Float vs Nomentia Cash Flow Forecasting

Float turns data from connected accounting software into rolling cash flow forecasts for finance teams. It offers weekly and 13-week views, plus monthly forecasts that extend up to three years on Growth and Scale. Users can adjust income and costs, model scenarios and estimate new-hire costs before committing. Float shows invoices and bills with expected payment dates based on when clients actually pay. Its current accounting integrations are Xero and QuickBooks Online; a direct Sage Intacct connection is described as coming soon. Float does not connect directly to banks: bank transaction data comes through the connected accounting platform. Data syncs every 24 hours, with manual sync also available. Teams can comment on budget lines, invoices, bills and payments, tag colleagues and receive mention notifications. Admin, Editor and Viewer roles govern access. Float lists encryption in transit and at rest, multi-factor authentication, role-based access and independent auditing to the UK government-backed Cyber Essentials standard. The web service has no free plan; pricing starts at $105/mo (annual), with a 14-day trial. Essentials forecasts up to 12 months; Growth and Scale cover 36 months.

Nomentia Cash Flow Forecasting brings ERP, treasury, subsidiary, and bank data together to build and manage cash flow forecasts in the cloud. Users can organize forecasts by day, week, or month, and create rolling views from receivables, payables, bank data, and treasury instruments. Timing and amounts can be adjusted without changing source data. AI reference forecasts look for recurring patterns in historical bank transactions, ERP actuals, and past forecasts; Nomentia recommends three years of consistent history for the most accurate results. Subsidiaries can enter or upload figures through controlled templates with validation and deadlines. Teams can compare AI reference forecasts with manual forecasts, freeze versions for plan-to-plan and plan-to-actual tracking, and create scenarios that adjust amounts or timing. Forecasts support transaction, entity, and group currencies, with aggregation across organizational levels. ERP integrations include SAP, Oracle NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics 365, Oracle Fusion, Sage, and regional systems. Nomentia Connect imports data from banks, ERPs, PSPs, and trading platforms, with bank connectivity through several channels. Nomentia lists security certifications and registrations including ISO/IEC 27001:2022 and ISAE 3402 II. The service is accessed through a browser; pricing is available through a sales conversation.
