Facilitates leveraging the query reporting engine and modeling engine into Excel spreadsheets but there is room for improvement in terms of performance
There's a tool called Office Connect that leverages what I call the benefits of both worlds, where we can use the query reporting engine and the modeling engine that's in Adaptive Insights and leverage it into, like, an Excel spreadsheet. That's pretty popular with a lot of our client partners. Also, the ability to build models to do revenue models or expense or personal planning, and bottoms-up planning. Really, having a tool for a single source of truth. So when you have a lot of typical when we think of the process where a lot of planners are involved, separate spreadsheets. And if you have a lot of people involved, then you have that. Usually, it can be a nightmare. Trying to, right, aggregate that together. So, the aggregation option of the tool is really a big plus.

​Areas where you load your CapEx still need a lot of improvements however, it is easy to build a report.
* The products are linked to operational software (SAP) through an ODBC connection, so uploading the data is just on the click of a button * Creating a forecast or budget model is very simple * The turn around time and accuracy has improved dramatically * Analysis became much easier
