Getting the most out of data 'NOW' !!
Beoordeeld op 11-8-2021
Our number one benefit was saving time and delivering information to our Salesforce. Prior to PHOCAS every need for information came as a request to our I.T. department. With a limited staff keeping our systems updated and available was a major time consumer ... leaving very little time to develop the report or query request that constantly came into the department. After Implementing PHOCAS the number of request went down mon th by month as the Salesforce started using PHOCAs and getting their information without having to wait on the I.T. staff to produce it.
Pluspunten
Deliver what was promised. Ease of implementation, Ease of training, Ease of Customer service.
Price point sealed the deal.
Minpunten
As we looked at several products we found that most of them had the same look and feel. Most wanted a high front end implementation cost along with a 2 year commitment. Phocas was willing to do a 'Install, try and buy' approach.... nothing to lose but some system admin time working with Phocas to setup the environment to prove it worked. So with that said ... our only 'con' comment is ... we wish we had implemented sooner.

Phocas is a fantastic tool!
Beoordeeld op 10-8-2021
I do a lot of reporting in my role with the company, not only internal but external to our vendors and also customers.
I am able to provide real time reports via Phocas. This has been where I most have appreciated the software. I used to have to email all my reports which would take countless hours week after week. WIth Phocas, setting up a link takes a few minutes on the front end but then it's done and you can easily share with many.
I have been able to dig into our data and provide analysis that I would have not been able to do otherwise.
Pluspunten
I love the flexibility within Phocas and the ease with which you can customize reporting to fit so many different areas of business. I especially am thankful for the links that you can provide to non-users to share reporting outside of your company. Phocas makes my job so much easier and gives me the power to provide quick and useful reports.
Minpunten
Until I discovered the online videos and trainings, I was not able to use the software to the fullest! I highly recommend when the software is introduced to a new user, that they watch some of the 101 level trainings to learn all that can be done.

Marketing Review 8/2021
Beoordeeld op 17-8-2021
Overall, I am genuinely happy with Phocas. I'm the kind of person who gets excited about report customization and flexibility within the way we structure our data.
Pluspunten
I love the customization of creating reports. Our users enjoy the independence of creating their own reports and the flexibility they have with customizing the structure of any data pulled.
Minpunten
We have a partner login within our license, and support for this add-on isn't yet where it needs to be in order to foster growth in this area.

Comprehensive Reporting & Business Building Tool
Beoordeeld op 10-10-2019
My overall experience with Phocas has been excellent, we use the system to monitor growing and declining sales to protect out business and easily identify buying gaps to help increase sales.
Pluspunten
Ease of use, speed of reporting and level of detail available that can be accessed. Automated reporting saves a lot of time. Support from the account managers when required is excellent.
Minpunten
Sometimes some of the functionality could be improved further to allow more flexibility. An example here would be multiple options for subscriptions i.e. a weekly report that you could also set to receive at monthend without the need to create a new favourite. Nest function is a fantastic addition to the functionality but due to the way Phocas works you have to start at the bottom layer of data then build layers above.

Cost effective Management Information
Beoordeeld op 31-10-2019
This replaced "hand crafted" Excel and VBA sheets over a 10 day period to the consumer , we then developed Phocas to suit our needs and one drop of data updates all users with all views in 1 day.
Pluspunten
Ease of use , ability to develop our own customised views , one change updates all consumers of the views , scalable - we can add more data and create relationships to enrich existing views to the consumer , Enable better decision making data in dashboard views allowing the consumer to pic and choose what is important today .
We have never looked back - we chose Phocas in 2013 to feed our front end business with tailor made views of data to enable swift decision making - we developed our support team to self create views from data feed through to data visualisation - this replaced our Excel and VBA sheets that were people hungry to produce - now we simply load our data periodically and the consumer can a see "all they want to see when they want to see it "
Minpunten
Understanding how the background of the product , as we decided from day one that we would be self sufficient in all our development needs and not many businesses had taken this approach with Phocas at that time.

Great , Impactful Software
Beoordeeld op 29-7-2021
overall I am very satisfied with this program and I highly recommend it to my clientele.
Pluspunten
Ever Since the team has implemented Phocas,
I have been able to track my sales progress and been able to keep up with my goals and successes.
this program also allows me to have my track record available and see where I need improvement and have a clear written history in terms of graphs and charts as to what has been done in the past, and present.
Minpunten
the only problem I have with this problem is that sometimes , the program freezes, lags and does not upload the data from the day prior.

