Centralizes our data, gives us version control and the ability to report dynamically
Our primary use case is for forecasting and budgeting. We budget capital expenditures, the full P&L financial statement. We have our top-level VPs enter their driver rules and then Finance goes on the back-end and calculates the gross margin impact of that. We capture operational expenses down to…

User-friendly performance management with intuitive approach
I appreciate its user-friendliness, especially for business users who may not be very tech-savvy. In many organizations, there's a mix of IT professionals and business users with varying levels of technical expertise. One of the strengths of the solution includes a feature similar to SmartView, is that it allows users to work with Excel. Since Excel is a widely familiar tool, it reduces the learning curve and makes it more accessible to a broader audience within the organization. The workflow feature within the solution is particularly valuable. It simplifies complex processes into a step-by-step sequence, making it easy for users to follow along.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"All staff can now see their relevant scorecards online."
"A lot of flexibility from the data modeling standpoint. It can add specific line items into our budget, for example, or if we want to make changes to the data model itself, we have that flexibility."
"It is useful for self-analysis regarding company data and helps to find areas where we can improve."
"The support from the BOARD team and their consultants is great. Whenever I use technical support, they are good."
"It is very easy to use. It has got what they call a toolkit, which is a no-code development environment. You can develop a whole solution with it because it is a complete platform. There is a lot of online material that can be used as a reference. You can help yourself while developing a solution. There are some prebuilt applications in the platform environment. You can very easily customize and integrate these applications. It also has flexible scaling of machine resources, which is really great."
"It has definitely saved us time, especially in our budget and planning processes."
"It is easy to make quick updates. As the business changes, we can maintain the tool without programming help from IT."
"BOARD technical support is knowledgeable and helpful."
"I've primarily worked with CCH Tagetik as a consultant, handling implementations and not providing day-to-day user support. I initially appreciated the unified platform, the Ownership Structure Register, which benefits certain entities. The workflow feature is great, but it can become overly detailed and lacks clear guidance on design. The solution is good in terms of storage."
"The most valuable feature of CCH Tagetik is form creation."
"I appreciate its user-friendliness, especially for business users who may not be very tech-savvy."
"Has an APM, which deals with the details of data and has calculation functions included."
 

Cons

"We have had some challenges with newer version of the rollout in terms of stability."
"One thing that I personally would like to see is additional visualization tools for visuals."
"The product can be improved by making it possible to know where cubes are used."
"It's very powerful, but there is also a big learning curve. ​It should be a little more intuitive."
"The setup was a bit complex."
"​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. ​"
"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."
"We can't delete entities and cubes in Boards because it interrupts our whole data model."
"Analytics function is weak. Other products have sum(irate) function and forecasting help function, but Tagetik does not have this clarity."
"The tool's major drawback is the ETL process, which is not up to par with other solutions."
"We faced difficulties while uploading data."
"There is room for improvement, especially on the settings side of the solution."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is quite expensive, if it is made cheaper then we can have more clients. I rate it four out of ten."
"​In terms of the pricing, it was reasonable. BOARD is not the lowest in the market, but it was reasonable for us."
"It is not the cheapest product on earth, but you get so much. It provides good value for money."
"Find a partner who will take responsibility for the implementation, and be available for support."
"The solution is quite expensive."
"The solution's pricing is affordable."
