Pros

This product looks like Excel and has some of the same functionality, but there are also additional tools. Most helpful is the GetData function, which allows you to quickly pull data from different tables.

Cons

There are row limits on tables, which means if you want to view a table with over 50,000 rows, you have to create a report to see the whole teable.

It has been a great time for us to use Axiom, unfortunately, it didn't work out for us to use the enterprise performance management software as it was complicated to use and customer support was not up to the mark.

Pros

It does help you manage all the risks and have everything visualised properly

Cons

It is expensive, once you go with axiom you cannot leave them as migration is nearly impossible unless you wanna start building your own data over again

I get the sense that financial institutions have taken a distant back seat to health care clients. Syntellis discusses having 3 main verticals: financial institutions, health care, and higher education. However, the years of Kaufman Hall ownership clearly solidified health care as their main vertical, and consequently, most of their support resources are allocated to health care clients. I miss the days when financial institution clients were cared for and treated well.

Pros

It's intuitive for Excel users since Excel sits behind the product. It's a powerful software that satisfies our needs in financial reporting, budgeting, forecasting, profitability reporting, incentive compensation, loan pricing, risk-adjusted capital allocation, etc. I feel like the cost has been well worth the output and information gained.

Cons

When we partnered with Axiom EPM in late 2012, their support was incredible. We would often have our issues resolved within an hour. Now it takes several days, on average, for resolution. I submitted an urgent support ticket earlier in the week. 3 full business days have passed without assignment (I can see the current status in the customer portal). I've complained to them about their support for a few years now, including a 30 minute conversation with their previous \[SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN\] last year. They kept saying that they're working to improve support, but this week is evidence that there are still major problems, especially when it comes to supporting financial institution clients.

Reasons for choosing Axiom Software

We saw Axiom as a superior and intuitive product having individuals there with deep knowledge of the needs of financial institutions. Their support was phenomenal (off the charts). They were actually supporting our previous vendor's product for free since many of them moved companies. Their support was a main reason we had confidence in them. Unfortunately, all of the original individuals with many years of banking experience are no longer there. It's a very different company today than the one we signed up with in 2012.

We are committed to providing the best experience to all of our clients, regardless of industry, and look forward to providing you and your team with an elevated level of support that meets your expectations, and ours. Thank you, The Syntellis Team

The tool has been great for automating reports thus cutting down on creating reports manually. The budget process also was much more simplistic even with greater amounts of detail..

Pros

The consolidation process runs smoothly and is fully automated. It also has functionality for the banking industry that includes FTP and RAROC.

Cons

Still needs work on dashboard functionality and ability to model information using R or a similar modeling language.
