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."

“The processing time of the actual data has been reduced significantly and now this gives us more time to do reliable, self-service actual analysis, without requiring coding skills and with the highest flexibility and an easy-to-use interface. BOARD has increased the efficiency of our processes of income statement budgeting, sales and investment forecasting & planning.”

“With BOARD, operations are performed on a single database containing sales data and the SOP process, all consolidated with a single reconciliation rather than via multiple cubes. This means that each process reads the same data and analysis is performed on the same database rather than on different cubes, thus guaranteeing unambiguity and normalisation of information across the entire organisation."

“The facility not only to view data, but also to edit it easily. This is the plus that distinguishes BOARD in absolute terms, and it's a feature that the application can actually deliver, unlike in the case of alternative tools, for which it remains purely theoretical.”

"We chose BOARD for the flexibility of the solution and the speed of its implementation. Today, the tool is used daily by the Sales and Marketing teams and the Finance team has increased efficiency because the data is harmonized."

“I am quite a frequent user of BOARD. I go in on a regular basis to see how we are tracking against our forecast and our budget. Every week we have a refresh of the data and all the finance users work on the same sets of updated data. I am using that data to make decisions about resource planning, upcoming projects, how much we are going to drive advertising and what kind of advertising contracts we should deal with over the coming year. It does power quite a lot of decision-making.”

“That’s one of the real benefits of BOARD. Previously we were spending so much time with the input and the management of the models that we really didn’t have enough time to add value. Now as the reporting manager I can add the value by analyzing, reviewing and giving appropriate comments. Therefore, we’re completely on top of our numbers. Now we have built real structure, routine and familiarity into the reporting process which didn’t exist before.”

"BOARD effectively supports Modine's global integration challenges, providing tangible added value to all business processes.”

“BOARD is a valuable resource for every department to monitor and track their results compared to the past and the target, thanks to its flexibility and capability to support the business' evolution.”

“The projects we have implemented within BOARD have resulted in solutions that require minimal management, relieving the IT team of maintenance and support activities as key users are able to manage their applications independently. Rapid development times and the low demand on IT resources at organisational level mean that the Total Cost of Ownership is small compared with the results obtained. For users, the most attractive features are the fast creation of analytical environments, without programming of any kind, and the ease of data navigation.”

"BOARD has provided visibility of our data to assist in making good business decisions and to track how we are doing in achieving our goals."

"We selected BOARD and it addressed Excel’s inadequacies, cut the technical reliance, and gave us the self-sufficiency we were seeking. I would even say BOARD contributed to the company’s growth in a then overall falling market. So naturally I wanted a fast start in the new company – it’s survival was at stake.”

“There’s no comparison between BOARD and our previous systems. Compared to other systems I’ve used in larger companies, BOARD is the best.”
