### "Versatile Business Intelligence and CPM Tool"

September 24, 2024

4.0

Board International is a robust solution for companies looking to streamline reporting, analytics, and planning. It’s feature-rich and adaptable, but it could benefit from a more modern interface and improved performance with larger data volumes.

Pros

Board International provides powerful data visualization and reporting capabilities. Its all-in-one approach combines business intelligence (BI), performance management, and planning into a single platform, making it highly versatile.

Cons

The learning curve can be steep for new users, and the interface feels a bit dated compared to other BI tools. Performance can lag with large datasets.

### "The most powerful and versatile BI system I have ever used"

March 21, 2018

5.0

Pros

As a complete BI solution, BOARD allows a developer to easily create the structures required to build extremely powerful and fast data models by using 'sparsity' - the method of calculating the actual space required for cube objects. A great strength in modelling is the ability to rename and change relationships on the fly. With a logical and very visual interface, BOARD is a pleasant environment to work in,which enhances productivity. BOARD is able to provide end users the ability write back to cubes and create and amend entities. This ability makes the creation of workflows and security processes possible; a manager can add users and determine their level of access without returning to the developers. real time dynamic geo-charts allow for contextual maps to be created. BOARD have now opened the BOARD Community where users can ask questions in forums as well as help other users. Example data models can be uploaded as well as associated documentation and videos. The community site is one of the best forums I have ever used and the community members are clearly passionate about the software, as well as very knowledgeable. There are a number of unique concepts which, once understood, really open up the power of BOARD and through the community, all users can gain this knowledge quickly and in a fun way as well as discuss ideas with their peers and consultants alike. The forum is in addition to the formal support portal. I have used several enterprise BI systems and BOARD is by far the most exciting, fun and logical system I have ever used. It makes work truly enjoyable and provides a great sense of satisfaction when the developer discovers something new all the time.

Cons

Without the community forum, learning the unique skills to leverage BOARD over other apps was a slow process, even after attending the full training package in London. However, with the latest release and with direct access to BOARD experts and peers, BOARD has become a very exciting and enjoyable app to work on everyday and I cannot, at this point, state any cons. That is not to say that there are'nt any, just that what issues I did have have all been addressed in the latest release and with access to the community

### "Il miglior sistema di Business Intelligence in circolazione!"

October 30, 2023

5.0

Pros

Da It manager ho contribuito alla selezione di questo sistema di Business Intelligence che permette di raggruppare i dati che l'azienda raccoglieva e che erano necessari alle decisioni.Permette la creazione di dashboard funzionali e molto semplici da leggere.La semplicità è sinonimo di immediatezza in questo caso: abbiamo riunito all'interno di un unico cruscotto i dati relativi alle vendite, agli acquisti, al personale e siamo riusciti anche ad incrociare i dati per arrivare alla redazione di utili kpi.Necessario per un'azienda che intenda managerializzarsi e intenda digitalizzare i propri processi.

Cons

I costi delle licenze non sono a buon mercato e non sempre l'assistenza clienti è superlativa ma sono inconvenienti assolutamente trascurabili rispetto ai vantaggi che tale software Bi fornisce

### "With Board, coordinating logistics is much easier"

June 9, 2022

4.0

We use this software to coordinate in a simple but effective way, all the logistics of shipments, routes and freight of our products to different customers nationwide. It has a tracking system that allows us to know the exact location of the cargo in real time.

Pros

The program sends real-time alerts of the entire route of the goods and the entire supply chain, notifying the arrival of the goods, if there is any delay or mishap. It has a fleet management tool, where we can organize and control the entire fleet of trucks, those that are on the route, those that are about to leave, their location and many other important details. It also allows a complete tracking of drivers, to know their history, mileage, location and determine the safety of the load.

Cons

Real-time updates on the location of the parcel do not load properly without a stable internet connection. The signature capture and barcode reader sometimes does not work, so we must restart the application and even the cell phone to read it. I would like the integrations to be simpler. A lot of configuration is needed for the programs I need to work correctly within the software.

### "Powerful CPM and BI"

May 18, 2022

5.0

Board offers the advantage of presenting and interpreting data and metrics with the most attractive reports in a unified way and with visually attractive dashboards, with information updated in real time.

Pros

It has an intuitive user interface and the preparation of reports and graphs is really easy to share. It provides a rich set of predefined data connectors ready to be used. Accessing the different data sources is easy, without complications that interrupt data management.

Cons

They can improve the response time of customer support and on the other hand, more documentation is needed to deepen the use of their functions.

### "Software di BI perfetto per aziende di grandi dimensioni"

August 23, 2023

5.0

Pros

Ho aiutato nell'implementazione e customizzazione di questo software di Bi che permette l'automazione della reportistica e delle statistiche.Trovo davvero utile la possibilità di creare reportistiche personalizzate e customer oriented: credo che da questo punto di vista sia uno dei migliori software presenti sul mercato.Utilizzabile anche per la creazione di budget e forecast.

