The Briefing Book feature enables measures to be filtered and viewed based on different criteria by end users.
This software is targeted at executive users, not the data analysts who want to slice and dice. The software will not replace your BI tools, but it will sit nicely on top of a BI tool if you want management to have quick and easy access to performance data.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a comprehensive solution for performance management, and yet it is easy to setup and easy to use, especially in comparison with Oracle, SAS, Hyperion and SAP."
"I would definitely recommend this product to others as it provided ease of use and good reports."
"While working on Business Intelligence and searching for newly available tool, I came across Panorama Necto, the first business tool I have seen with a scope for personalization while providing a great visual infographic experience and which is user friendly."
"I was thrilled with the capabilities of astonishingly ready to build and simplified, modern and in-cell infographics that can be used by just right clicking on the attributes."
"Some of the features it provides are highly useful for the kind of requirements we have, with highly interactive and eye catchy infographics, powerful exception handling capabilities, excellent collaboration capabilities, and the ability to work with multiple data systems."
"This tool exceeded my expectations!"
"Eye catching infographics and very good collaborative capabilities providing context based discussion has really impressed our users within the organization."
"Necto has multiple features similar to other BI tools but parameters keeping it as emerging leader are: 1.) Collaborative Analysis: groups of people can decide things on the go, it's awesome. 2.) Vibrant Infographics: even single cell attributes can be set for infographics, providing more flexibility to design workboards."
"It has nice social features which can give context based discussions, search for users and relevant content within the system."
 

Cons

"It needs to have better quality built in reports."
"It becomes a big deal if the data to be handled is very large."
"The performance with large data volumes needs to be improved."
"Sometimes cloud version hangs, but this could be due to issues in network firewall, so not sure."
"Support for bi directional language is not powerful. (Arabic, Hebrew) BIGDATA is questionable"
"Support and functionality for Mac OS X."
"Necto should allow support of multiple languages as this has been the major issue we have came across as we have offices in various South American countries."
"Online tutorials on this are not available. This should be done or documentation can be improved."
"The user console is bit complicated when beginning to work with it."
