Useful and cost effective CPM Solution

What do you like best about the product?
I love the flexibility of the software, the OLAP functionality allows for me to slice and dice my data however I need. Prophix is my one stop shop for financial reporting, budgeting, forecasting and analysis. We also use Prophix for our financial consolidation, much of which is automated. We completely ignore the budgeting and reporting capabilities of our ERP as Prophix is a much better tool.

Prophix has a great user community, and they provide a mechanism to provide customer feedback - many of their new product ideas come right from the users. Their customer support team is very responsive, and are willing to do quite a bit of help without charging - this is very well received, as we have seen other software (like our ERP) charge for exploring issues in our system.
What do you dislike about the product?
When analysis needs to be performed at a very detailed level, we do not use Prophix, we use a standalone BI tool. We find that Prophix is best utilized with summarized data (by product, market, customer, etc.) not at the transaction level.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Financial Reporting, Budgeting and Forecasting, Financial Analysis, Financial Consolidation, and personnel planning are all done in Prophix. We have automated all of our financial reports in Prophix - we utilize automated distribution of all of our financial reports, and have automated much of our special reporting as well. Specifically, we have automated our product mix reporting, product variance reporting, pricing analysis in Prophix.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a great tool, use it's capabilities to challenge how you do things. Utilize the consultant's expertise to improve your processes as you implement.

What do you like best about the product?
I can design reports, templates, and adhoc with ease. Data entry and integration of materials is not overwhelming and is helpful to limit the amount of keying required by the user.
What do you dislike about the product?
Cube building can be cumbersome when you are trying to setup data structure. Resources for assistance in the cube building seem to be hard to get, unless you want to pay higher $ for consultant assistance and some of the assistant packages can not be used throughout your company by set to one user only.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Reporting automation and out of excel
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Don't be afraid to think outside the box and do more.

What do you like best about the product?
The flexibility of Prophix. Their solution is so much more than just a budget package. We are solving pressing business issues with Prophix. (and moving manual processes to automated processes!)

I do wish implementation would not take so much time. There has to be a quicker way to get up and running.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have used Prophix to replace manual solutions that took hours to do. We currently are working on replacing Power BI so that we have both live and historical data that we can look at. The next project that kicks off, next week, is related to customer utilization.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great choice!
