"It has definitely saved us time, especially in our budget and planning processes."
"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."
"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 aesthetics of it are really nice. That is what attracted us to BOARD: the ease and functionality of it."
"we are able to easily export data. When directors need financial information, we can go in the system and export the data, then send it out so they have it ready and available. If they are not in the office, we can email it to them. In addition, all the managers are now more on top of their expenses and their budget."
"It allows people to quickly create dashboards with reports."
"The reporting part has been very valuable as the capabilities of the tool do not have to change graphs, change how grids are displayed, and can create reports on the fly."
"The feature that I like most is the drag and drop capability."
"We can set any property dynamically."
"You can do quite a lot with it in terms of automated reports and dashboards."
"With the online view, it's easier to create Ad Hoc reports. It has inbuilt reports so we can easily get data from the system and customize the fields."
"It's easy to use and maintain."
"The solution is standalone with the flexibility to use visualize.js to embed within the application."
"We find the access restrictions on different user groups valuable."
"The growth time is the most valuable feature of TIBCO Jaspersoft."
"It would be nice to be able to host your site and actually have BOARD be the driver of your site. So you could have anybody in your organization go to www.myorg.com, for example, and then go through what you allow them to go through. So rather than having to go through the application, to be able to go to actually host it to a website."
"It would be nice to see truly transferable processes from model to model, as well as a method of building repetitive processes."
"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."
"Sometimes, the data disappears from the product."
"It would be huge in the future if BOARD offered a lot more graphs and presentations, and it was a lot easier to use."
"It can have more functionality for narrative reporting. They should also improve their training courses, which are currently very lightweight. When you get into more complex things, it is quite difficult to figure out what you're supposed to do, and you have to look at a lot of videos before you actually understand, which is a bit frustrating. Their training can be more comprehensive."
"One of the things that I would like to see is the ability to have a rule directly referenced on the cubes."
"There might be some compatibility issues with the dashboard if we're using the latest version and some clients are using the older version. Some features might not be supported."
"A better focus should be put on self-service reporting."
"I would like to see some analysis done prior to data extraction. The data extraction itself could also be improved."
"Customization is an area with certain shortcomings in the solution that needs improvement."
"The Ad Hoc Report Writer does not include as many features as Tableau and needs to be improved to meet expectations."
"I would like to see better support for big data."
