    These are traditional spreadsheet-based software packages. Any trouble you have with Excel you have with these, but that is eliminated with Quantrix. Quantrix is an Excel/Access like application, but so much better because of the things I've previously described in this review.

    R and a RDBS is less interactive. Time handling can be difficult. More for statistical purposes.

    We use Access and SQL-Server for Data-Handling. RDBS is not multidimensional. Multidimensional databases have a limited function set. Quantrix has both.

    Excel..think I beat this one to death already. Great for smaller datasets and simple analytical tasks, but difficult to compare to Quantrix when it comes to complex data modeling efficiently.

    Quantrix handles financial forecasting far better than Excel because of it's object-oriented nature. It allows you to build very complex formulas without making cell range mistakes.

    Pros
    Quantrix
    • Building complex financial planning model availing of a multidimensional data structure coupled with a powerful formula language, with the immediacy and intuitiveness typical of spreadsheets
    • Implement quickly model modifications (new products, new scenarios, new time periods) simply adding new "items" to "categories" (corresponding to dimensions in a multidimensional data model)
    • Scale up models to very large datasets with very fast computation times
    • Easily import data from text files, other Quantrix models and external databases via DataLink and DataNAV
    • Save snapshots of tables computed in Quantrix to external databases via DataPush

    Cons
    Quantrix
    • Hard to be critical of the Quantrix team as I know they strive to produce the best product possible. I suppose the next thing on my wish list would be the application of the new Solver functionality to be available in the Qloud.
    • A big help for new users would be a good book on transitioning from Excel or other environment into Quantrix. I know first hand it can be difficult to transition when having to learn the program through a help guide, forums and tech support. I had a lot of trial and error in my journey to producing the desired models. On one hand it was a valuable method as it taught me a lot of what not to do, but I will admit it was not the most efficient way to do things.
    • Would also love to see local user groups being formed at some point in the future. Quantrix puts on a fantastic conference once a year in beautiful Maine, but it is a big journey for someone in Southern California (and limited to one or two days a year). I would like to see some local chapters formed in different areas of the country so local Quantrix users can get together more often and collaborate (maybe a quarterly or semi-annual meetup?). Our Quantrix community is still relatively small and may be a difficult task for some areas, but is also the very reason why this would be great idea.

    For a newbie it can be difficult until you get the hang of the system. Quantrix is a very logical system, once you understand its underlying ideas.

    Return on Investment
    Quantrix
    • Capacity forecasting used to take hours to calculate with a ton of manual modifications. Quantrix has automated that so a model can be updated at any time with a click of a button
    • The accuracy of the models is incredible. It took some tweaking to add in data scubbers, but now it runs almost flawlessly
    • The confidence the management teams have in the output of the model is amazing. Before, people would question the output, have you rebuild it, and then compare. Now the report comes out and the output has high confidence.
