FloQast owns a lot of the mind share in month-end close software, which is exactly why teams that hit its price wall start looking for a way around it. It quotes every deal by sales call, third-party estimates put the entry point near $12,000 a year, and there is no free trial to test the fit before signing. Look past the sales pitch to the three tools in CurateSuite's catalog built for the same job, running reconciliations and a controlled close for a formal month-end process, and only one of them actually gives you a number before that call. Numeric publishes a per-user price. Trintech and Netgain are just as quote-only as FloQast itself for the modules that compete with it directly. That single fact decides more of this shortlist than a feature comparison ever will.
This guide sorts the field by what actually separates the three from FloQast and from each other: pricing transparency, ledger reach, and the size of team each one assumes. For the wider set of reconciliation-focused tools, including ones built for solo bookkeepers rather than a mid-market close, see the bank reconciliation software guide, the broader comparison this article sits under.
The short answer
- Want a published starting price instead of a sales call: Numeric lists $30 per user per month for its Essentials tier; auto-reconciliation and flux analysis sit on the custom-quoted Growth tier above it.
- Need reconciliation and close controls on SAP, Oracle, or Microsoft Dynamics: Trintech's Adra suite reaches all three, which neither Numeric nor Netgain's NetClose module does.
- Already run NetSuite and the close problem is really leases or fixed assets: Netgain runs natively inside NetSuite and offers a genuine free tier on its standalone lease and asset modules, unlike the other two.
- Team is smaller than FloQast assumes: Numeric's firm-size fit reaches down to small teams, not just mid-market and up, which is where FloQast and Trintech both sit.
- Client base is solo bookkeepers or small firms on QuickBooks and Xero, not a formal in-house close: none of the four tools here are priced or built for that size. The bank reconciliation software guide covers lighter tools built for that job instead.
Why firms look past FloQast
Three specific frictions send teams looking, more often than any complaint about what FloQast's reconciliation engine actually does.
No published price. FloQast is quoted entirely by sales, based on company size and the modules picked. Third-party sources put the entry point around $12,000 a year, rising fast for a mid-market deployment, but that number never comes from FloQast's own site. A finance team trying to budget before committing time to a sales process has nothing to work from.
No free trial. There is no way to run a real close inside FloQast before signing a contract. The evaluation happens through a sales demo, not hands-on use of your own data.
Built for mid-market and up. FloQast's own fit guidance says as much: solo practitioners and small firms are not the target, and a business without a formal close process is not either. A team that has not yet built a real month-end checklist gains nothing from a platform designed to tighten one that already exists.
None of the three alternatives here solve all three frictions at once. Matching your specific complaint to the section below beats picking a name because it sounds like a reasonable swap.
Trintech sells two products for two audiences: Adra for lean mid-market finance teams and Cadency for large, complex, or public enterprises. Both automate transaction matching, balance-sheet reconciliation, close task management, and intercompany work, aimed at teams that have outgrown spreadsheet-driven reconciliation entirely.
Where Trintech separates itself from FloQast is ledger reach. It connects to NetSuite, SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, and Workday, a wider ERP list than FloQast's NetSuite, Sage Intacct, SAP, Xero, and Microsoft Dynamics coverage once you get past NetSuite and SAP specifically. A team running Oracle or Workday has a real reason to look at Trintech that FloQast does not answer.
What Trintech does not fix is the pricing question. It is custom subscription, quoted by size, users, and modules, with no published rate and no free trial, so a firm moving from FloQast to Trintech to escape the sales-call problem will find the same sales call waiting on the other side. The switch only makes sense if the actual complaint is ERP reach or reconciliation volume, not price transparency. See Trintech on the vendor site.
Numeric vs FloQast: the one alternative with a published price
Numeric runs the close in one workspace with a preparer-then-reviewer flow, auto-reconciliation against the ledger, AI-parsed bank statements, and flux analysis, the same core job FloQast does. The difference that matters most is pricing: Numeric's Essentials tier is $30 per user per month, listed on its own site, and covers close task management, review roles, and an AI assistant that drafts technical accounting answers. Auto-reconciliation, AI statement parsing, and flux analysis move up to the Growth tier, which is custom-quoted, same as FloQast's whole product. So the honest comparison is that Numeric gives you a real entry price and a way to start small, even though the automation depth that actually competes with FloQast still sits behind a sales call.
Firm size is the other real gap. FloQast's own fit guidance points at mid-market teams specifically; Numeric's reaches down to small teams as well as mid-market ones, and it runs a partner program aimed at firms that close books on behalf of several clients, a use case FloQast does not address. A five-person finance team that FloQast would consider too small is exactly who Numeric's Essentials tier is built for.
Ledger reach narrows the swap, though. Numeric connects to NetSuite, QuickBooks Online, Xero, and Sage Intacct. It does not reach SAP or Microsoft Dynamics, both of which FloQast supports. A company on SAP evaluating FloQast because of its ERP reach will not find Numeric a like-for-like replacement, whatever the price difference.
Netgain: the NetSuite-native specialist
Netgain is not a general close platform the way FloQast, Trintech, and Numeric are. It was built by former auditors to solve one specific set of technical-accounting problems well: lease accounting under ASC 842 and IFRS 16, fixed-asset lifecycle management, and, through its NetClose module, reconciliations and flux analysis. The full suite, including NetClose, runs natively inside NetSuite. NetLease and NetAsset, the lease and fixed-asset modules, are also sold standalone for any other ERP, but the reconciliation and close piece is NetSuite-only.
