High price point, hard to justify the expense for smaller companies Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing so far! Everything is working the way I expected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it is intuitive, I understand how the data flows, and it speeds up our month end reporting and budgeting processes Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are some items that would be helpful if data rails could do

For example:

-Writing formulas in the data mapper: Why can't these be made to be consistent with excel formulas. It makes it hard to teach the whole team how to map in data when there are nuances like having two equal signs on an IF statement

- When using DR.GET formulas to pull data into workbooks, I wish there was the ability to exclude a certain field similar to the DR.Include parameter Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the dashboards, which help me see different financial statements quickly. The Excel add-in is also a feature I appreciate. Additionally, I find the connection to Claude really helpful, as it allows me to get numbers and projections out effectively. The setup process was pretty easy since we've had it set up before, so mapping and understanding the process was straightforward. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We're having troubles with the cloud connection disconnecting every once in a while. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Datarails does a great job of bridging the gap between MS Excel users and FP&A users. It builds on Excel’s strengths so end users can easily enter data, review it, and visualize financial information in a way that’s clear and easy to understand. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Dr.Get formulas can be a little tricky at times, depending on how detailed you need the information to be. But this is easy to overcome over time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Ease of use, access to information, ramp timing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’m new to the platform, but so far I don’t have any complaints. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The Excel integration is a big one for me it didn't force us to abandon the way we already work, it just made it better. Consolidating data from multiple sources used to eat up so much time, and now reporting feels a lot more manageable. The dashboards are also a nice touch when presenting to stakeholders. On top of that, the customer support has been amazing. Jodat in particular was fantastic incredibly patient and walked us through the entire process without making us feel rushed at any point.

Some of the widgets are a bit restrictive when it comes to formatting things like font size and style aren't always customizable the way you'd expect. The KPI widgets in particular can be frustrating to get looking consistent across a dashboard. It's not a dealbreaker, but for something client-facing or exec-level, those small visual details do matter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate the structure and logic built into the platform. In my opinion, this solution is excellent, especially considering that Netsuite is not the most user-friendly ERP when it comes to reporting. This tool has truly opened up new possibilities for visibility in reporting. What I like most is how easy it is to generate a Flash Report of the financials and how quickly we can dive into specific details. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are a few technical issues I've encountered. For instance, with some reports, certain rules only apply if we download the files and refresh them in Excel, or sometimes they need to be recalculated directly on the platform. This can make the process more time-consuming, as it requires additional validations. I also find it frustrating when more than two people are working on the same Excel file—it becomes nearly impossible to manage, especially when refreshing or submitting files. Another thing I don't like is having to constantly download files from Datarails, which results in multiple copies of the same file. I realize this might partly be my own fault, but it's something that bothers me because it makes it hard to keep track of different versions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