BI software that let's me do it the way I want to do it.
Beoordeeld op 9-10-2019
Being able to run reports in minutes instead of hours has saved me so much time. It helps me work more efficiently.
Pluspunten
What I most like about Phocas is I can get to the information I need by how I think about it. While someone else in my company can get to the same exact information in a totally different manner. The great thing is we get to the same exact information.
Minpunten
The thing I like least is the inability to print nice looking dashboards. We have sales meetings and the managers want to print each salesmen's information from a master dashboard. This way it can be handed out to each person so they can see their information as it is talked about generally in the meeting.

Hindsight is 20/20, Phocas brings it to your Dashboard!
Beoordeeld op 2-8-2021
From day one, the support we have felt from our primary internal advocate has allowed us to venture further and deeper into the expanse of Phocas. I am taking this individual's deliverables as a testimony to the support being shared by the Phocas Team.
Pluspunten
The apparently limitless possibilities. With our custom insulation solutions business, our metrics and analytics are unique, and Phocas has kept up, nay, surpassed our demands!
Minpunten
There is not a con to the software, the con comes with my time being able to dig in and leverage all of the cool factors.
My analogy: my car has many special cool features, but most of the time, I simply get in it and drive.
Need to stop, read the manual, and truly put it (and expect excellent performance) to the test!

Its been nicer to have all the information shown in 1 spot in a easy to read format, still has some areas that could be developed more and make it clearer to navigate through all the information available.
Pluspunten
The charts and graphs are easy to read and understand
Minpunten
Its hard to navigate drilling down into the sub category's to sort information.

Excellent Business Intelligence
Beoordeeld op 8-10-2019
Managing a sales force performance is key and the data provided by Phocas allows quick and easy benchmarking. There is also a superb level of output for the sales force to use to be better account managers and category champions.
Pluspunten
The ability to dive into category data, and split by customers, customers groups, date ranges, sales rep, is excellent.
Also the ability to present customers purchasing data to them via matrix reports and charts is very impressive.
Minpunten
Writing custom reports is a great feature but can be tricky if you don’t do it very often.

Our experience over 16 years of Phocas usage
Beoordeeld op 8-10-2019
Pluspunten
We have been a user of Phocas since 2003 and it has proved to be the single most useful piece of software we have ever used. We have our staff, customers and suppliers accessing the system, it is that good. Our suppliers prefer to use Phocas to their own in house systems and our customers say they have never seen anything as good. Without Phocas we would seriously struggle to know what is going on in our business.
Minpunten
There is nothing we don't really like...

Phocas - Best Data Investigation Tool I've Seen
Beoordeeld op 5-8-2021
I love Phocas and would recommend it to businesses. Especially if you're a small or mid-sized business without a fully fleshed out data department.
Pluspunten
Phocas makes it very easy to get data out in front of people. Users don't have to be super smart with data, however if they are at least mildly smart with data then it isn't just an easy solution to get data in front of them but then becomes incredibly powerful. Users will feel empowered to be able to dig into anything from high level sales to individual transactions.
Minpunten
The visualizations on Dashboards is lacking and could be improved. Also if you have some incredibly complex calculations then sometimes the way to implement that in Phocas isn't super straightforward.

Phocas BI
Beoordeeld op 10-10-2019
We are an Electrical Distributor. We use Phocas in every facet of our business to pull data about sales, inventory, products.
Pluspunten
Easy to use and understand. Logical thought processes to pull your data.
Minpunten
When using the Nesting feature you have to be right on the "Drag here" in order to have your other dimension stick. Sometimes you must try three or four times before it holds.

Pluspunten
All information I need for sales, prospects easily available.
Updates every day
Minpunten
Nothing really. All works pretty easily for the info I need

Pluspunten
building dashboards is easy, building reports (favorites) is easy.
Minpunten
The data. Just like any other reporting software. If you don't have a good structured dataset (source files) then it makes it harder. That's not a bad thing about THIS software, though ;)

The first place I turn to find answers
Beoordeeld op 31-3-2015
Pluspunten
Phocas is like Legos. With a little creativity, you can build almost anything you'll ever need to find and solve problems with stats. Simple but consistent and powerful.
Minpunten
The product always gives quick, accurate results; however, the support team does not. We get very custom with how we use the BI, and it feels like high-end users know more about the product than the advocates. It takes time to get details worked out on new databases, and we have been skipped over for upgrades in the past.

Beoordeeld op 4-8-2021
Outstanding and user friendly
Pluspunten
The ability to view our sales data in a easily consumed and manipulated form is invaluable.
Minpunten
The only unpleasant aspects about the software is certain data can only be accessed if provided from a third party agency. In this particular situation, you aren't dealing with Phocas' excellent service team and might have to wait longer periods of time to get what you want.
