Overall Satisfaction with Apttus
My company uses X-Author throughout various departments. It is an excellent tool because it allows users to operate in Excel, an environment with which they are more familiar. Allowing the users to work in Excel while simultaneously updating records in Salesforce is a critical aspect of generating accurate data in reports.
As an engineer, I spend a majority of my day working in Excel managing lists, performing calculations, etc. I had limited knowledge of administrative tasks in maintaining the Salesforce org when my company first got this app, but was able to easily learn how to integrate my design spreadsheets with Salesforce and created complex X-Author apps. This application has greatly propelled our engineering / technical sales departments to the next level of efficiency!
