    My favorite part is using if for analytical review reports, especially budget to actual reviews. I can make changes to the GL based on issues found during the review and the report updates immediately without having to update, re-key, verify changes, etc. I know it is going to be updated and correct every time.

    I've created a number of daisy chain notebooks for different workflows, and every time, I create my workflows with other users in mind. Jupiter Notebook makes it very easy for me to outline my thought process in as granular a way as I want without using innumerable small. inline comments.

    Pros
    Insightsoftware, Inc
    • Once a worksheet has been created, you can change a single cell and update the entire report. This makes it much easier than recreating a report every time you start.
    • It draws data directly from our database that can be filtered down in various ways. This allows us to get the data that we really need quicker.

    • Simple and elegant code writing ability. Easier to understand the code that way.
    • The ability to see the output after each step.
    • The ability to use ton of library functions in Python.
    • Easy-user friendly interface.

    Cons
    Insightsoftware, Inc
    • Access to comprehensive training for new users is lacking. While the pay-based BizNet University has some useful videos it doesn't allow for other learning styles.
    • Having to create a separate OCBC data source and linked server for each arm of business opened is sometimes a hassle.

    • Need more Hotkeys for creating a beautiful notebook. Sometimes we need to download other plugins which messes [with] its default settings.
    • Not as powerful as IDE, which sometimes makes [the] job difficult and allows duplicate code as it get confusing when the number of lines increases. Need a feature where [an] error comes if duplicate code is found or [if a] developer tries the same function name.

    Lack of communication from BizNet on new policies with the resellers, changes in the policies that affect the client aren't positive in my opinion

    Jupyter is highly simplistic. It took me about 5 mins to install and create my first "hello world" without having to look for help. The UI has minimalist options and is quite intuitive for anyone to become a pro in no time. The lightweight nature makes it even more likeable.

    We went pretty seamlessly into BizNet, but could have had lots of trouble if the professional service was not aware of our set up and use.

    FRX - Great Plains Report Writer - These do produce financial reports but are much more tedious to set up. BizNet is much more flexible and easier to use. The functionality is an Excel add-on which allows us to use the powerful functionality of Excel as well as Biznet's functionality to do data retrieval from Sage 100 general ledger.

    With Jupyter Notebook besides doing data analysis and performing complex visualizations you can also write machine learning algorithms with a long list of libraries that it supports. You can make better predictions, observations etc. with it which can help you achieve better business decisions and save cost to the company. It stacks up better as we know Python is more widely used than R in the industry and can be learnt easily. Unlike PyCharm jupyter notebooks can be used to make documentations and exported in a variety of formats.

    Return on Investment
    Insightsoftware, Inc
    • BizNet continues to pay for itself.
    • I am sure we haven't even learned to use half of what it is capable of and their customer service is top notch.
    • I would say that BizNet continues to have a positive impact on our entire financial portion of our business.

    • Positive impact: flexible implementation on any OS, for many common software languages
    • Positive impact: straightforward duplication for adaptation of workflows for other projects
    • Negative impact: sometimes encourages pigeonholing of data science work into notebooks versus extending code capability into software integration
