The only two metrics that really matter are: 1) Cash on Hand 2) Monthly Burn.

Until a business is cash flow positive, the above two metrics are the most important things that need to be managed.

PS For an awesome startup budget / dashboard tool - check out 60mo.com It's simple, beautiful and the UI focuses on cash remaining

Interesting recommendation. I had trouble telling (from index.html page) whether this was alt to QuickBooks, but since the features page includes "Integrate QuickBooks to eliminate data entry"... apparently it sits atop QB and bases it analysis on what you've entered. Bookmarked. Thanks for the lead.
