Overall Satisfaction with Windward Core - Document Generation Components
Windward's Document Generation Software is one of the best products out there for aggregating and displaying data from disparate sources. If it can't be done natively, which is rare, you have the ability to extend it through code. We have it integrated with our project reporting database to generate weekly status reports for our clients. No need to track someone down for their hours, tasks that were worked on, and how much time was spent. It truly cuts down the time a project manager needs to assemble a status report.
- Handles data from disparate sources.
- Uses well-adopted Microsoft Word as the template designer interface.
- Ability to integrate with existing applications.
- Ability to extend functionality.
- Reusable component creation.
- User friendly error messages.
- PDF output sometimes not exact and requires some minor tweaks.
- Perhaps more out of the box chart options.
- Increased productivity by over 50%.
- Helped my customers reduce their report template footprint by 75%.
- Freed up IT resources for other tasks.
SharePoint is a nice tool, however, it requires a lot of effort to create the forms and code for pulling in data if it's not within SharePoint itself. Maintenance of reports will require SharePoint knowledge as well. Windward removes many obstacles in traditional report generation.
