Why the cash flow matters
A loan or transfer between your own companies isn't cash coming into or leaving the group. If the consolidated cash flow statement still shows it, the investing and financing lines are wrong even when the closing cash is right. SigmaClose builds the group's cash flow from the balance sheets after eliminations, so intercompany movements drop out, and checks the closing cash against the bank. The consolidated cash flow guide walks through an example.
When Reach is the better fit
If you want dashboards, white-labeled reports for clients, or have companies on Xero or QuickBooks Desktop, Reach covers more. SigmaClose has no dashboards or custom layouts.
Questions
Is SigmaClose a Reach Reporting alternative?
For consolidating QuickBooks Online companies in US dollars, yes. SigmaClose gives you one profit and loss, balance sheet and cash flow by month, with paired intercompany eliminations, exports and a branded report pack. Reach also does dashboards, white-label reports and more accounting systems.
What does Reach Reporting cost?
On Reach's pricing page in November 2026, plans are by number of connected companies: $149 a month for one, $290 for up to 10 and $550 for up to 25, with unlimited users. SigmaClose is $20 a month or $200 a year per group for any number of companies and people, with the first 30 days free.
How do eliminations differ?
Reach's help article says you choose intercompany accounts to eliminate and each is removed in full; it can't eliminate part of an account, and eliminated accounts still show on the cash flow statement. SigmaClose pairs one account in each company, removes both sides, carries the eliminations through the cash flow statement, and posts any difference between the sides to a balancing account in Equity.
Does SigmaClose change anything in QuickBooks?
No. SigmaClose only reads.
