- Colorado Springs, CO (1888PressRelease) May 13, 2011 - Serenic Corporation (TSX-V:SER), ("Serenic" or the "Corporation"), a leading publisher of financial management and business operations software for nonprofits, international non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and the public sector, announced today the availability of Serenic BudgetVision as part of the latest update to Serenic Navigator 2009, the company's flagship nonprofit financial software.
Serenic BudgetVision improves accounting for nonprofits by enabling organizations to better manage budget lifecycles with a preparation and monitoring tool that replaces spreadsheets and provides real-time access to financial information. Employees, including non-accounting staff, with access to the Web can use BudgetVision's Budget Center Portal to easily enter budget data, view available funds and review and compare actual spending to budgets. Fully integrated with Serenic Navigator, BudgetVision uses centralized administration to define global settings and allows preparers to forecast, submit, modify and track multiple budgets. Adjustments are posted to budgets within Serenic Navigator, and organizations can easily create different "what-if" scenarios of project and department budgets with access to stored financial records. Automated processes simplify budget review, tracking revisions and final approvals, while accounting for multiple currencies and conversions.
"Serenic's new BudgetVision helps Navigator customers avoid budget surprises and eliminates the cumbersome, disparate spreadsheets commonly used for budget planning across multiple departments," said Randy Keith, Serenic's CEO and president. "Integrating all financial information in one system with access to centralized data ensures dollars are better tracked and spent most effectively, which is critical to our nonprofit users." "BudgetVision was developed as a direct result of listening to the voice of our customers," said Serenic's Vice President of Product Management Donna Smiley. "We have held many 'voice-of-the-client' sessions at our users' conference, in one-on-one client meetings, and during online focus group conferences with multiple clients. Our customers helped us define their pain points, so that we could build a solution that met their needs.
"One result of this customer interaction," continued Smiley, "is that organizations with multiple offices, whether within one state or around the world, can take advantage of a decentralized budget process that eliminates the need to email multiple spreadsheets back and forth, then attempt to combine all of those spreadsheets into one final budget."
