    Board is a useful tool with a great set of features. We migrated from human apps to board and we find it relatively fast in search results and better-managed threads and forums. There are some areas, such as UI and interactions which could be improved but overall a great product. The learning section is also pretty good.

    Scenarios where CCH Tagetik is suitable is when a company have large amounts of data and want to transform, consolidate, store and produce reporting in different year, period etc with complex calculations and allocation. Tagetik is the tool for you in this case and it's very flexible in terms of creating your own business rule, calculation and reporting options with a user friendly interface. I have not thought about scenarios where it is not appropriate to use tagetik yet as the tool covers small and large business financial needs

    Pros
    Board International
    • The user interface is intuitive and easy to navigate
    • You don't need programming knowledge to create dashboards which is a great flex for non-technical users
    • You can seamlessly convert large, raw, and complex data to meaningful reports to visualize better and plan to act accordingly
    • The financial forecasting that Board provides post-analysis is truly reliable

    • Processes are clearly described in CCH Tagetik ; users can easily find where they are and which action they have to make
    • Interaction with Excel is really fluid ; the Excel add-in is easy to deploy and to updgrade, in the hand of users. It is reliable provided the internet connection is fast.
    • Managing hierachies is obvious in CCH Tagetik. Hierarchies are fundamental for a good reporting ; CCH Tagetik has obviously a deep experience of this feature.
    • SaaS : our experience with CCH Tagetik is of only 1 year, but it technically performs well, the system is reponsive, no shut-down, and updates (every quarter) do not disturb production.
    • AIH seems to be able to manage very large quantity of data, and to provide advanced analysis functionalities. We did not have time to explore them.

    Cons
    Board International
    • Board BI tool has a steep learning curve and can be challenging for a new user to reach to board's full capacity.
    • We have to use a windows scheduler to schedule data import tasks; it would be great if Board could provide its own scheduler.

    • Online help and manual is a bonus but could be improved e.g. the clarity of English explanations.
    • Improved Excel compatibility e.g. formula driven reporting and dash boarding.
    • Mobile phone connectivity e.g. launching a consolidation from a Wolters Kluwer CCH® Tagetik app.

    Board is a fantastic product for swift BI solution delivery when compared with its peers. Ease of use, support and integration with Microsoft Office Addin open a wide horizon of opportunities for further enhancements to solutions. Easy bespoke app development capabilities make it a winner for us. BOARD is just like a white canvas, it lets you explore your creative side while designing and delivering a solution

    Because in my oppinion Wolters Kluwer CCH Tagetik is one of the most usable tools for consolidation, planning (controlling) and reporting. Its usability is quite easy and innovative. I like the data entry method for the customers with its workflow and tasks, quite easy way to implement a co pilot. And i like the reporting tool, with a lot of customization opportunities.

    Usability
    Board International
    From a user perspective, Board is quite simple to use. You
    can evaluate the presentation of the data, the navigation, the configuration of
    the users, the selection of the data etc ... It would have a better rating if
    it were even more intuitive as regards the construction of a project, starting
    from the database, to the info-cubes, to entities, to data acquisition
    procedures from other servers.

    Surprisingly, this platform is a powerhouse ERP system. However, given time, when more and more organization is able to identify how powerful this tool can be, CCH Tagetik is able to stand as a competitive advantage to many of the Financial industry of today. Although, it needs time to understand the logic behind how CCH Tagetik is formed and setup, once it is known to the user, it is an easy day to day operations with minimal maintenance.

    The only time I needed assistance was due to a problem in
    the prints: the colors of the brochures as they were on the screen were not
    reproduced in the print, but a series of standard colors were reproduced. This
    fact made colored numbers on a colored background illegible. From the
    assistance they confirmed that it was a problem of version 10.2 that occurred
    when leaving the brochures with the default colors proposed by Board. To obtain
    the desired colors, they had to be personalized ... I didn't like the solution
    very much and the technician who recommended it didn't like me either, but they
    would have solved the problem with the following versions. In any case, the
    assistance was quick and effective even if not exactly efficient.

    The problem of user profiling in our context is certainly
    quite complex. The complexity is given by the fact that the company is divided
    territorially into logistic points of sale, but at the same time they are
    virtually divided into divisions (or specific implementation areas) and points
    of sale of competence. The same operator can have access to data at different
    logistic sales points, sales points of competence and divisions.

    Board has been more complete when compared to Anaplan. Although I didn't participate in the buying decision of any of those products I have used both and by far Board just has more features. It's more than a CPM, it's BI and CPM put together. If I had to make a choice now it would be Board.

    I found the Excel piece of IBM Cognos TM1 to be easier to use than CCH Tagetik. It was much easier to customize the data being pulled and the feel of the reports because of that. Other than that, CCH Tagetik has been more user friendly than IBM Cognos TM1. Navigating within the application is much easier. IBM Cognos TM1 had a lot of issues with certain modules that could not be open concurrently; this would often lead to phantom data being entered in the system. I have not had these issues with CCH Tagetik.

    • Gave us a tool that can absolutely grow with us to help multi phase implementations.
    • A significant time savings in terms of the amount of time we used to spend running reports vs. the time we spend now. Unbelievable improvement.
    • Gives us the option to use CCH Tagetik to solve business problems that perhaps we didn't have when we implemented CCH Tagetik. It gives us options without the possibility of implementing a whole other software package.
