Overall Satisfaction with BizNet Excel Suite

We use BizNet throughout the Accounting and Finance department for a variety of monthly financial reports, forecasting models, and ad-hoc analysis.
  • The ability to create custom reports (pulling data directly from our accounting system) to combine or consolidate data that our accounting system's canned reports can't easily provide.
  • Quick ad-hoc reports for information to see where we may want to do a more detailed report
  • There are templates available to get started, that can then be tweaked to meet the desired need.
  • On occasion, the refresh may be a little slower than I'd like, but that is probably my own impatience and the fact that our accounting server resides at a third-party site.
  • We're able to compare year over year and current year vs budget in a single report instead of multiple reports...i.e. more info in less reports.
Biznet allows real-time updating, as soon as a change is made in our general ledger we can refresh a report and see its impact. Cognos on the other hand updated overnight.
We're using BizInsight for the majority of our financial reporting to stakeholders and upper management, such as monthly income statements. We're also using it in forecasting, and our budgeting process.
