It is easy to deploy and unifies all workflows in a single platform Cons Formatting UI could be improved for the reports. The integrations with several other tools and data sources is also missing like with salesforce, google analytics etc Review source Incentivized review: software users are invited to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive for their time and effort.

Pros We use Argos to do daily, weekly, monthly, annual reportings. It has been very beneficial for SACSCOC reports. Cons For some reason, there seemed to be an issue with how to set up different reports in the IT department. I don't know if this was a software issue or user error.

Programmer/Analyst Education Management ### "Good, but can be clunky" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 3.0 3.0 Customer Service 4.0 4.0 Likelihood to Recommend 6/10 November 24, 2020 It's a bit clunky at times, but as we've figured it out Argos can be pretty good at putting together reports and dashboards. Pros Argos makes it fairly easy to access the information you want. It can quickly access tables, give you previews, and set up a basic form very quickly. For simple stuff, it is really good. Cons Where Argos is lacking is it's polish and ease of use. It can be difficult and finnicky to set up complicated reports. The charting functionality isn't great. There are also differences between the client and web viewer versions of the products, which makes access different from some users.

Pros Argos is a great software to create reports, even using different databases. I am able to compile reports from the whole department and read and compare results. Cons It is a little hard to understand the software layout at the beginning, but they have videos and tutorials to help you get used to it.

Academic specialist Higher Education ### "Glad We Switches " 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 4.0 4.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 7/10 December 3, 2019 Use this for course scheduling, pulling the semester Schedules in a breeze. We also use this for locating our majors and their emails in order to develop and update our undergraduate lietserv Pros This is a much better product than Crystal Reports which we used before. It’s quite easy to use! What I like most is that when you print out a data sheet/report on the last page it leaves a trail of how you got to that report. I also like that you can save the reports in various formats to ensure the data prints out accurately. Cons Our program is ALWAYS down so not sure if that is something related to Argos or the campus system/servers. But, we get emails almost daily that reporting is on hold until an issue is fixed.

AU Anonymous User Assistant Director, Operations and Data Management Higher Education ### "Excellent Higher Education Enterprise Reporting" 5.0 Overall Rating 5.0 5.0 Ease of Use 5.0 5.0 Features 4.0 4.0 Customer Service 0.0 0.0 Likelihood to Recommend 8/10 November 26, 2019 We use Argos to report out of Ellucian's Banner for end users. The software, for these needs, is reliable and straight forward to use. Pros The ability to have reports scheduled to run and be run on demand is vital for my team. I value that you are able to access the reporting platform via the web or an application. The application/desktop version is more robust and is my preferred option. Exporting reports to .csv's is a good option with data manipulation needs to occur. Dashboards in Argos are helpful for viewing records and other items without having to export data. Cons The inability to view the SQL logic behind the reports/queries is frustrating as an end user. I understand from a security perspective why this is not allowed. The web interface tends to time out on larger/more complex queries.

Accounts Payable Analyst Higher Education ### "Good functionality, poor visuals" 4.0 Overall Rating 4.0 4.0 Ease of Use 3.0 3.0 Features 5.0 5.0 Customer Service 5.0 5.0 Likelihood to Recommend 5/10 July 23, 2019 Pros There is essentially an unlimited number of reports that can be pulled using enterprise data with this software. I like the shortcut feature to help with access to daily use reports. Cons UI feels antiquated, mapping of reports can be a hassle if you don't remember exactly where a report is kept.
