Cube

What is Cube?

Cube is a spreadsheet native FP&A tool that connects your systems to Excel and Google Sheets, with fast setup, suited to lean finance teams. Founded in 2018, it lets finance teams keep planning and reporting in the spreadsheets they already use, Excel or Google Sheets, while Cube connects to accounting, ERP and other systems to pull actuals, centralise data, and add controls and automation, so teams get FP&A capability without a heavy platform or long implementation. Designed for lean finance teams that want speed and spreadsheets, Cube offers quicker, lighter FP&A than enterprise platforms. For fast FP&A on spreadsheets, Cube is a leading choice.

Cube's distinction is being spreadsheet native across both Excel and Google Sheets, with fast setup for lean teams. Rather than a heavy platform or long implementation, it connects systems to the spreadsheets teams already use and adds data, controls and automation quickly, suiting smaller finance teams that want FP&A without the cost and effort of enterprise tools. That speed, spreadsheet flexibility and lighter footprint set it apart.

Who Cube is best for

Cube is best for lean finance teams at small and mid sized or growing companies that want fast, spreadsheet native FP&A connecting their systems to Excel or Google Sheets, without heavy implementation. It suits teams wanting speed and spreadsheets. It is a weaker fit for large enterprises needing powerful connected planning or consolidation, where Anaplan, Planful or OneStream fit, or teams wanting a fully managed dedicated platform.

Key features

The core strengths are spreadsheet native planning in Excel and Google Sheets, connections to accounting, ERP and data systems to pull actuals, centralised data, and controls and automation, with fast setup. Cube offers reporting, scenario analysis, and collaboration on spreadsheets. Its spreadsheet native flexibility across Excel and Google Sheets, fast implementation, and lighter footprint for lean teams are its defining advantages.

Cube pricing

Cube is priced from around 1,500 US dollars a month, more accessible than most enterprise FP&A platforms, with tiers scaling by features and users and custom pricing for larger needs. Its relatively transparent, lower entry pricing suits lean finance teams. Because pricing scales with scope, model your team and needs. Confirm current figures on the Cube pricing page.

Integrations and ecosystem

Cube integrates with accounting and ERP systems, data sources, and both Excel and Google Sheets, so actuals and data flow into spreadsheet based planning. Its integrations across common finance systems and both major spreadsheet tools let lean teams connect FP&A to their data quickly, central to its value as a fast, spreadsheet native FP&A tool.

Cube and fast setup

Fast, lightweight setup is Cube's signature: it connects systems to the spreadsheets teams already use and adds data and controls quickly, avoiding the long implementations of enterprise FP&A platforms, so lean finance teams get up and running fast. For smaller teams that want FP&A speed without heavy cost and effort, this fast, spreadsheet native approach is the main reason to choose Cube.

Ease of use and support

Cube is approachable for finance teams, keeping them in familiar spreadsheets with quick setup and support suited to lean teams. Its G2 reviews praise the spreadsheet native approach, fast setup and integrations, with less power and depth than enterprise platforms the main consideration for large, complex needs.

Is Cube worth it?

For lean finance teams at small and mid sized or growing companies that want fast, spreadsheet native FP&A connecting their systems to Excel or Google Sheets without heavy implementation, Cube is an excellent, accessible choice. The main caution is that large enterprises needing powerful connected planning or consolidation should consider Anaplan, Planful or OneStream, but for fast FP&A on spreadsheets Cube excels.
