Automatic data integration and validation streamline financial reporting

I am an external consultant for an insurance company where CCH Tagetik was implemented instead of Oracle HFM about two years ago. I support preparing data for CCH Tagetik by preparing files, loading data via IPL, and supporting integration from Oracle or any other general ledger that entities use…

It has helped us speed up the turnaround time on our consolidation, and we haven't had anything come up that the program has not been able to solve

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. The application that we use today for our BI tools is Tableau. That's how people absorb information. We don't really use the functionality or dashboards within Planful because of the robustness of Tableau. That's our single source of data. If Planful was better or more comparable in terms of features and functionality, we could probably leverage that in Planful.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."

"It's user friendly, and it doesn't require code programming, with only the parameters needing to be entered."

"I appreciate its user-friendliness, especially for business users who may not be very tech-savvy."

"The most valuable feature of CCH Tagetik is form creation."

"The ability for integration and automatic loading from the Oracle system into CCH Tagetik is very valuable."

"Has an APM, which deals with the details of data and has calculation functions included."

"APM, which deals with the details of data and has calculation functions included, is very powerful, and accounting and financial departments members like it."

"It has helped us speed up the turnaround time on our consolidation. We don't have to do reporting in Excel anymore, which has cut down on the errors and the efficiency of our close time."

"Planful has probably cut our time in half, given that we can now leverage the cloud-based services to interact with our subs for getting their forecast inputs."

"I believe the ROI is very high."

Cons

"Because of the on-the-fly functionalities, we do see that especially with larger databases, the response times of the reports are under pressure."

"Stability issues: Yes there are."

"There is a need for improvement in the ability to generate all reports from one click, like both P&L and balance sheets, to be available together in Excel."

"We faced difficulties while uploading data."

"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."

"Analytics function is weak. Other products have sum(irate) function and forecasting help function, but Tagetik does not have this clarity."

"There is room for improvement, especially on the settings side of the solution."

"Some of the behind the scenes processing for the simulation engines has a learning curve to use in that there are certain changes that need to happen for the reporting to be "Live"."

"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.
