What do you like best about Board?

Board is an outstanding system that offers clients with a set of resources to turn relevant data into knowledge for analysis in a single visual interface. One aspect that I enjoy about Board is that it enriches decision-making on its website so that you can create unique graphical insights and evaluation in moments. I always found Board to be a website that provides its clients with fast, reliable and correct access to the necessary details. Another aspect I believe is that Boardis very versatile, because it has already helped us to develop our activities very specifically and in line with our specifications. Ultimately Board is an excellent tool with such a high level of flexibility and is also very absolute. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Board?

Board has been an extremely accurate and innovative program, I always admire its strong flexibility, because it has already made it possible for us to carry out different assignments very effectively. I truly feel that Board is a program that does not function for the unexperienced, because Board is such an all-round framework that this was not straightforward to deal with with without some kind of practice, I honestly encourage people who are working this system to get the best service and use it to a considerable extent. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Board:

In particular I find Board as a very revolutionary framework that helps the clients to improve their jobs tremendously. Board is a framework that is characterized by its simplicity and very comprehensive design. In addition to the app, this is a computer-based platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Board solving and how is that benefiting you?

About three years, we already partnered with Board and consider Board as an incredibly efficient and versatile platform which has significantly enhanced our management operations. Once we actually met this program, we have to satisfy really particular needs and accommodate different roles and it really was a really hard process to do. Board was really a resource that helped us improve our job and we could use it as much as possible. The whole team usually feels extremely relaxed with Board.

What do you like best about Board?

BOARD is a platform that stands out for providing a highly secure and solid service to give its users confidence at all times. BOARD allows its users to create extremely powerful and fast data model structures by using the "scatter" method, the best method available today to calculate the actual space required for cube objects.

Overall BOARD is a very accurate and easy to configure platform, really BOARD is very convenient to use because of the many positive aspects it offers to people. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Board?

One of the disadvantages or weaknesses that BOARD currently has is that some graphic settings are not customization and although it is not a performance issue it is a limitation in use. Also a big problem that BOARD has is that their support team is very slow to help users solve problems with the platform, the last time we had a problem with BOARD we had to wait four hours for the support team to provide us with answers and it was really something very frustrating for us since our organization depends greatly on BOARD.

What do you like best about Board?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Board?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Board solving and how is that benefiting you?

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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
