Treasury teams have streamlined cash pooling and now close complex intercompany books faster
Since Kyriba is more of a bolt-on, I suggest that more adapters are developed with ERP solutions, specifically S/4, as my idea for improvement. In cases of integration, the adapters were available, but the data sets had to be realigned. The structures in which SAP S/4 operates and the structures in Kyriba had to be mapped. If those can be developed out of the box, it would certainly smoothen the overall implementation experience. Additionally, moving open AR/AP positions from SAP S/4 to Kyriba is done as a batch load, meaning on request. If those interfaces are developed in real-time, so that real-time positions are always moved over to Kyriba, it would enhance the process even further because then the analysis is not contingent upon an on-demand pull request; it happens live. Tighter integration, and tighter real-time integration with the ERP ledgers, could help enhance the capabilities further. Tighter integration certainly is the core area for improvement with Kyriba. In addition to that, I would say that the adoption of AI could be another enhancement in the UI. The context I would suggest for its implementation is within the analysis of discrepancies. Obviously, not everything reconciles perfectly anytime cash pooling is done, so identifying postings where the match cannot be performed, leading to necessary settlements, would be good areas for Kyriba to develop further capabilities.

The use of data forms simplifies financial data management and input processes
The best feature of Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud is the possibility to use data forms to input data and allow users to have a template with the data form. For users, it is not necessary to go with a free form to take data or input data. My automotive customer transitioned from Essbase on-premise to Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud specifically for the data forms functionality. This is the main feature that Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud offers compared to the Essbase on-premise solution. Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud offers the possibility to use data forms for viewing and inputting data. This is the easiest way to perform these actions without using free forms.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"But once you start using it, it is one of the best treasury products I have come across in my career."
"Kyriba offers the best TMS on the market for cash liquidity, cash forecasting, net debt, and GL reconciliation."
"Kyriba has positively impacted my organization by making our work easier compared to the first software we were using."
"The ability to do transfers directly from Kyriba has saved time and reduced the effort of taking approvals from an external party, creating a memo, creating the template in Citibank or any other bank, and obtaining additional levels of approval, since in Kyriba, I can create the payment and only one person can approve it."
"Kyriba is the best software available, and I have seen a return on investment where the initial yearly fee is superseded by the transaction fees and tax savings we have on bulk transactions and cross-border connectivity, making it a very profitable proposition when pricing is done correctly and implemented on a large level."
"Kyriba offers excellent features, including its user-friendly UI as a payment provider."
"For month-end close activities, there is at least a 25 percent and upwards reduction in the time it takes to close the books, which certainly translates into money saved and fewer resources needed."
"Treasury managers have better visibility to their idle cash, and a glance overview of all accounts at one place is available without logging into each bank portal, which definitely provides better visibility and hence better use of the idle cash."
"Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud helped save significant time in creating reports for stakeholders and shareholders."
"The most valuable features of Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud are the many capabilities it provides."
"I value Oracle's flexibility and customization levels."
"They provide tools certified to work on-site, in the cloud, or in a hybrid scenario, and this flexibility is valuable for various business sizes."
"We find it valuable that all the features are combined into one system."
"It makes it easy for users to get through and see what they have to do next."
"The most valuable features are the Planning forums, the ability to do all sorts of translation, and the ability to move data about with relative ease if the coding isn't too difficult."
"The best feature of Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud is the possibility to use data forms to input data and allow users to have a template with the data form."
 

Cons

"Tighter integration certainly is the core area for improvement with Kyriba."
"Money-wise, I think it takes two to three years to generate the full ROI on that investment, given the initial setup of implementation is a bit higher."
"I chose a seven because of the interface and the support services we have with Kyriba, as sometimes payments get stuck during production or working hours, resulting in delays for vendors."
"Kyriba could be improved in the areas of connecting with multiple banks and managing various statuses."
"Something I would like to see improved in Kyriba is that on the reconciliation side, we do get payments where someone might send us a ten thousand dollar payment and then want that split into forty-five different entries."
"The experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing is that it is very expensive, as the licenses are quite expensive."
"Kyriba could improve their support, as the production support may sometimes be a bit delayed."
"There are a bit of glitches sometimes."
"The tool has its flaws but most of time (99%), it is the implementer's fault that you have a bad or slow model."
"Upgrades and patching are a pain in the butt. There are just too many pieces that have to be implemented in the right sequence."
"The FR recording studio that is used to build reports is clunky and awful to use. This could be improved a lot. The solution does have problems and limitations."
"The Oracle Planning and Budgeting Cloud can be improved in various ways."
"For HR, the workforce planning out of the box is complicated. For most users, it's not easy, and it requires a learning curve. It's not very user-friendly. It can be improved."
"There are some issues with block creation in the memory. Sometimes, when we run a calculation and a new intersection is hit during the calculation, the memory block doesn't get created, which doesn't give the correct result."
"Oracle response time for customer SRs is horrible."
"But there are some limitations. For example, the Attributes feature doesn't do cross-tab reporting based on KPI."
