Easy to use and requires less time to learn or understand its features
I think the product is good in terms of ease of use. The interface looks really nice and very easy to use. Every command appears in the icon. It looks like you don't have to understand everything about the command. You do not necessarily have to know more, or I would say that there is less time for our study about the products. Functionality-wise, it is quite easy to use and requires less time to understand or learn about the product. I am a software vendor, so I do not use the tool myself. I use it for my clients. My clients mostly use it for budgeting and timing purposes. I would say that's really less maintenance at all because they can do everything by themselves. It is good in terms of ease of use.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"What is very valuable is the ability to customize. We didn't see a solution out there that really matched exactly what our functional requirements would be. So we were able to work with New Brain, our integrator, and we were able to build from the ground up what we wanted, and I think that's pretty unique to BOARD."
"The ease of being able to get the data into BOARD is what makes it nice for people with a semi-IT background."
"We can build reports super fast.​"
"I think the product is good in terms of ease of use."
"All staff can now see their relevant scorecards online."
"Instead of taking two people a week each month to perform our internal KPI reporting, the same two people can have it done in a day."
"All the reports are prepared automatically."
"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 most valuable features of Kyvos are reconciliation and its ability to query big data."
 

Cons

"The product can be improved by making it possible to know where cubes are used."
"We are looking at ways to improve how we deal with security in BOARD and other similar things. ​"
"It would be huge in the future if BOARD offered a lot more graphs and presentations, and it was a lot easier to use."
"Board's integration could be a bit more robust, but what we have works. If the design isn't right, the flexibility of Board can negatively impact performance."
"I would like an eLearning platform for BOARD."
"In terms of scalability, I would say that there are some limitations in the solution. It cannot handle data that is too big."
"One thing that I personally would like to see is additional visualization tools for visuals."
"If we could upload other data, e.g., pivot tables which can be done in BOARD already, that we have pre-existing and have that data distribute to more complex spreadsheets​, I would like that going forward."
"Since I couldn't find any tutorials or a handbook, I had some initial difficulty understanding the UI and the whole interface of Kyvos."
 

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."
"Find a partner who will take responsibility for the implementation, and be available for support."
"It is not the cheapest product on earth, but you get so much. It provides good value for money."
"The tool's price is a bit high compared to other solutions."
