The solution is not very stable. Sometimes we work on Board and automatically get logged off for all the clients and developers working on it. One type of error titled service unavailable consistently appears in the red error box. The error box appears frequently, but we don't know why it is happening. Sometimes in our data flow, many cubes vanish, and after some time, it shows an error that our database is corrupted. After some time, if we open the exact procedure, those cubes are there. Sometimes the client is running a procedure, but that process doesn't run, but when we check as developers, that time it is running.

Board is quite a good solution. All the reports are prepared automatically. The data is uploaded from Business Central automatically. Sales analysis is a valuable feature. We can do a detailed analysis of the crops and their varieties. We can also do a sales forecast. The solution also has budget-related features. We can analyze the actual expenditure versus our budget. The financial statements have had the most significant impact on our decision-making process. We can analyze it and write comments. It's good that Board has the functions that enable us to drill down. If we have a total amount, we can drill down to the transactions and how they influenced our results.
