# Syft Standard vs Syft Plus: what each includes

## The differences between Syft Standard and Syft Plus - explained

Syft Standard is included with our Accounting Standard plan, whilst Syft Plus is included with our Accounting Scale plan. The two tiers differ in the depth of reporting and features available.

### Syft Standard (included in Accounting Standard)

Syft's standard reporting features sit on top of your Xero data to give you clearer, more visual financial reporting. This includes:

- Automated financial reports, including profit and loss, balance sheet, and cash flow
- Visual, interactive dashboards of your key numbers
- Period-on-period comparisons and KPI tracking
- The ability to share reports as PDFs or secure links

### Syft Plus (included in Accounting Scale)

Syft's more advanced reporting tier, building on the standard features with deeper analysis and group reporting. As well as everything in the standard tier, this includes:

- Consolidated reporting across multiple entities, useful if you run more than one company
- Multi-currency reporting
- Custom report building and reusable report packs
- Budgeting and forecasting, including comparison of actuals against budget and forecast
- More advanced dashboards and deeper KPI tracking

Speak to us if you would like help setting these up. Some features, such as multi-entity consolidation, work best with a short setup and walkthrough. We are happy to provide this as additional support for a fee agreed in advance, once we understand your requirements.

💡 **Good to know:** Syft's feature set evolves regularly. For the current full feature comparison, visit syftanalytics.com. Contact us if you have a question about whether a specific Syft feature is included in your tier.
