Q: I cannot determine whether to buy the Budget Tool or the Forecast Budget Builder. How do you suggest I work out which one would suit? Does the Budget Tool perform any forecasting? I already use an Excel workbook for my budget. I do need forecasting capability, and there seems to be more charts in the Forecast Builder that would be very useful. Would I be wrong in saying that the FBBE is more advanced than the BTBE?
A: They are really providing different benefits. The Forecast and Budget Builder is a high level tool that provides a forecast and a very high level budgeting capacity (not itemized lines). The Budgeting Tool allows you to add any line items you like but does not really provide a high level forecast. Many clients use both together, the Forecast and Budget Builder to generate a forecast and get a high level feel of revenue and costs. They then use this as a frame work from which they develop a more detailed budget using the Budget Tool (if you already have a budget spreadsheet this could possibly be used for the detailed budget).
