C. Bergmann KG
Three Questions for Christina Greifeneder
What was your starting point?
Before we rolled out Corporate Planner, we did all our reporting and budgeting in Excel and DCW. Preparing plan variants and forecasts took a long time and errors slipped in easily.
What are your highlights?
One highlight is the introduction of the web client, in which we can create and configure folders with different content for different recipients. Another highlight is how easy it is to prepare forecasts. There's also the flexible connection to various source systems.
What lessons have you learned?
The implementation of the software does involve a certain amount of time for training and building the structures, but ultimately provides you with completely new possibilities and freedoms when analysing and interpreting company data. And, thanks to the CP-Connectivity Express interface, it's easy to switch from one source system to another.
