Vena connects a complex database with Excel to add some power to your dynamic planning. But finance and accounting teams need more.

Planful or Vena? Let’s take a look!
Do your best work in a platform built for Finance and Accounting.
It’s Time for a Purpose-built Solution
We all love Excel for its ubiquity and freeform capabilities. But as your organization grows, managing finance and accounting spreadsheets, uncovering errors, and collaborating over email takes more and more time.
While Vena adds a database to support Excel, it doesn’t add many features, templates, or workflows specifically designed for today’s finance and accounting teams. This is your chance to modernize the Office of the CFO, integrate financial processes, centralize data, and add collaboration capabilities so you can plan rapidly, close faster, and report accurately. You deserve more than just Excel-plus!
“Before, a lot of the data was pulled together by Finance and collated into spreadsheets. Now everyone else does their input and we can focus more on analyzing those numbers rather than just trying to maintain all of the spreadsheets."
