    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.

    Really incredible experience so far for the whole team to be honest. Some of the scenarios Lumenore is helpful with - You have a team with relatively few tech talents. This is a low-code platform so helps you out. - You have to extract data from various sources. - You need clean and simple dashboards for making key business decisions We couldn't have thought of any other platform coming in and helping us literally reimagine the way we do analytics and decision-making on top of it.

    Pros
    Excel4apps
    • 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
    Excel4apps
    • 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
    Excel4apps
    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.

    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.
