IdeaBuddy

Very useful for start-ups and new projects in existing companies. Very friendly as well for SMB consultants. I'd just recommend multilingual UI for the platform.

Inconvénients

Not multilingual. Spanish is critical for our customers.

Pourquoi passer à IdeaBuddy

Avantages

You guys are really awesome. Everything I found on the platform was great and unique. The reports, the plans, the control panel, everything was amazing.

Inconvénients

Support the Arabic language. I think that if you can do that, I will be the first to contribute to spreading and marketing the platform in my region.

Pourquoi passer à IdeaBuddy

Avantages

The best feature is the pre-set sequence of how it is put together and at the end it give you feedback of how viable your idea is

Inconvénients

One improvement might be to be able to ask a question when the AI answer is not exactly what you had in mind. I feed I waist my AI generated answers and I can not ask a more specific question to the answer it gave me. Also the button that you have to click to say you are complete with a section unless you put the button at the top for a reason it might be a good idea to move it to below the notes box.

Avantages

Help me organize my thoughts in an organized way.

Inconvénients

I wanted to download all my data but I couldn't

Avantages

Really easy to use, no training necessary, and the step is very well done

Inconvénients

Free test option does not allow you to see the result of a business plan, it should be a good idea to convert customers, hard to commit without a full test

Avantages

IdeaBuddy asks all the right question which helped me clarify/define my project to the greatest detail.

Inconvénients

I have not found anything I didn't like.

Pourquoi passer à IdeaBuddy

Avantages

How easy it was to use. Finance section and also the ai gen

Inconvénients

How it cost money to use business plan however I do understand why.

Avantages

It is very easy to use. It really helps an aspiring entrepreneur to actually take actionable steps to make their dream one step closer to being a reality.

Inconvénients

Nothing really. It was great. I've actually convinced my friends to use it.

Avantages

It is easy to use, the AI function is very helpful.

Inconvénients

Expense categories are a bit confusing and sometimes you have to work to find a different category to get the expense to show up correctly.

Avantages

It’s amazing! The whole process, it is easy to use!

Inconvénients

IdeaBuddy is perfect in every way, i helped me a lot!

Avantages

I absolutely love IdeaBuddy because it's like having a one-stop-shop for all my business planning needs. The thing that stands out the most is how it simplifies everything, from strategic analysis to financial modeling. With its user-friendly interface, I can easily create budgets, forecast future earnings, and even customize reports to fit exactly what I need. It's like having a personal business advisor right at my fingertips, helping me make informed decisions and stay on track for success.

Inconvénients

While IdeaBuddy is undoubtedly a powerful tool, there are a few areas where it could improve. One aspect is its market research capabilities. While it provides valuable insights into financial planning and business strategy, it could benefit from more robust features for gathering competitor details and market trends. Additionally, enhancing its integration with external data sources could further enrich its analysis capabilities and provide a more comprehensive picture for decision-making.

Avantages

La funzionalità, la semplicità, l'approccio intuitivo e guidato accessibile anche a chi non è propriamente avvezzo alla tematica.

Inconvénients

Non tutte le versioni corrispondono, per cui io ad esempio non vedo dal mio profilo l'app da scaricare, cosa che invece ha trovato un mio collaboratore anche se poi si è trovato in difficoltà perché i dati non sono stati sincronizzati con il web e sono andati persi.

Avantages

I loved that he didn't bother me with unnecessary details. I'm working on my budget plan and I have a lot to think about. In IdeaBuddy I only enter the necessary data and save time. Working with percentage in budget planning+++

Inconvénients

There are too many blocked sections while in the trial version. I cannot act as freely as I would like regarding the date when entering expenses in the budget section. I didn't understand what the restriction was based on.

Avantages

I love the way it structures together all the needed pieces for a non-professional to produce a respectable business plan.

Inconvénients

So far, have nothing negative to say about IdeaBuddy

Avantages

I liked that he helped me figure out how much money I could potentially make.

Inconvénients

.That the free trial only came witha couple things unlocked I did everything and got to the last step and couldn’t see the actual projections just a few things.

Avantages

Ease of use
Nice design
Well thought out sections, which covers all aspects of creating a business plan

Inconvénients

The exported Business Plan could look a little bit better, but this is only nitpicking

Avantages

Comprehensive tool that is great for fleshing out new business ideas and for writing detailed businesses plans.

Inconvénients

Slight learning curve mostly regarding functionality of each section of the system.

Avantages

I was able to writ my business plan easily with the help of AI.

Inconvénients

So far I like everything, it takes time to fill up everything but it is worth it.

Avantages

Easy to set up, really understand plan. I like that you can copy plans, share plans. So many great intuitive features including syncing with business model canvas.

Inconvénients

Non functioning formulas on excel export. This is not investor facing.

Avantages

I have a rough business plan but the process of building has been tedious. I tend to let it sit for a long time (which I know I shouldn't do) because I feel unmotivated to tackle the areas I struggle with aka SWOT. (I like that it helps me organize my objectives and key milestones into a digestable map I feel confident with. It also inspires more structured thinking around my vision and mission.

Inconvénients

I can't say it's been super intuitive to use. When I started I was a bit unclear how it was using the information to support my need for a business plan. It felt like it was just asking me to write down my ideas, mission, etc and then not produce anything with it beyond that. For me, I already know the frame of my company; I'm looking for platform to help me refine areas that need more attention. I didn't get that.

Avantages

me gusta tener la opción de usar la IA cuando te sientes estancado

Inconvénients

creo que esta un poco caro si costara un poco menos la suscripción sería genial

Avantages

As co-director of a small business, most of our time is spent bringing in the business and doing the doing. With the best intentions in the world, planning rapidly and regularly moves down the priority list. However, whilst we're still not perfect, IdeaBuddy has made the whole process incredibly simple and easy for us.

Inconvénients

What's not to like? If I could change one thing, it would be to include collaborators in the free version.

Avantages

It helps to summarise the idea of a person without experience. It's easier to fill out the forms and to think about the idea.

Inconvénients

Trial is quite short. It would be great to be able to share the idea with friends.

Avantages

La interfaz de la plataforma es muy amigable.

Inconvénients

Todo bien, hasta ahora no he tenido un problema.

Avantages

There are many tools to use, so very convinient to use.

Inconvénients

The times of free trial is quite short, so i haven't tried all properties of IdeaBuddy.
