Actually, this was my first solution to financial data, to achieve the same level of satisfation that I have today with Planful is too complicated.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The excel's add-in, it's my favorite part. no doubt
What do you dislike most about this product?
Could be an application to run directly into windows, to avoid to use browsers
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
It's a great cloud service, during 6 years working with the Planful weekly, I saw a lot of improvements to make easier my financial activities, the add-in were completely changed to a better version, that can be used in Excel, or even Power Point and Word, means that they don't avoid hard work to achieve new business analysis for your customers. The database is easy manageable, can be create to according the client needs, could has for example capex projects, stock data, became the only/official database to extract financial business reports in the group, something impossible before Planful, has audit tools to track how the data is acess.
