"Cube- a helpful tool for month end reporting"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Cube?

Cube displays information in a way that makes month-on-month comparison of data easy for the user. It allows for easy variance review at month end. Less time is spent pulling data and more time analysing it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cube?

Sometimes it can be slow for information loaded to the accounting system to be transferred into cube. This means last-minute changes made to financials are occasionally slow to flow through to Cube. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The simplicity of data fetching, able to format and display in your preferred way. And if data input set up correctly, you can truly rely on the data and quickly transpose for reporting needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cube?

The set-up of data integrations, mapping and configuration of source input files can be a little time consuming. However, it has definitely been worth now that it's all set-up. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Awesome product when it works."
3.5/5
What do you like best about Cube?

When it is performing at its best, Cube is truly excellent software. Our team has utilized it to streamline what we do and how we do it. The staff is courteous and professional and is always great to work with when we have needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cube?

The software has faced many issues and we have experienced prolonged load times and unknown errors that have caused many headaches. The support staff is great when this happens, and we almost always find a solution eventually. Still, it is frustrating when a simple process that has taken 10 minutes in the past takes two days to complete due to some underlying error. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Good so far, could be great with some additional capabilities!"
3.5/5
What do you like best about Cube?

What I like the best about Cube is that it allows our team to continue living in Excel or Google Sheets while still having a good way of consolidating the data in a centralized location that we can access. It also negates the need to have multiple workbooks linked together with links that can break and lead to inaccurate data. Additionally, there really is no native language or system learning that you need to do like most of the other companies in this field because you are just using Excel. This means when hiring/training a new hire or anything like that on Cube, they are basically up and running and contributing in no time because they don't have to waste time learning the ins and outs of the system and how you need to maintain it from the back end. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cube?

The biggest hurdle/downside I have encountered with Cube is pulling the bottom-level detail data down from the Cube. When you just want to pull higher level reports like an Income Statement summary or how revenue performed over the course of the year, then Cube is great. It pulls all of those high-level pieces perfectly and makes for effortless reporting. However, currently, there is no way to pull the bottom-level detail that makes up a specific number straight from Cube into an organized list. You can pull the high level numbers and then drill into them to get the detail, but that also gives you the data in a weird format and is not very digestible to budget owner consumers.

For example if I wanted to pull down the Sales software costs that we planned for the year by month with all of the specific vendors and attributes that make up the expenses in the software account, I cannot currently do that. It only allows me to pull the total Software account and then have to drill into the time period you want the data for and then would have to pivot the drill down to get in a readable format. This makes it difficult to pull down the data, then make quick changes and load back up to Cube. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Fantastic financial planning software for small/lean Finance teams"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Cube?

Cube does a great job of combining the flexibility of your existing excel/gsheets with the security and controls of a cloud-based enterprise software. Essentially, anything you can create in a spreadsheet is anything that Cube can store. No need to worry about different versions, version controls, issues auditing work, departments working on previous versions, etc. By storing your data in the cloud, you can maintain one source of truth and work with confidence. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Cube?

The main pain point with Cube is that you are restricted to row and file size limits that all spreadsheets have. If you are a rapidly growing company with a ton of customer and sales data (many rows), it might be a hindrance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Preston Lam of Cube

Hi Matt, Appreciate you taking the time to leave the thoughtful review. Being able to help your team move faster and more efficiently is wonderful to hear. Would love to learn about what the plans are for the future!