That makes Netgain a genuine FloQast alternative for exactly one situation: a NetSuite shop whose real bottleneck is lease schedules and fixed-asset registers sitting alongside the close, not the close checklist itself. Pricing is custom, scaled by lease count, asset count, or transaction volume rather than seats, which keeps it as opaque as FloQast on the core suite. The one place Netgain breaks from FloQast, Trintech, and Numeric's Growth tier is that its standalone lease and asset products, on small portfolios, have been offered free to non-NetSuite users, with interactive demos to try first. A team can evaluate the lease and asset side without a sales call even though the close side still requires one.
FloQast alternatives compared
| Tool | Pricing model | Published starting price | Free trial | ERP and ledger reach | Best fit |
|---|
| FloQast | Custom quote | No | No | NetSuite, Sage Intacct, SAP, Xero, Microsoft Dynamics | Mid-market teams wanting a controlled, auditable close |
| Trintech | Custom subscription | No | No | NetSuite, SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics, Workday | Teams on Oracle or Workday needing volume reconciliation |
| Numeric | Per user (entry); custom above | Yes, $30/user/month | No | NetSuite, QuickBooks Online, Xero, Sage Intacct | Small to mid teams that want a real starting price |
| Netgain | Custom, by volume | No (close module); free tier on standalone lease/asset modules | Yes, standalone modules only | NetSuite (native close); any ERP for standalone lease/asset | NetSuite teams whose close problem is leases and assets |
Figures reflect what each vendor publishes as of this writing. Confirm the current number on the vendor's own pricing page before committing a client or your own finance team to a contract, since three of the four quote custom.
Choosing without trading one friction for another
Start with the ledger. If the team runs SAP, Oracle, or Microsoft Dynamics, Numeric is off the list regardless of its price, since it does not reach any of the three. If the ledger is NetSuite, QuickBooks Online, Xero, or Sage Intacct, all three real alternatives stay on the table and the decision moves to the next question.
Then ask what the actual complaint against FloQast is. If it is the missing price tag, only Numeric answers that, and only at the entry tier; its Growth tier, the one with auto-reconciliation and flux analysis, is quoted the same way FloQast is. If it is FloQast being sized for a bigger team than yours, Numeric's small-team fit is the real answer, not Trintech, which sits at the same mid-market-and-up level as FloQast. If the complaint is reconciliation volume that has genuinely outgrown FloQast, Trintech's Adra and Cadency products are built to scale further, at the cost of the same custom-quote process.
Netgain only belongs on this list for one specific reason: a NetSuite team whose close pain includes lease schedules or a fixed-asset register that a general close tool does not handle well. Bringing it in to replace FloQast's checklist and reconciliation work alone would mean buying a specialist tool for a generalist job.
For finance teams whose real gap is planning and budgeting with close bolted on rather than a dedicated close platform, Best Financial Close Software in 2026 covers that FP&A-first group separately. For a smaller client roster where the bottleneck is the whole close cycle, AP through reporting, rather than an enterprise controls process, Best AI Tools for Month-End Close Automation covers the lighter stack built for that size. And if the actual gap is basic bookkeeping automation rather than a dedicated close platform at all, the core ledger and bookkeeping category is the better starting point.
Common questions
What is the biggest difference between FloQast and Numeric?
Price transparency and team size. Numeric publishes a $30-per-user-per-month entry tier and its fit guidance reaches down to small finance teams; FloQast quotes every deal by sales and targets mid-market teams and up. The gap narrows once you need Numeric's auto-reconciliation and flux analysis, which sit on its custom-quoted Growth tier, the same pricing model FloQast uses for everything.
Is there a free FloQast alternative?
Not for close management directly. None of FloQast, Trintech, or Numeric offer a free tier or a free trial. Netgain is the exception, but only for its standalone lease and asset modules on small portfolios, not for the NetClose reconciliation module that actually competes with FloQast.
Which FloQast alternative works with SAP or Oracle?
Trintech reaches both, along with NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics, and Workday. FloQast also reaches SAP but not Oracle or Workday. Numeric does not connect to SAP, Oracle, or Workday at all, and Netgain's close module is NetSuite-only.
Does Netgain replace FloQast?
Only for one specific case: a NetSuite team whose close work includes lease accounting under ASC 842 or IFRS 16, or a fixed-asset register, alongside standard reconciliations. For a team whose close needs are limited to task tracking, reconciliation, and variance analysis with no lease or asset complexity, Netgain is a narrower and less relevant tool than FloQast, Trintech, or Numeric.
Can a team run FloQast alongside one of these alternatives?
Netgain is the one built for that. A NetSuite team can run FloQast or Numeric for the general close checklist and reconciliations while running Netgain's NetLease and NetAsset modules for lease and fixed-asset compliance, since Netgain solves a problem the other two do not attempt. Running two full close platforms at once, FloQast alongside Trintech or Numeric, is unusual and rarely justified.
Working through ledger reach, pricing transparency, and team size against a specific client or finance team by hand is slower than it needs to be. The CurateSuite matchmaker takes a few questions about ledger, team size, and budget and returns the close and reconciliation tools that fit, results shown immediately with no email required.
