The ultimate feature is the product it produces. The ROI around that saves hours and hours. It's probably about a hundred days per year. The time savings and the ability to turn it around quickly pleases our customers.
The solution is very flexible, so you can create anything you want. Think of the possibilities you have in Excel or in Word, because these are the two document generators that are used the most. I only use Word, but I can use nearly every feature in Word, including making charts and tables, and produce those features in Windward, parametrically.

Thanks to Windward, our documents need very few tweaks and are usually "customer-ready" right out of the box.

You can use Microsoft Office as your designer interface. There is very little programming. You can have nontechnical people create reports.

The engine being able to sit inside of our firewall is the most important feature.
