Best Forecasting and Analytics Tool

Rating: 5 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We used Board as a way to integrate big data sources (coming from CSV files) in a single place in order to collect better analytics and forecasting that could drive our business decisions.

Pros

  • Visualise large amount of data
  • Automations
  • UI

Cons

  • Dashboard not always intuitive
  • Hard to integrate
  • Pricing

Likelihood to Recommend

Board is really suited for companies that includes a data-science team with a large amount of data they can work with. In this case Board can really help maintaining, visualising and use large datasets. In the contrary if the team is small and the knowledge of data-science and big-data is limited than Board might be a little bit to overwhelming and pricy

Great Financial Planning Tool

Rating: 10 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have mainly used the Board application to get insight and perform some financial planning in my institution. I find it to be very helpful when generating reports, which always come in great detail and high quality. My supervisors are always content with such reports.

Pros

  • High Quality Reports
  • Financial Planning
  • Product Support
  • User-Interface

Cons

  • Ease of use
  • Update procedures
  • Error description

Likelihood to Recommend

I would definitely recommend Board in most financial planning applications as it offers the best features out there compared to other products. Despite having a nice UI, Board is not that easy to use, especially for new users. This being said, it would be better to start with a simpler solution, then switch to Board when possible.
