For accountants and finance professionals, Excel has traditionally been the preferred software for data collection, financial modelling, analysis, and reporting. Its user-friendly interface and familiar grid layout have made it indispensable across the globe. However, as data models grow more complex and the need for consolidated analysis increases, Excel’s limitations become more evident, and the need for reliable enterprise reporting software more apparent.
Excel’s limitations, such as its inability to create interactive dashboards and its lack of robust data security, make it challenging for users to rely on it for complex tasks. Additionally, Excel was not designed to function as a database, which often leads users to push its capabilities beyond their intended scope.
Recently, the integration of Python into Excel, thanks to a collaboration between Microsoft and Anaconda, has introduced new capabilities. While this integration is promising, it requires accountants to learn Python, a new programming language, to fully leverage its potential. Additionally, Python calculations rely on the Microsoft Azure Cloud environment, adding another layer of complexity and dependence.
To overcome these challenges, leading software solutions provider Infinitus Reporting offers the Finnivo enterprise reporting software, providing a more effective and secure solution.
