Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Primary valuable features are its flexibility and versatility and, obviously, functionality goes along with that. Plus, it does that at a small footprint in the file servers, and does it very efficiently.""The flexibility and the user-experience are the most valuable features of the solution.""It allows people to quickly create dashboards with reports.""I liked the way that I felt as a user and administrator of it. There were a lot of clicks, drops, drags, etc. versus writing code.""Now, we have only one version of the truth.""​Our data is now more structured. Between our data warehouse and BOARD, which are both brand new, we now have a more structured data view with more accurate, timely data.""We have better reporting and have been able to better track performance.""By using Board we can do a lot of free analysis. We can change the layout of a table and even the end-user can change the layout of a table. And in Board 11.2 you can save the layout. That's very useful for the customer, it's a very good function."

Cons
"I would like to see better relationships with the partners.""What could be better is the manual... nowadays, most people use a web client, but on the Board manual website, a lot of the information is only about the Windows client. If they could update that, it would be helpful.""We are looking at ways to improve how we deal with security in BOARD and other similar things. ​""​One of the things that I would like to see is the ability to have a rule directly referenced on the cubes.​""Building similar models entirely from scratch could be made quicker with transfer abilities between databases and capsules.""I would like an eLearning platform for BOARD.""We have had some challenges with newer version of the rollout in terms of stability.""​My analysts have used the technical support. Sometimes they have felt like they did not receive the answer that they needed, or you have to go and upgrade in order to address a problem. ​"

More Board Cons →

"Mode Analytics needs to improve the overall user experience.""The solution could run faster.""The data visualization is cumbersome in Mode Analytics. I want the solution to add a map that has an easy interface. The UI is slow sometimes.""I think in terms of User Interface, I would say it can be better."
