"The beauty of Jirav vs. Excel is that the formulas are already there. You can make more powerful calculations and know it's always correct. It gives you that computing power and accuracy and gets you to a finished model with less time and cost."
"I would say Jirav saves an average of about 50 hours versus building a financial model in Excel. It’s very easy to create a model, clone it, make any adjustments you want and present side by side comparisons.“
"Jirav bridges the gap between planning and tracking. Now instead of presenting our clients with Excel models that go stale the next day, we leverage Jirav's technology to help them manage their business in real time."
"Before, budgets were only focused on the P&L. Now we can see the P&L, and also look at projections two to four years out. What’s more, we can see cash balances, assets and liabilities, and see things to model out. That helps with tracking the cash we have on hand to ensure responsible growth."
"I’ve been looking for this software for ten years, across multiple different startups. I wanted FP&A for growth companies that can integrate with QuickBooks and analyze plan versus actuals. Jirav does what a growth company needs."
"I can't overstate how transformative Jirav has been for Cytovale. It unlocked the ability to budget and forecast in a way that could enable the pursuit of millions of dollars in funding and potentially save millions of lives as a result. You can’t get much more compelling than that."
"As a business owner, Jirav gives me a real-time knob to turn for immediate feedback if we add stores, products, events or personnel. It enables us to accurately forecast the trajectory of our business on a monthly basis, quickly add or adjust assumptions and validate our decisions."
"I no longer have to sit down, manually input actuals from NetSuite, and then link it to my old model. With our assumptions in place, Jirav does all the work."
"When linking things in Excel, breaks inevitably happen—it’s a human process. If you automate workflows with Jirav, you can feel certain that it’s always going to work out the way it’s supposed to.”
"We’re already much more of a partner for clients, rather than the people who just compile reports for them. We’ve already started to see so many new opportunities for serving our clients better—and we have more time to pursue those opportunities."

"Our initial process was this big Excel workbook on the accounting side that probably [took] half of a day to get through. So I’d say Jirav’s cut down our time by hundreds of percent, from half a day to 15 minutes."
“But both of us always knew we wanted to be involved in the forward-looking aspects of our clients’ businesses. We wanted accounting to be useful in decision making and creating plans for the future. Many clients would be working with firms that only focused on bookkeeping and accounting, and they’d say, ‘I’m still not getting proactive ideas and insights into where we can take our business.’ That’s exactly the need we wanted to address with our firm.”
"The main thing that you want to do with any financial forecasting is forecasting out the balance sheet So being able to move around and make changes on that side of it is the reason why I would recommend Jirav."
"Before Jirav, we had lots of data, but we didn’t really have information. Jirav provided an orderly format to visualize our finances. We can now see trends in metrics that we couldn’t see before. The Jirav dashboards give us the ability to see what we want to see, and drill down as needed to look at the finer details.”
