What do you like best about Contruent Enterprise (formerly ARES PRISM)?

You can really tell that PRISM was designed by people who understand cost control and cost management.

Instead of receiving a monthly report from Excel, they are now able to access project data at all times and use it to make important decisions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Contruent Enterprise (formerly ARES PRISM) solving and how is that benefiting you?

The ability to quickly upload and download information is definitely one of its strengths. I've seen many systems that are enormously time consuming to use and input data.
