"The software has been created to support CFOs in today's complex organizations that need to empower the management of financial processes and compliances (i.e. budgeting, planning, closing, consolidation, reporting, SOX, IFRS) through advanced reporting and analysis, (i.e. power pivoting), Communication, and Collaboration tools (i.e. SharePoint Server). Companies as a whole can quickly understand the total financial impact of key strategic decisions, easily communicate with increasingly large and international teams - sharing documents, activities, calendars, and deadlines - as well as run multiple 'what-if' scenarios and assess their impact on business performance. And, ultimately, the Tagetik and Microsoft solution improves communication and decision-making among major business functions within a unified, controlled environment while reducing implementation time and leveraging existing investment for a lower total cost of ownership," concluded Vellutini.
