Board Scalability

Adnane BAAHMED - PeerSpot reviewer
Project Manager at FASTCUBE

The solution is not very scalable and needs improvement. We had some performance issues with the big organisation with a lot of data. So Board could not support and could not address the amount of data of the big organizations. The ETL platform needs improvement and transformation.

I rate the tool’s scalability a seven out of ten. The scalability is quite good. We can consolidate the data in the tool for a few legal entities. Three people are using the product in our organization. We use the tool once a week.

Its scalability is good. Because of the agreement that they've got with Microsoft Azure, they monitor the performance and scale automatically. If more processing power is required, they just add it. You don't have to worry about that, and you also don't have to pay extra. 

In terms of usage, we started with four or five people. We currently have about 30 users, and we will use it for more areas of the business.

I think it is very customizable. For us, it's not a financial and budgeting solution. It's really just based on some performance metrics. We don't have financial forecasting, but if we did we certainly know that we could build that. For us, I feel like that's pretty excellent with BOARD.

No issues. The tool seems to have a lot of ways to handle scaling.

It's certainly an enterprise product. It's got a lot of clustering capability and options, depending on the environment. It's a very scalable solution.

Like any solution, it needs to be monitored for sizing over the lifetime of the solution. You can imagine it will become used by more and more departments, by more and more users, for more and more purposes. So, managing it and being proactive to understand user growth, data growth, sizing of the environment, accordingly is an important task.

The scalability is great. Our customer is a global company, so in the near future we may need to expand the solution to the branches.

It's scalable because anything can be built with Board when you build it from scratch.

We have a very small team. We have around 15 licenses. Around five to six people are developing complete solutions for our customers. On the customer side, we have 150 licenses in the Board production environment.

We are still a small organization. From my organization, I am very excited about it. That is one of the reasons that I picked BOARD, it would scale.

It will scale to whatever you need. You just need to find somebody to build the SQL statement and you're all set.

I haven't reached my goal yet. I like to give the best. I'm sure there's more at the end. There is more to do always. Although I will say that right now the users are very happy with whatever they have, but I'm sure that technology definitely has more to offer them. I'm sure BOARD will keep on improving in functionality, which will help us also to provide a better experience to the users. So I wouldn't say I have reached any end point yet.

It has great potential. Right now, we started with just one or two departments, but as we are able to demonstrate the success of what we do, we will be able to get more buy-in from more people.

The more that we use it in our company, the more other departments are looking to use it. I think it has the ability to keep up with this growth.

I think there's a lot more that we could be doing. Right now it's just really budgets that we're using it for. I'm really interested in learning how we can use BEAM for our revenue forecasting, or revenue predictive analytics; how we use that in a government setting. The tools that we have now are really just Excel.

We have not tried to scale it much as we do not have that many users. At the moment, we have around 10 maximum. However, this could change.

Business Transformation Manager at a tech services company with 201-500 employees

I think it is scalable. We have small customers, we have large customers. And it seems to go with the growth of the process and the data. We haven't really tested it for large volumes of big data yet. That's what we're exploiting with the new version when it comes.

System Controller at a hospitality company with 10,001+ employees

Scalability is very good. We went away from our old system, partly because it had been life-cycled. But we always had issues with the size. We tend to budget at a detailed level, SKU-based, with all the customers. And we ran into limitations on what we could do. Where with BOARD, it seems, we have even expanded what we do, and we're not having any issues with response time and the like. It should be able to satisfy our needs for the coming years.

We have not had a chance to scale it up too much. We have had some test cases where we used some existing data to scale it up, but we really have not tested the limits of what it can do. I do not think there will be an issue in the years down the road with what they already have.

I think it's very scalable. Again, that's why we chose it, because I think there are endless possibilities to do more. Right now, we're just using it for FP&A-type functions. But the BI functionality, which is the core business, I think is tremendous.

There are no issues with the scalability. We're a medium sized company. I have worked for larger companies and smaller companies. I think it BOARD is pretty fast as far as data loading and processing. We haven't had any scalability issues.

I think it's very scalable. We hardly see the impact on the tool, the CPU, the memory, when the users are connecting through it, through the Web. The Windows client is a different story. It's not scalable at all, so we decided to go with the Web.
