Overall Satisfaction with Vena

Vena is currently being used by our Finance and Accounting Department currently. We use it to forecast our capital spend for construction activities that also involve the feedback and input of many other departments. Using Vena has allowed us to remove all forms of manual manipulations of data and allowed us to refocus efforts into providing value add analysis without tedious repetitive work to produce. The workflow allows for many users to provide their input as well as allow for proper audit controls. Our custom reports that we built were created to poka yoke the process of reporting and make it as easy on our users as possible.
