"Great turn-key solution for a data warehouse and Power BI"

5/5

What do you like best about Acterys?

Quick and relatively affordable solution to a data warehouse integrated with could financials and Power BI without requiring specialist knowledge of either platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Acterys?

To develop additional/more advanced reporting models requires some knowledge of Power BI. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Acterys solving and how is that benefiting you?

We tried a number of integrated reporting products over 12 months but none could handle our reporting requirements of multiple tracking categories and multiple entities. A data warehouse with Power BI visualisations would be the solution but such an IT project would cost $$$. Came across Acterys whose ready-to-go data warehouse integrated with Xero plus pre-built reporting templates is an awesome solution. Up & running in minutes and forms a great base to build on which we are now doing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"All Your Planning and Budgeting Needs Brought to Power BI"

5/5

What do you like best about Acterys?

Acterys has been relentless in their efforts to deliver a full-featured development flow for achieving complex planning/budgeting needs within Power BI. The fact that Acterys write-back features are API based provides customers an easy way to get started, achieve scale, and provide data modeling features that may be too costly to achieve without their solution.

Recommendations to others considering Acterys:

Of all the planning tools built within Power BI - look no further! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Acterys solving and how is that benefiting you?

Planning, forecasting, and budgeting capabilities that are not the strong suit of Power BI. Bringing these workflows directly into an enterprise BI tool has delivered efficiency and time savings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Acterys?
