Overall Satisfaction with Prophix

Prophix is used as a management reporting, forecast and budgeting system, weekly and monthly estimate financial software to maximize time and efforts in a one house stop. We use a 3rd party consultant to help with big changes in our planning templates and any major problems, which has been a big win for us. The initial process set up can be time consuming. The quick report building features can be time saving and has allowed us to create report binders which are very beneficial.
  • Report Building
  • Report Binders
  • Security Manager
  • Process Manager can be tricky and has a learning curve
  • Planning templates can be a nuisance of setup and maintenance
  • Charting capabilities need to be improved in the software
  • Consolidated reporting
  • Efficient planning cycles, forecast and budget
  • Weekly estimates workflows are great
We still use excel for charting capabilities or one-off ad hoc reporting which sometimes Prophix is not great at. There are Prophix integrations with excel that you can use for Analyzer or Contributor, but our organization has not used them and they do not seem very straightforward after doing research into these features.
I was not apart of the Prophix selection process or the initial implementation. Prophix has been a good tool for us to expand upon and grow and innovate with all of our enhancements. I have not used any other tools like Prophix, but it does have a lot of good features and efficiencies which we optimize and able to save us time.

Prophix is great for setting up report binders that is very useful when sending out packets to different product groups and business units. The setup of a report binder and features of how it works is super easy and requires a click of a button or schedule to send out. This is crucial for us when it comes around to month-end closing or during quarter ends where financial reports provide good information.
