Access Vendor Portal to update and manage your profile.
Abacus Enterprise (the cloud based version) incorporates a strong customisable dashboard with great features to view and traverse your content. The Abacus Studio platform enables scripting and automation which allows for any number of use-cases to be developed if needed. Integration with Excel and spreadsheets is excellent and allows for easy round-tripping of content across spreadsheet based edits
The reporting is solid, enables us to pull together documentation that makes sense to senior leaders when putting forward pre-business case explorations or full business cases requiring sign off.
ABACUS is really flexible and amazing tool which can be fully customize meta models and reporting dashboards to maintain our organizational needs without much interference with vendor. Very good for data integration and seemless to integrate with Excel, Sharepoint and maintain realtime data.
The Abacus Server product has some very strong features that are still being ported to the Web Version - hence some features are not yet available in the web environment (however they share the same repository so they are complimentary) Reporting is not intuitive or feature-full, but scripting can provide easy and customisable outputs of data, and potentially their dashboards can be tailored to extract insights
its competing in a crowded market, lots of tools can now do similar tasks, and handle complex intergration and real time data analysis slightly easier/simpler. the interface can feel a little dated compared to similar products / tools
There are possibility to improve on localization and manual diagramming as those were 2 real challenges we faced. Our team required good amount of time to learn so that is also one of aspect to keep in mind while considering this.. There were some challenges on the road while doing data integration but again with proper knowledge it got resolved but took time overall.
