems, a leader in corporate performance management solutions, today announced the launch of the Clarity Systems Limited Edition guide to Budgeting, Planning and Forecasting for DummiesŪ. This newly released instructional book is for readers looking to quickly understand the risks of using spreadsheets for enterprise budgeting, planning and forecasting and the major benefits of moving to software applications that leverage Microsoft Excel as the user interface.
"Spreadsheets were never designed to be a platform for repetitive, collaborative company-wide processes such as budgeting, planning and forecasting. Companies should look to leverage a single, web-based and Excel-compatible software solution that utilizes their existing databases and financial models," said Mark Nashman, President & CTO, Clarity Systems.
This reference document helps CFOs who are looking to improve their budgeting, planning and forecasting processes. The four chapters in the book examine the concepts behind each of these processes, evaluate the use of spreadsheets for these tasks, and present the elements of the ideal software solution. The solution guide concludes with checklists to use when evaluating potential software solutions. Copies of the book are available online by visiting http://www.claritysystems.com/us/lp/Pages/dummiesch1pr.aspx.
