GluMobile

For Glu Mobile to continue its trajectory of growth, the mobile gaming company needed a global perspective of its finances. Its offices around the world deal with multiple currencies, and Excel and other on-premises solutions proved too complex for users and too limiting for worldwide forecasts. But the multi-currency consolidation and reporting in Next FPA software delivered forecasts on a global scale. Robust reporting elevated the financial processes, which in turn transformed the Glu Mobile finance team into a business partner who now guides the company towards its goals.

Results

Visibility into data gives an increased sense of budget ownership among business partners Global scale forecasting using the multi-currency functionality Executives can use financial reporting tools and obtain their own for decision-making.
