Chart Insights extends the important details contained within dashboards, and analyzes the complete dataset behind the dashboard, automatically surfacing the data relationships not obvious in dashboard visualizations alone. It then provides a summary of key performance metrics found buried within Prophix charts.  It also summarizes the important insights in plain English.

Higher Ed Prophix

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Prophix was implemented to assist with financial reporting and budgeting. We currently use it specifically for pushing out reports to our budget managers as well as collecting their OpEx budget requests for our budget. We also use a revenue planning model and a personnel planning module. It helped address the human error of working strictly in excel.

Pros

  • Robust financial reporting
  • Ease of use/mimicking excel for formulas
  • CSP is clutch when we have questions

Cons

  • Moving us around in our pods for CSP is frustrating
  • Implementation needs to make sure to pair team with knowledge of industry, seems like Higher Ed is a struggle
  • Cater this conference to not just decision makers in the room. Some of us are the users/super users and want more hands on sessions

Return on Investment

  • Faster year end audit workbook prep
  • Streamlined budget process
  • Eliminate a lot of human error

Prophix Review.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Furmano’s currently uses Prophix as a centralized repository for actual financial results, forecasts, and budgets, as well as a platform for building comparative analytics and preparing financial statements. The system supports the company’s need to develop presentations, analyses, and reporting for both internal leadership and external stakeholders. Our primary use case is within the finance function, where the platform is used to organize and consolidate financial data across multiple reporting needs. At present, however, the team primarily uses Prophix for data management and extraction. Data is frequently exported into Microsoft Excel and Microsoft PowerPoint for additional manipulation, reporting, and presentation development. One of the key opportunities for improvement is additional user training and adoption. Our finance team would benefit from a deeper understanding of the platform’s full capabilities so we can better utilize Prophix as a true single source of truth and integrated reporting solution, rather than relying heavily on downstream manual reporting processes.

Pros

  • Financial Statement modeling.
  • Budgeting
  • Comparative analysis.

Cons

  • Provide preexisting templates that can be modified rather than build from scratch.
  • Provide more hands-on training for beginner and advanced users.

Return on Investment

  • Standardized reporting.
  • Efficient way to aggregate data.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Prophix for financial reporting, budgeting, and job cost tracking. Prophix provides much more flexible report building and presentation than our ERP. The product is extremely flexible and we are looking to increase our usage of it for a variety of different financial initiatives within our organization.

Pros

  • Pulling data from our ERP into excel like templates that streamlines processes such as job forecasting
  • Centralized budgeting that gives organizations financial leaders one version of the truth
  • Workflow visibility that allows managers to track progress on items such as financial reconciliations that require multiple people to perform tasks to complete such reconciliations

Cons

  • Current AI copilot in FPA plus is useful but could do things better such as creating templates or completing specific tasks (agentic features). However, in fairness, these features do not perform well across most AI platforms (such as Microsoft's regular Co-pilot AI

Return on Investment

  • Streamlining our budget process has been a nice ROI. Look forward to how FPA+ further streamlines the process in the initial budget cycle after the upgrade

Usability
