What do you like best about Cube Software?

Other spreadsheets like Google spreadsheets and Microsoft excel mkes multiple mistakes with the updates and this is avoided through Cube software. Usually the manual inputs would take a lot of input energy and time. This labor energy is avoided as Cube can automate the manual inputs. Customer support is good for thee software and even though the company is new and still growing, the updates usually fix the small glitches. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cube Software?

Since the world is moving towards AI, I wish to see AI compability with the data using Cube. This would save a lot of time and make things easier for others. The implementation of data also is difficult because of the data transfer where Cube has 4 predefined custom dimentions and transfering them is complex. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cube Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

Data analysis of the big data files that I work with, it makes things easier for me Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cube Software?

Really happy with the overall flexbility of the system, with ability to have transactional and operational data all in one place! As it is based in excel, it is easy to look at things in different ways to quickly analyze data or change the drivers of your forecast. The customer support and IT teams have been phenomenal, especially as it relates to the new dashboard feature. The team is always willing to look in to my particular use case for presenting data a certain way, and is quick to respond with the best way how to do it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cube Software?

There is no in depth training as every user's use case is slightly different. Needed outside help to implement to get fully up and running. Had to rebuild all forecast models in excel in a way that was compatible to load the data into Cube, which was more time consuming than anticipated. Additionally, formatting of reports does not save in Cube, so every time you go to fetch/build something from the system, you have to re-format or manually add new account to an existing report in excel. Gets trickly when business is constantly evolving/changing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cube Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

Can spend a lot less time aggregating/organizing data and running financial reports out of our accounting system if new entries are made. This allows more time to focus on analyzing the business. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cube Software?

I really enjoyed working with the support team at Cube. The implementation process was very efficient. In two weeks our company was up and running with Cube thanks to the support team. Once starting to use the product most of the features are intuitive and easy to learn. Areas that were pain points the support team worked as hard as they could to provide us with a solution. Cube is working to continue to iterate their product and provide new features. Cube also listens to their customers for feedback which is great as a power user. Their engineering and design teams have listened to my feedback on multiple occasions as they work to consistently improve the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cube Software?

The least helpful areas of Cube are based on specifics with the ability to build models within excel. A few features (such as updating and fetching ranges) have to be done each time an adjustment is made to a model. I do feel like within excel updates happen while the model is being built (or by just fetching new data, without having to re-build the range, etc). I will say our company is more focused on detailed modeling using all Cube functions than a traditional FP&A team, and Cube support understands these frustrations and have it in their queue to resolve which is exciting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cube Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

The ability to quick performance the month end close using templated excel models. Creating budget and forecasting models. Ability to scale out our FP&A team with all employees working collaboratively and uploading results in a shared model. Version control is also very convenient. Cube integrates our financial and non financial metrics all in the cloud so we can build complex excel models at a fast pace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Preston Lam of Cube Software

Hi Ethan,

Happy to hear you've been able to get started quickly and have been noticing our latest features. I will check internally to see if we can nudge along your concerns. Time saved during month-end close is music to our ears!

What do you like best about Cube Software?

User friendly and helps with analysis at all levels of detail (from a consolidated P&L view or from detailed transaction level). We also really like the "Publish" feature which we use to create forecasts and compare to actuals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cube Software?

Due to the level of detail the software has, implementation can be time consuming. That being said, once set up, there's minimal ongoing maintenance required. There are also some nuances to using the software that are only discovered through trial and error. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cube Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

Cube acts as a centralized source of truth for our forecasts which is extremely helpful. It also helps us deep dive into actuals, without needing to use our ERP system (which is not user friendly). Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cube Software?

Our team has been using Cube for a little over two years and it was a sorely needed replacement to for Oracle PBCS. Since then, our company has gone through significant change, building new revenue streams & reorganizing. Cube provided us with the flexibility and usability that we needed to navigate change. We love the easy-to-use Dimension Manager and calculated fields.

One of our favorite things, is it's compatibility with Google Sheets. Our organization is primarily on GSuite, so this helped move our team away from excel based reporting and into GSheets which was compatible with the org.

Overall this has been a very positive transition for the team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cube Software?

Our favorite feature is also our biggest frustration. The Google Sheet add-in in extremely slow and occassionally times out with large queries. If you make a duplicate of a file, you will need to reselect your range to pull a query. It is slow and frustrating, but we are happy to have the connectivity.

No simultaneous loading (ie. two teammates cannot load at the same time). At this time, Cube is not an ideal prodcut for larger teams. It's works for a team of 3 but we occassionally run into issues when teammembers have to delay their loads while we wait for another to complete. I'm sure that this issue would only compound with added teammembers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cube Software?

Cube integrates seemlessly with Google Sheets which has made budgeting on both a product and account level much easier and much more collaborative because it doesn't require logging in to a different system and subsequent training. It has also significantly reduced the amount of time it takes to produce the financials which has allowed for futher development of new reporting templates. We also see so much value in connecting other data sources to Cube beyond on our financial data. The opportunities to replace more manual reporting processes are endless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cube Software?

I would like for there to be an easy way to view and fetch data into all Cube linked spreadsheets without having to login to each one individually, but this by no means should be a deterrent from using Cube. It is an excellent tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cube Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

Budgeting on a more granular level, more detailed reporting on budget to actuals. more detailed and summarized reporting views for all stakeholders, producing financials in record time Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cube Software?

Through the use of Cube, we have automated a significant number of manual processes. Data is accumulated, analyzed and reviewed more effectively, which saves the Finance team time and allows the sharing of information to business partners. When we've provided product feedback, the team has been quick to add it to the solution roadmap and address. I appreciate how Cube takes customer feedback and is continuously innovating on their product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cube Software?

I think the tool could have had a stronger day 1 integration with our accounting ERP. Although the day 1 look and feel left room for improvement, the Cube team addressed concerns and updated the product functionality. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cube Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

Managing the budget cycle was previously a manual process. Cube has allowed for a much more automated process with less manual intervention and opportunity for error. The tool also has allowed for easily adjusted reporting which assists with the month end close process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Cube Software?

Cube is based completely off of the excel platform and it works perfectly. There is a small, and I mean very small, learning curve for pulling data from the cloud into excel, and once that is done, if you can build it in excel it will work with Cube. Their CSM's have all been incredible to work with. Fast and friendly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cube Software?

I had two complaints with the Cube software and they recently fixed both of those issue. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Cube Software solving and how is that benefiting you?

Cube has allowed us as a company to build out budgets, forecasts, as well as pulling budget vs actuals in a split second without needing to open multiple spreadsheets and trying to marry them together. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
