The most valuable features are mainly the reporting side of things and the dashboard. We mostly use those features. We normally collect the data and import it via spreadsheets. Then the data is manipulated and utilized, but it benefits through the BI interface. SharePoint integration makes it easier for our administrators to upload information into the system for the business intelligence side of things.

This solution is valuable for me in the sense that I can get at the behavior of the application, modify it, and get it to do what I need it to do, and get clients to understand the challenges and opportunities. Most other solutions require a lot of programming but I use Microsoft Visual Basic, so it simplifies things further. 

There were lots of different requirements, and collaboration and review is one of the biggest things. There is also Office 360 integration, and there's flexibility to use it as a database as well.
