256 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."

"Thanks to BOARD, it's easy to drill down to the source so we can manage the business based on up-to-date and consistent figures."

"BOARD was selected to support financial processes, data integration, reporting, analysis and graphical representation of information. We started by supporting the needs in our Finance departments and thanks to BOARD's simplicity and versatility it has been rapidly been adopted by other areas of the business."

"Before using BOARD we wasted a lot time with data entry now this time is used to make strategic decisions faster and more efficiently."

"We needed a tool capable of being flexible, allowing the collection, processing and distribution of complex information. A tool able to attribute to the forecast a fundamental role in the operational management of the Company."

“BOARD has allowed us to reunite all the company’s critical statistics in a single unequivocal vision, a perspective that makes possible a truly integrated management strategy. From a more technological point of view, I’d say that its simplicity of use, combined with its great flexibility and its ability to integrate data from any source whatsoever, have all enabled us to find solutions to our problems and requirements both quickly and effectively.”

“If we are in a meeting and someone wants to see what the next quarter looks like, they can just call the information up and it’s there on the screen.”

“The new tools offer the users standardized Planning and Analysis options in a previously unknown variety and at a good price-performance ratio.”

“Our team can get more involved in some really interesting projects with this time saved, it means we can push BOARD out to the teams that really understand their area of the business such as the Anti-Social Behaviour team monitoring resident behaviour and the Complaints teams to analyse and understand the maintenance performance. We have finance business partners that we push data out to and the use of BOARD has reduced the number of phone calls and hours spent quoting spreadsheets as the clean look and feel show information clearly and in an easily presentable way. Now the partners can understand their numbers and compare this with the non-financial data.”

“BOARD has enabled us to manage easily a complex consolidation process, reducing drastically the time required, improving overall governance and minimizing the risks.”

"The basis for the successful implementation of BOARD was the opportunity to allow for the individuality of our company units. At group level we benefit from considerably increased transparency and efficiency: Data from the different company units are now merged automatically for the first time and enable us to have an overall view at any time."

“We didn’t just want a replacement, we wanted to buy a product which made us future proof for the next 5-10 years and could take us to another level. We wanted a system that could produce our key performance indicators not just our financial numbers and we wanted to do it in one system rather than having it in multiple systems.”

"With the market moving faster these days with future data and past experience, the management is able to make – according to previous experience and future plans – quick decisions. All in all, the benefit of the tool is to move the organization from a gut decision to a fact based decision.”
