    For a mid size company it is a perfect tool like IT application companies but if companies having large Data like Banks it is less appropriate

    We have to calculate most all Lab / Pilot / Proposals sizing and results. The automated calculations in [Excel4apps] is awesome, as once you are familiar with them, it is easy to quickly implement them when needed.

    • Easy to install and maintain. After the initial installation, there is little involvement by the technical administrators.
    • Cloning production to a test environment does not require any additional setups unlike Oracle EBS which does.
    • Loading data and reporting on this data is handled via EXCEL spreadsheets which is the "language" of our financial users.

    Cons
    Devart
    • It has room for improvement in terms of security and making it possible for large organizations like us to use it in a more secure way with integrating with our in-house security systems.
    • Pricing could be reduced further for it to be adopted world-wide.
    • it isn't foolproof. Excel has no means of checking for human error during data entry, which means that the wrong information can skew all the results - sometimes severe.
    • Users unfamiliar with Excel syntax may also find entering calculations and calling up other functions a bit frustrating until they get a solid understanding.

    • It is possible but difficult to retrieve data or set criteria from different module into a single report or retrieve. If it is more user friendly instead of having to create a complex formula to retrieve the data, this function will be utilized more often.
    • It will be nice to have visual (graphs, etc.) report template available
    • It is helpful if we can retrieve data for a range of date, instead of just YTD, PTD etc. and multi-year data all at once for comparison too.

    Usability
    Devart
    It automated the whole reporting and excel. Our team can generate pivot, dashboards and multiple other reports in various formats and update them with one click. My Sales team need to update more then 1500 leads status on daily basis. By using this tool now they can do this in few minutes.

    I am not a power user of Excel. So I find Exel4apps a friendlier version of the things that I could do on Excel and making it easier with a magic wand.

    Alternatives Considered
    Devart
    Microsoft Excel is the most used tool in the software universe. As such, asking Microsoft Excel to be the tool used post data acquisition makes a ton of sense. Almost everyone we hire has some idea on how to use this tool, which decreases the time spend training new employees.

    Excel4apps is more user friendly and can retrieve data much easier and in a nicer format than Jaspersoft. Qlik Sense is useful and have more visual reporting and dashboard. However, it is usually used for higher level of analyses and review. Yardi is used for specific purpose, which is different than Excel4apps. Excel4apps can pull all the financial data from Oracle, including billing and collections.

    Return on Investment
    Devart
    • It had a positive ROI as we used it on its strengths. We could save time and make some of our processes simpler.
    • It does help us up to a certain limit - but it acts as a part of our general IT infrastructure. It cannot solve our direct business objectives.
    • It cannot be expanded in all directions as we need a lot more native coding and IT infrastructure.
