Overall Satisfaction with Vena

Vena Solutions is being used for budget and monthly analysis. My company is planning to broaden the range of the software globally for standardized budgeting.
  • Ability to connect to source data
  • Allows for quick analysis and internal development and enhancements of reports
  • Easy end-user interface with Excel functionality!
  • Internet access required to use the software but this is inevitable in our technological age.

  • My company is still in the pilot phase but we are beginning to see ROI especially with quicker monthly closing.
Vena Solutions is well suited for companies that rely heavily on Excel. By creating standardized input forms and reports the user can feel confident that the Excel connections are correct and can be trusted.

Furthermore, with different users, access data can be well protected or shared as needed.
