Offers flexibility in design and saves time in budgeting and forecasting processes
I find Board to be simple and easy to use. It offers significant flexibility in designing solutions. The system overall is very useful, with many capabilities that provide flexibility. Our budgeting and forecasting processes support around three hundred twenty users who would otherwise rely on Excel, making Board invaluable for saving time.

Great reporting and customizations with good reliability
A lot of the improvement is not so much the product as it is how it's deployed; it's about mapping against what you need to improve your processes, whether it's the Kofax kind of shows in the IDP. You've got process orchestration, extraction and robotic process automation, process orchestration, and then mobile. Tracking what you need out of those, either all five together or one of those separated out, is usually what's more critical. They do add capabilities to the tool. However, from our perspective as a consulting organization, the real key is whether you are getting the data you need to improve your process or if your reporting is not providing you with the desired information you need to improve your processes. If there's any negative, it's just the different names, the branding names that the product's gone through. It's confusing.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Support from BOARD is fantastic; always returning with solutions for both server and application questions."
"A lot of flexibility from the data modeling standpoint. It can add specific line items into our budget, for example, or if we want to make changes to the data model itself, we have that flexibility."
"It has helped us manage our workflow."
"The drill down is good for people who have that high level view, because they can do some analysis based on it."
"The support from the BOARD team and their consultants is great. Whenever I use technical support, they are good."
"The ROI is great."
"It is easy to make quick updates. As the business changes, we can maintain the tool without programming help from IT."
"It is useful for self-analysis regarding company data and helps to find areas where we can improve."
"It provides the ability to design applications directly."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"The solution is easy to manage, very easy to scan and archive documents, and after digitizing it is very easy to reach archived documents."
"The designer and workspace tools in Kofax Insight are good, providing the ability to design applications directly and read various types of PDF images, handwritten files and cheques, transferring the data from these images into the database and making it accessible on mobile and computer devices."
"You can easily customize reporting to pull the fields that interest you."
"Based on my experience, it's been a very, very good product, a very powerful insight analytics or business KPI-type tool that provides a very good data-based review of intelligent document processing and allows clients to develop their own reliable, customized reports."
 

Cons

"I would like to see better relationships with the partners."
"Again, it's very powerful, but there is also a big learning curve. It should be a little more intuitive."
"One thing that I personally would like to see is additional visualization tools for visuals."
"In terms of scalability, I would say that there are some limitations in the solution. It cannot handle data that is too big."
"I would like an eLearning platform for BOARD."
"Initially we did have issues with the BOARD crashing, but at that time I was fairly new."
"The initial setup was very complex for us."
"Data import error messages can be improved to provide more information on why a record failed to get imported."
"The reporting and internal integration systems could be improved by making them more user-friendly."
"The initial setup is complex and would be difficult to carry out without any training."
"The solution is not cheap. It is a bit pricey, and therefore more suited towards larger companies."
"If there's any negative, it's just the different names, the branding names that the product's gone through. It's confusing."
"It would be ideal if there were some standard forms that could be customized."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's price is a bit high compared to other solutions."
"It is not the cheapest product on earth, but you get so much. It provides good value for money."
"Find a partner who will take responsibility for the implementation, and be available for support."
"The solution is quite expensive, if it is made cheaper then we can have more clients. I rate it four out of ten."
"​In terms of the pricing, it was reasonable. BOARD is not the lowest in the market, but it was reasonable for us."
