"The product's most valuable features are its day-to-day operations, Power BI-driven workspaces, and homepage."
"It is flexible and cost-effective."
"It is easy to use, and it has a great UI. It has very well-structured modules. In terms of setup and configuration, they're logically placed, which makes it easy for any user to pick up information and learn more about the system, rather than just be plain key users of that business operating system."
