“Changed our finance team's efficiency”
Pros
This platform has completely changed how our finance team operates. Its smooth connections with all our other systems make it the absolute reliable center for our planning and analysis. It lets our small team handle detailed what-if planning, create reports for leadership, compare actuals to plans in real time and conduct thorough business check-ups. The adaptable and advanced data structure allows us to examine the key parts of our business in fine detail and plan ahead.
Cons
There's a small learning period because the platform is so powerful and adaptable particularly when constructing intricate models. However their support and setup teams are very quick to reply and do a great job helping you get up to speed faster.

“Outstanding help desk”
Pros
The help desk and the program's dependability have been outstanding during our entire journey of automating our financial models.
Cons
My only current wish is for more development in the charting tools to fully match some reporting capabilities we already use in Excel or Google Sheets though I'm confident this is on the way.

“Major step forward for workflow!”
Pros
We began using the platform a year ago. The support team was very hands-on during the setup, helping us build all our models. They are consistently quick to reply and clarify any questions we have, both now and during the initial phase. Bringing this tool into our financial workflow has been a major step forward. In the past, our team wasted many hours on repetitive tasks and pulling data together. This integration has made a massive difference in our daily work, freeing us up to focus on bigger-picture choices.
Cons
So far we haven't run into anything that doesn't meet what we were hoping for.
