Likelihood to Recommend

Adaptive Insights is definitely appropriate when generating any sort of financial reporting. Perhaps you have to generate a report about clients expenditures over the last two years, then Adaptive would be suited for that. You can set the categories specifically and narrow data down significantly. Adaptive would not be as appropriate for smaller-scale tasks, but can still be used for it. The user just won't get as much from it.
