The jobs

Each one is a different purchase.

Datarails

A planning and reporting platform that keeps Excel at the front and connects it to a central database for consolidation and reporting. You buy it through their sales process.

Cube

A planning platform that connects spreadsheets to a central data model. You buy it through their sales process.

Excel on SharePoint

What most FP&A teams run today. SharePoint keeps unnamed copies of each file. It does not keep who changed which assumption, or why.

OperatorIQ

An Excel add-in for FP&A teams in any industry. It keeps the named record of the team's models and versions, and adds an analyst in Excel that checks its own work. Listed on Microsoft AppSource; access opens from the waitlist.

Every OperatorIQ cell says Live or Coming. Where we do not know how another product handles something, the cell says to ask them. This is not a scored bake-off, and this page publishes no accuracy figure.