Cons

Sicuramente il costo delle licenze non è a buon mercato, ma proporzionalmente il costo per grandi imprese è minore rispetto a quanto sarebbe per le aziende più piccole.

### "Easy to implement & to deploy new project"

March 8, 2018

4.0

Pros

I've started to use Board in 2007, with 6.0 version. In this 11 year of use Board continue in develop easy to use and easy to develop Environment. I like most the support, in particular when they give not only solve to the problem, but give develop solution. Another issue I like is Board in "ALL IN ONE", so you don't need another tool to make your CPM environment . I think that this tools to give to customer the best quality price Ratio (CPM Product)

Cons

I really don't have anything to say in this box, but if I must say something, the documentation could be improved.

### "Our company uses BOARD as Management information System tool combining it's BI capabilities with CPM"

January 18, 2018

4.0

Pros

\- Very flexible software that can be setup in a couple of days - User can setup it's own reports either in BOARD directly or in the Excel/Powerpoint environment - The smaller size of the vendor allows a good relationship with consultants, technicians and marketing experts from the headquarter - Good working interface to SAP, CRM MS Dynamics and Cognos TM1 - Very logical setup of the database structure

Cons

\- Limited performance of the Excel addin causes some crashes - When purchasing the software as a BI tool it has to be considered the need of a datamart.

### "Board has helped us trim time off our monthly close process and engage more with stakeholders"

December 20, 2017

5.0

Faster reporting with more flexibility, more reports, more engagement from stakeholders due to increased communication around pertinent and timely information.

Pros

Board is great at merging useful data from multiple outside sources including Accounting software, Payroll, time and attendance, and even scheduling software. Through relationship management we have been able to analyze data that wasn't previously available to us.

Cons

With every flexible system there is a degree of maintenance and Board is no stranger to that maintenance. Unless you keep up with it, it can become overwhelming.

### "Very good product, easy to use and to implement, with great functionalities useful for business"

January 5, 2018

5.0

I can produce data for analysis in a easiest way and faster. I made the user independent in its own job for control and planning and gave to the management the visibility of the trend of business with simple dashboards

Pros

It was easy and fast to create a lot of dashboard and reports with a very large amount of data so that final users can do analysis of the business in few time. All new requests can be performed without trouble.

Cons

I appreciate very much this software and I didn't find any big issue till now. There's only one thing I have noticed: in a dashboard containing a summary table it's not possible to place the sum of the columns in the first row but only at the end and this is not helpful in case of a large number of rows.

### "An intuitive software"

March 6, 2021

5.0

My experience with Board for more than two years, this is enough time to get to know this robust tool perfectly, Board works perfectly from day one.

Pros

Linking Board to multiple data sources is phenomenal, this is why I like Board the most. I know this tool like the back of my hand because it is so intuitive.

Cons

I do not feel any negative thoughts towards Board, on the contrary, I think he is the best, he is very intuitive and for me this is more than enough to be able to love him.

### "Statistiche a portata di mano"

May 5, 2021

4.0

Pros

Utilizzo Board sia come Bi che come CPM. Come CPM lo ritengo molto utile perchè permette di automatizzare o scarnire di molto alcuni processi come il budgeting o il bilancio aziendale. Come BI mi permette di avere le mie statistiche a portata di mano e soprattutto permette l'accesso e la visione dei report ad utenti differenti.

Cons

Il processo di implementazione e le logiche sottostanti sono complesse e se usato solo come BI, probabilmente sarebbe un po' troppo elaborato anche da mantenere. Come CPM lo consiglio molto.

### "#1 BI & CPM Tool"

June 28, 2016

5.0

I have been using Board Mit for one year in my previous working experience. Later, I had chance to get in touch with IBM Cognos, MS SQL based BI Tools, Oracle BI and Qlikview. I am defentively acknowledged that Board MIT is the best tool outhere: unique platform (IT skill huge savings), easy to use (fast adoption across the departments), fully functional on dashboarding, reporting, analisys, analytics, what-if and what-for scenarios (save tons of money and time).

Pros

Easy to use, complete, scalable, desireable for business orchestration.

Cons

The platform in itself is an instrument. To gather the best out of your investment you have to run a proper partner selection. Software Houses add lower value respect to business oriented consultants

I very much like it and it really helps getting rid of a million excel files and in having one source of truth. Would recommend it!

Pros

Clean and powerful concepts behind, easy to set up new data pools, reports, screens and share it with the users

Cons

UI is web, but does not make use of modern technology. Obiously needed documentation (e.g. for syntax) is not available or accessible. Features are sometimes at different places on the UI where you don't expect it. Would need a cleaner concept

Pros

What I like about this solution is its reliability. I also really like to be autonomous. Finally, the contact with the Board France teams is very appreciable.

I don't have much perspective on the solution yet but I would say that managing the format by line by line is tedious.

Reason for choosing BOARD

January 29, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like that non-technical folks can build screens on their own, and if they want assistance, partners are there to help.

Cons

It's hard to compare BOARD to other products because it's more of a toolkit than an off-the-shelf software package.
