Best software for financial controllers
Nine vendors with an Accountio profile, grouped by the part of the controller's job each one handles.
Grouped by job and alphabetical within each job. Accountio does not rank vendors, and a featured listing does not change the order.
Software for financial controllers covers the month-end close, reconciliations, multi-entity consolidation, revenue and lease accounting, and the evidence auditors ask for. The nine vendors here are grouped by the job each one does. FloQast, MindBridge and Trullion name controllers among the people they build for.

Common questions
What software does a financial controller need?+
Controllers run the close, reconciliations and consolidation, revenue and lease accounting, and the evidence auditors ask for. This page groups nine vendors by those jobs; which ones a team needs depends on where it spends the most manual time.
How is this different from software for CFOs?+
The two overlap. The controller's tools run the close, ledger-level accounting and audit evidence, while the CFO's stack adds planning, spend, treasury and the ERP itself. FloQast, MindBridge and Trullion name both CFOs and controllers among the people they build for.
Do these vendors serve companies in Europe as well as the US?+
Several do. FloQast has offices in the US, London, Berlin, Sydney and Pune; BlackLine has offices in 12 countries; Numeric has offices in the US and London with an EMEA sales team; Trullion serves the US and EMEA from New York, Tel Aviv and London; and DataSnipper is based in Amsterdam.
