Find out what your peers are saying about Anaplan, Oracle, Jedox and others in Business Performance Management."The support from the BOARD team and their consultants is great. Whenever I use technical support, they are good."
"What is very valuable is the ability to customize. We didn't see a solution out there that really matched exactly what our functional requirements would be. So we were able to work with New Brain, our integrator, and we were able to build from the ground up what we wanted, and I think that's pretty unique to BOARD."
"The ability to do write back and visualization, with minimal IT development orientation."
"All the reports are prepared automatically."
"The ability to create a data model and have it in testing within a week is fantastic."
"The most valuable features are the reporting and the charts. The reporting functionality is handy for aggregation, when it comes to planning. That ability is fascinating and our users are very happy with it. The charts and the reporting allow our users to see all the data and to see how things are going this year or in the COVID situation. They're seeing everything. Instead of having to check data line by line, they're seeing it in a graph and they're seeing it in charts."
"The drill down is good for people who have that high level view, because they can do some analysis based on it."
"It is easy to make quick updates. As the business changes, we can maintain the tool without programming help from IT."
"Its workflow is straightforward and simple to understand."
"We have had some challenges with newer version of the rollout in terms of stability."
"If we could upload other data, e.g., pivot tables which can be done in BOARD already, that we have pre-existing and have that data distribute to more complex spreadsheets, I would like that going forward."
"Building similar models entirely from scratch could be made quicker with transfer abilities between databases and capsules."
"One of the things that I would like to see is the ability to have a rule directly referenced on the cubes."
"It's very powerful, but there is also a big learning curve. It should be a little more intuitive."
"The product can be improved by making it possible to know where cubes are used."
"Sometimes, the data disappears from the product."
"I would like to see a better Web client, where the controls work the same way as in the Windows client. I do think that the focus is now on the Web, so it should be improved upon."
"There is a little bit of reliance upon understanding the syntax of the actions that you want to take. Some of the other competitors have moved forward with that in terms of being able to make it more drag and drop and more logical, but there is still some way to go for UNIT4 in doing that, but they're getting there. With all these things, automation helps. The more they can do to simplify some of the complexities from the financial reporting, evaluation, and analysis sides, the better it would be. I'd like to see more automation and more simplicity from an end-user point of view."
