Simplicity. If you use Excel you'll be ok Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some limitations in functionality but very few and largely from inefficiencies on the data side of our ERP. Has caused some good rework of our account and dimension structures to get the reporting right. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Very useful but has its quirks"
4/5
What do you like best about Solver?

Solver has helped us completely transform our budgeting process. Once we understood how report and input forms are created and managed it has pretty much allowed us to see the information we need to see quickly and gave us the ability to share those reports with those who need them the most. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Solver?

It definitely has its quirks. If we are using two different input forms and they are not programmed to save in the exact same way we end up with a lot of duplicated data. Lesson learned on our end. Also, when working with Solver employees to help us figure out why a form isn't working the way we think it should be, they are not always the most responsive.

"Solver Experience"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Solver?

Ease of report customization, Excel based reports.

Integration setup is simple to modify when adding/modifying accounts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Solver?

When having to print to distribute I would like to stack my reports and send to PDF in a packet instead of having to save each individually.

I would like data updated to run faster or have live data link.

Delay in support from our BC partner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"New to Solver and looking forward to continuing to learn it's full capabilities"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Solver?

There is a lot of customization. We have an incredibily difficult report that has routinely been created manually. The Solver team has worked hard to integrate our ERP system with Solver to customize and create this report automatically. This is a significant enhancement for us and improves efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Solver?

The implementation process has been very slow. The work has been challenging, but we have been paying for a tool that we have not been able to fully use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Game-Changer for my Work Efficiency"
5/5
What do you like best about Solver?

I love the data warehouse functionality coupled with the ease of use of the Excel interface. I was already proficient in Excel so I didn't need to learn a whole new program to build reports with the data we have in Solver. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Solver?

The initial setup was rocky for us becuase the Solver pros didn't understand our data and how we use it, and we didn't initially understand the ins-and-outs of how Solver is set up. Now that we understand the program we are making changes to set it up the best way for us but it is more difficult to make those changes after the fact. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
