## Reviews

### "Forecast 5 Review" — 4.0/5

> **Camille** | *8 May 2019* | Real Estate | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Consolidation was the most important.  Also the ability to drill down to low level account budgets and to condense into high level account budgets.
> 
> **Cons**: Very complex with adding some of the data and not being able to move line items between sections.
> 
> Consolidation of all company budgets and connecting excel data to feed into Forecast 5 for sensitivity scenarios.

### "The best in the market." — 5.0/5

> **Mervyn** | *23 July 2026* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The Best forecasting product available. The absolute integrity of the links between P\&L, Balance sheet and Cash flow (and Funds Flow) give you peace of mind, and will stand up to the tightest external scrutiny from Investors, Lenders or Due Diligence teams.
> 
> **Cons**: An ouput report of data variables and assumptions would help users validate the assumptions you have made when constructing the forecasts
> 
> I'm a long term user of F5 and forecasting obsessive. very few products even come close. DO NOT trust spreadsheet models, or any of the "intuitive" AI led forecasting apps. A cash flow has to tell you what your movements in cash are (in simple language) and you need a funds flow report to demonstrate to the bank that you can understand working capital fluctuations.

### "Review" — 3.0/5

> **Paul** | *1 May 2019* | Accounting | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: profit and loss and balance sheet fit together easily
> 
> **Cons**: Quite clunky and slow. Tends to crash often.
Needs standard templates.
Printing multiple reports at once in the correct format doesn't appear to be possible.
> 
> Cashflows. I probably don't use it enough.

It would be good if it was online.

### "Excellent forecasting system the comes with brilliant customer service" — 5.0/5

> **John** | *29 July 2026* | Civil Engineering | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Excellent customer service, always available to sort any issues and nothing is too much trouble. Simple, easy to use system, but with powerful processing ability and insightful outputs.
> 
> **Cons**: N/A - there's nothing to not like\! I have used the system now for a number of years and there's nothing that I would change.
> 
> My overall Forecast 5 experience is highly positive, the product is good, the customer service is excellent and the business insight gained from the forecast outputs is invaluable.

### "Would I recommend Forecast 5 - Most definitely" — 4.0/5

> **Lloyd** | *16 January 2025* | Fishery | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Very flexible and great for doing what-if scenarios and is easy to extend into future years and apply percentage increase/decreases on a line or group basis. 
Love the hot link to Excel.
> 
> **Cons**: Two things - would be great to be cloud based and also for report layout to be remembered when switching between report tabs.
> 
> Overall F5 is a great product, can always be small improvements but certainly a lot more reliable than trying to do a forecast in Excel - plus you know that the links between P\&L, balance sheet and cash flow are solid.
