IDU-Concept vs. Questa AI

Income Statements per cost centre (actual vs budget) that has been mapped to meet my business requirements. The ability to drill-down to the GL level in each cost centre when reviewing Income Statements. The ability to group Income Statements per region for ease of reporting. The Budget module that offers flexibility and automatic calculations based on inputs make budgeting easier.

The reason for my rating is mainly due to the fact that the super user administering the layout, mapping, groupings, period control and period displayed (actual vs budget) needs to be fairly certain of what they are doing in order to make the changes in the admin module. They also need to be confident of the effect of the changes made to display correctly on the client module. Regarding usability on the client module, its very easy to use and understand once you play around the layouts etc.
