Take
Cartesis has released an update to the Analytics application in its performance management software, Cartesis 10. The software handles financial consolidation, planning and budgeting, forecasting, analysis and reporting. This latest version adds dashboards, scorecards and built-in Web- and Excel-based analysis capabilities. Cartesis 10 is designed to work with a company’s existing scorecard and dashboard systems and analytical applications, but it also offers finance organizations the option of having these facilities integrated as part of the full performance management suite. Ventana Research thinks the update provides existing users more robust capabilities than before and makes Analytics a more attractive option for companies looking at Cartesis 10 to handle their consolidation, closing, planning, forecasting and budgeting requirements.
