The Vena team continues to roll out new features to enhance and improve the product. Vena support is always available to help troubleshoot bugs.
Vena has put data in our hands faster and more accurately than before, which allows us to make data-driven decisions and feel good about the support used to make them.
We did not evaluate any other products. We knew we wanted to embrace, not replace, excel, and Vena is best in class as a CPM tool that leverages Excel as a lens into the database.
