Excel is the right tool — until roughly fund number 10. Then every question costs you days.
The switch: Nagare replaces the model, not the judgment. Your history imports once, the agent keeps it current from GP documents, and scenarios run in seconds instead of weekends.
Addepar is a reporting platform: excellent at aggregating what happened. Nagare is built for what happens next.
Different jobs. If you run an advisory business that ships client reports, Addepar fits. If you are the investor and need to decide — commit, hold cash, draw the facility — you need projections, and that's Nagare.
eFront is enterprise LP infrastructure — built for institutions with implementation teams. Nagare is built for the investor.
