Easy to navigate and a very flexible FP&A platform. Iwas a power user / admin of an AdaptiveInsight instance and when transitioning to using Drivetrain, I found the transparency behind model logic, the similarity to excel, the ability to import any data structure into the platform, and the the structure of the model really ease to use the biggest highlights for this tool.
At first, the modeling logic at first seemed daughting to learn, but after spending a day learning about how to build models, it was easy to recreate complex financial models into the platform ranging from a hardware BOM cost model, cohort modeling for forecasting, ARR modeling, and opex driver based models.
The platform is very flexible and allows you to slice and dice data within the platform with ease. This allows me to adjust the model at fly quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Creating new data sets and mapping the data to new "lists" or mapping groups still requires someone on the backend in Drivetrain to link the data up. This means when building new models or data sets, you have to currently rely on your CS rep to help build the linkage.
They've mentioned this is a commonly requested feature and I hope they build this functionality out since it'll allow power users to build models quicker from new data sets Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Thank you for your feedback! We're pleased to hear you found our multidimensional modeling capabilities powerful, yet easy-to-use. We're also thrilled to hear that our report automation capabilities and data consolidation prowess stood out to you as some of the key highlights.
We hope the rollout of the self-serve data transformation tools have given you more flexibility and control over your data. Looking forward to your thoughts on both the Natural Language prompt and the SQL syntax features for creating advanced transformations. If you need any assistance, please reach out to me or your customer success manager.
We truly appreciate your feedback, and we're continually improving Drivetrain to make your experience more self-serve. Looking forward to continue serving you through this FY25 budgeting season!
