Build budgets quickly
Create and maintain budgets across your organisation with a clear, structured planning workflow. Spend less time wrestling with spreadsheets and more time making decisions.
The right level of planning
Build budgets, update forecasts and understand your financial position in one straightforward module of HogeFinance. HogeBudgets gives finance teams the planning tools they need — without making them buy or learn a complex planning platform.
Everything you need to build a reliable financial plan.
HogeBudgets takes the core ideas behind modern budgeting and forecasting platforms and makes them practical for organisations that want strong planning capability without the complexity of a larger specialist product.
Reforecast with confidence
Refresh your expected year-end position as circumstances change. Keep your latest view connected to the underlying budget rather than starting again from scratch.
Model what happens next
Test changes to income, expenditure and key assumptions so you can understand the financial effect before committing to a decision.
Plan at the level that matters
Work with the organisational structures and budget lines your finance team already understands, while retaining a consolidated view for decision-makers.
Reduce spreadsheet dependency
Replace duplicated budget models and version-control headaches with a central planning environment that is easier to maintain and easier to explain.

HogeBudgets or an add-on package?
Why pay for complexity you don't need?
Other budget planing products are complex, expensive and often don't cater for multi-academy trusts. HogeBudgets takes a different approach: keep the core planing experience focused, integrate it into HogeFinance, and put broader reporting into HogePortal.
More complexity doesn't always mean more value.
Complex budget planners designed for organisations that need its broader planning, workforce modeling and reporting capabilities. HogeBudgets is for organisations that want strong budgeting and forecasting as part of a wider finance solution — without paying for a specialist planning platform's full breadth.
