"Users continue to become more advanced and are looking for more advanced solutions."

"We tried Discovery and OfficeConnect at one point and found them too cumbersome, at the time."
"The part that we liked about Excel is that it had a better interface in terms of just graphical illustration of our results. So, if we wanted to look at our financial trends and put it into some type of graphical interface for people to look at, we still have to leverage Excel for that. The dashboards aren't as usable as maybe some of the other solutions, such as Tableau or other BI tools."
