We observed BOARD to be a simple to utilize and greatly adaptable instrument that has enhanced our business forms. As a developer who might spend innumerable hours creating reports to meet the regularly changing business prerequisites, I was overwhelmed in the POC by the easy to understand interface and the simplicity to make reports so rapidly on the travel to meet our whole business needs. I have not made another report program since, as BOARD can do everything. Not exclusively is it a great device for making reports and dashboards, yet the guaging and planning capacities that permits compose back to 3D squares and the running of situations, makes it an across the board BI device. One element throughout the years that our business has grasped is the Excel Add-in highlight, and because of its simple to utilize interface, clients can run reports in Excel themselves. When hoping to cooperate with a BI programming merchant, we had a couple of key abilities that we were searching for in an answer. These abilities included:
- The item should be anything but difficult to setup and arrange and not require extensive task usage courses of events
- the item should have the capacity to engage the end clients to make dynamic perceptions to help the necessities of their business
- Support for the examination must not require a multitude of engineers or specialized staff to keep up the application.
A considerable lot of our clients are mid-showcase organizations that can't manage the cost of huge costly revealing arrangements, yet at the same time require the quality and ease of use factors that clients get from the more costly off the rack items. BOARD gave the greater part of this thus considerably more. Our clients start acknowledging esteem very quickly following the underlying execution, representation their business in manners they have never possessed the capacity to through powerful intelligent dashboards and reports. The item likewise offers our clients with an approach to rapidly stay aware of their evolving business. With BOARD, as the business changes and new inquiries should be asked, the item furnishes the topic specialists with the capacity to progressively make important perceptions to discover their answers. No requirement for report essayists when you have a controller or back office client who knows the correct things to ask to influence the execution of the association. With this item, gone are the times of the specialized business expert endeavoring to intrude on the demand from the business, and rather the business is currently making precisely what they require with little contribution from IT.

BOARD is a vigorous device that requires a far reaching and appropriate setup. It doesn't indicate what neglects to stack in detail from the Board Data Reader log. It doesn't consider both field and segments perusing in the meantime. We ought to never need to knead/control any documents GL concentrates to stack into Board. It doesn't take into consideration exemption maps. On-line documentation and Knowledge Base is restricted. BOARD could utilize a couple of increasingly extra perceptions inside its containers as its rivals discharge new visuals continually through a crowdfunding system with control clients and designers. It ought to incorporate all Customer Case call goals and Server establishment prerequisites. Nexel is a decent begin, yet should be on Rows, other than Columns. Likewise, there's a bug with just perusing the first section. Next, we require designing in DataViews. Another open door is Dependency Reporting for dynamic DataView Reports demonstrating determined levels. Ultimately, Class Attribute Filtering estimations. Offering Advanced implementer preparing and accreditations would be useful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is not so "easy" the individual approach for making report, dashboard and procedure...
Maybe new release will be more compliant to internal developer.

Sometimes reports are not easy to create. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The customization Board offers is unparalleled, I have never seen a similar level in other tools.
In the same reports used by my colleagues, I am able to mix and match different categories and segments and hide different columns with ease without the fear of deleting something.
I know that I can always go back with little difficulty. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
While Board offers the beforementioned complete customization, the UX and the speed are two major hurdles.
It has a steep learning level, which cuts out immediately most executives who use Board at most once or twice per month, so every month they have to re-learn how their reports are structured.
Another big issue is speed, trying to use more than 4-5 categories at once crashes the system and the only way to back out is to refresh the page, and I have to set again the filters, losing me a lot of time.
There is still some work on the UX to be done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
What I like about Board is the fact that it starts with a blank sheet for each and every company. With Board each company can create a solution which completely fits the organization's culture and way of working. Board is a no-code solution which makes is easy to interpret and understand. Screens and procedures can be created by drag and drop functionalities and it does not get more complex than IF statements, multiplications and divisions. Lastly, Board is a platform which allows customers to expand easily to any process within their business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The idea of having a blank sheet from the start can also be a risk for implementations. Customers really need to dedicate their time to the project at the beginning together with the implementation partner to make sure that the basis of the model is robust and well considered. In case this dedication is not present it is very easy to run into problems at a later stage of the model because of design decisions that were made in the beginning.

The only aspect we had to manage was the "presentation" topic.
We use Board to create excel for tables and schemes for final ppt presentation, but only for a better shape and form. Board does not have many aspect solution as excel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Board is an intuitive, all-in-one environment where reporting, analytics, and planning blend into one.
