Pros
Very good optimisation with multiple constraints. This system his able to produce in fast time investment solution for multiple portfolios. Solutions are in line with manual intervention. We saved 2-3 working days of manual solutions with Excel Spread sheet to make allocation and Asset Mix.
Cons
Some time new version or new Topick could produce Bugs with actual version. This Bugs are quickly fix but produce lost of time.
Overall
