255 Board Testimonials

"BOARD allows us to consolidate in a split second! Yes, consolidation can happen with a single button! Yes, consolidation can happen for 48 manufacturing plants and for 85 warehouses! At the beginning I was very skeptical, but I can guarantee you that it works.”

"The BOARD toolkit puts the solution in the end-users hands, taking the pressure away from other departments. The more I discover about the toolkit the more I realize I am on a learning curve."

“We selected BOARD because, together with its flexibility, it gives us a new approach. For us, this challenging journey wasn’t a mere project. Rather, it was a program, a new path towards an end-to-end budgeting, planning, and forecasting process."

“Launching the new controlling solution greatly improved the quality of work in the corporate planning division."

"The scalability and security of Microsoft Azure helps BOARD deliver powerful business analytics and CPM solutions for its global customers."

“It’s just simple things we now take for granted. From a company perspective it was a great decision to deploy BOARD because we were able to become more efficient and achieve cost savings. And because everyone is so much more self-sufficient, the finance team is now free to concentrate on bigger and better things.”

"BOARD has introduced our organization to a flexible Business Intelligence tool that can be used to mine data and create dynamic dashboards with minimal Information Technology Technical Resources. BOARD combines the capabilities to develop dashboards, work flow applications, and database write back in a single tool. This foundation will allow our businesses to create applications to optimize data, streamline process, and support our data driven strategy."

"BOARD is part of a strategic process. Our main goal was to increase quality and speed, and thanks to the centralized, versatile platform, that’s exactly what we did."

"BOARD’s product differentiates itself from many other CPM products because of its single application approach and joint focus on business intelligence (BI) and CPM functionality within the same interface."

"The integration of planning, business intelligence and advanced analytics into one comprehensive solution is an essential part of effective, efficient corporate control and management and should therefore be considered in the software selection process."

"With Board we are now able to see what is happening in our stores, what is not happening, what should happen, and how to react to what we see to improve performance."

"One of the most advantageous aspects of using Board is the possibility to go from analysis per single item to group evaluations, and vice versa, in an extremely dynamic and flexible way depending on need. Previously, we were forced to perform analyses within certain, very rigid limits; for example, we could think at an aggregate level, but we could not go down to a detail level for a single item. Board's flexibility of analysis is fundamental because for certain new items, core business items or those for which we have a particular commercial policy, we need to perform detailed evaluations; meanwhile it is more suitable for other items to think in aggregate terms while maintaining the possibility of going down to the detail level. The same occurs at the level of temporary entities, allowing us to conduct analyses easily in different timeframes depending on our needs."

"The ability to bring the system along ourselves has always been important. The more we use it, the more ideas we have about what we'd like it to do."

"With Board Financial Consolidation 4.0 we automatically consolidate 96 reporting units, 16 nodes, 19 currencies, 285 cost centers, and 229 product groups."

"The consolidation of this data is very time-consuming and labor-intensive, especially since not all employees send back the Excel files in the specified formats and templates, meaning they must be reworked manually."
