The Jirav team is very hands-on and responsive. Specifically, Corey was instrumental in helping us set up our first 24-month projection model in Jirav and he is efficient, professional, helpful, and fast. We love working with him. After investing the time to use Jirav and learn the basics, it's now relatively easy for us to generate a full set of financial projections and make iterations on our first model. The reporting section is simple to customize once a financial model is in place. I would recommend Jirav to companies that are ready to invest in the creation and maintenance of a detailed financial model and monthly variance analysis. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Jirav definitely has a learning curve and it would probably be best utilized by an in-house full time person at an organization that has the capacity to continually update it. Specifically, it is time consuming to learn the drivers and how they work, and learn some of the nuances of the software such as the staffing table and how to best use it efficiently. We also encountered some challenges when using Jirav such as maintenance to the software while we were using it, although it sounds like this should not be an issue in the future. Lastly, our company's leadership team/investors need to be able to review a financial model in google sheets so we had to spend a lot of time exporting Jirav reports to excel/csv and then back into google sheets, it would be nice if there was a simpler way to do this.

With Jirav, financial modeling becomes more than just crunching numbers—it's a journey of discovery. Gone are the days of drowning in spreadsheets ... modeling in Jirav is simple. The ease of running various models in a short amount of time is pretty amazing - so much easier than rebuilding each time in Excel. Also - outstanding customer support ... advocates versus salespeople!! BIG WIN. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
No downsides yet. Love the ease of use - feel the team is there to answer questions when needed. Takes a little time to be saavy in building. All very dependent on taking time for the initial setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The tool is good and they are constantly improving. The customer service is very good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
If anything, it's not as intuitive as other products in the marketplace Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
One of the standout features of Jirav is the ability to create dynamic budgets and folling forecasts. The platform is extremely user friendly and the roboost reporting tools make a great choice for businesses to enhance their financial managment process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The only critique I would have for the platform is the complexity of using the software and the learning curve required to use the system. However, I feel that Jirav is taking steps to rectify this by one on one training and groups you can joing to get help. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I'm a BIG fan of Jirav. I love that the platform was quick and easy to connect to my financial systems and now auto-populates my plan with actuals. Running budget-to-actual and plan-to-plan comparisons takes a fraction of the time compared to the spreadsheets I've been running for the last 25 years. I can literally produce reports in minutes that used to take hours if not days. The power of Jirav reveals itself more and more the longer you use it. I absolutely love how nible it feels to be able to change assumptions and views on the fly, answering questions in meetings that used to be met with "I'll get back to you on that" and send me back to my office for late night modeling.

It's a learning curve like anything else so you've gotta dig in. You get what you put into it. The customer success team is second to none. Honestly, they could not be any better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Easy to use and update information for changes on the fly! I sue for both QBO and NetSuite clients for monthly financials as well as budgeting and forecasting.
Multi-year forecasting is easy. There are a lot of different ways to reach the same result so it is flexible as well.
Program helps to get clients more engaged in monthly financial discussions and planning for the future. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It can be difficulat to see full screen to the right without scrolling to the bottom of a statement and then scrolling right and moving back up. A scroll bar at the top of the report as well as the bottom would be helpful! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It lays out the data in a visually pleasing way, allows for graphs that can be easily exported and I appreciate it easily integrated with Rippling. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It takes some time to build the models to talk to each other constantly something beginners may struggle with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Can get started using it with a client quickly. Can do 3-statement financial projections. Handles departmental budgets. Can do both bottom-up and top-down budgets. Able to compare rolling forecasts and scenarios against each other. Great tool for analysis. I get a response when I need help within a few hours. The platform is stable and is available for use at all times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
When the client wants an Excel version of their financial model (typically to share with prospective investors), what is exported to Excel is just a snap-shot of the database; it isn't a functional Excel model.
The integration to TriNet needs work -- been having issues. The other integrations (Quickbooks, Xero, Google-Sheets, Excel) work great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I like the best about Jirav is the rollfrward forecasting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I dislike about Jirav is that we are unable to forecast by revenue product and item. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The integration of Jirav has had a substantial positive impact on our financial planning processes. By consolidating data from various sources, our capacity to predict future financial trends and oversee budgets, which are vital aspects of our business strategies, has markedly improved. The intuitive dashboards and reports have furnished us with extensive insights. Furthermore, the real-time updates guarantee that we have access to the most up-to-date information, enabling timely and well-informed decision-making. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Jirav may be hard to use for people new to it or not familiar with money software. Making it easier to use and giving more help would really help our team use it more. Giving good tutorials or making the interface simpler would make it faster for people to learn. That would make Jirav's features easier to use for more people.
