Cube Planning, Inc
1) The budget process. In QBO the budgeting capability is non-existant, unless you like manually typing in every scenario and not being able to budget by class. Cube houses my budget/forecast scenarios & lets me view and analyze by my company's preferred data points; department, GL account, vendor, & sales campaign. I'm able to run monthly budget variance reports and plan for the future with ease. 2) We've begun using Cube to help analyze profitablity by sales job. We've never had such easy access to this type of info in the past, so this is a benefit I can directly attribute to Cube. 3) We're beginning now to use an integration with our payroll software to work on headcount planning and payroll analysis.

It's a very comprehensive and plenty of features as compared to its competitors. I like how it shorten the time it takes to verify account details, monitor balances or create verification reports easily. I like how it makes the consumer permission process super simple and intuitive and makes them fast to data needed to provide service instantly.

Cons
Cube Planning, Inc
  • Limited to 8 top line dimensions. Although you can bring in as many attributes of data as you want, but I would really like Cube to increase top line dimensions to 10.
  • The ability for cross level interaction within multiples cube would be a major plus once implemented.

Alternatives Considered
Cube Planning, Inc
Cube was just a lot easier to use than Vena. We took some time to look at Vena as well and while their product was impressive, our organization was not yet there. We needed something we could implement quickly, and in today's day and age I think that is a very important quality to have. Start up and early stage companies do not have the luxury of implementation teams and massive IT resources so Cube was a huge help.

It allows our customers to grant Finicity authorisation and use of their account credentials to access their financial data. I like how it integrate Connect anywhere within our web or mobile apps using iFrame. Connect SDK resources for both web and mobile apps. Add more Security features to our clients data. The support is great for all our needs.
