Significant Risks - High Degree of Customisation & Major Performance Issues

1.0
May 12, 2025
Not fit for purpose as enterprise consolidation & planning system. Beware, the end product is a long way away from what's sold in pre-sales. Board as an application is a 'toolkit' as opposed to a 'template' offered by other solutions. Whilst this flexibility can be seen as a strength, it requires almost complete customisation which puts significant pressure on the quality of the implementation team to come up with solutions as opposed to following tried and tested best practice and introduces a major risk and disastrous consequences when implemented poorly. The pre-sales team significantly oversold the capabilities of the application - ensure you speak to multiple customers of similar size to your organisation prior to signing a contract. Multiple modules sold as one application but in fact disconnected modules with no pre-configured integration between them. Consolidation times of >90 minutes for a single period. Would not recommend under any circumstances.

    Board is a powerful tool, although it requires a lot of knowledge. Thanks to its flexibility, Board can be used for almost all use cases, from workflow control and S&OP planning to extensive FP&A applications.

    Great tool, that allows for a smooth and flexible planing process and is well suited for ad-hoc analysis. It takes some time and effort to learn how the system works but it is very much worth it. The back-end and development is quite intuitive but takes some practice.
