00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:09.366
Now we'll move on to the Q&A portion of our webinar and I can see we do have time for a couple of questions before we need to wrap, so

2
00:00:09.367 --> 00:00:20.000
I think we'll start with one for Harjot. Why did Obero recommend CCH Tagetik as a solution that the Rockefeller Foundation should consider? 

2
00:00:20.001 --> 00:00:27.333
During the vendor selection process we met with the Rockefeller Foundation in the review of their current pain point with Clarity, 

3
00:00:27.333 --> 00:00:35.467
we also discuss their vision for a new solution and what requirements that need to be met as one as a new solution's going forward,

4
00:00:35.468 --> 00:00:44.834
there were many reasons why we thought CCH Tagetik was a good fit, first it was a solution we felt that the Rockefeller Foundation could maintain themselves 

5
00:00:44.835 --> 00:00:56.201
and not rely on consulting for each change or report that they needed to be built, we also felt that because CCH Tagetik had both an Excel and a Web interface, it allowed support for multiple browsers but it also allowed end users 

6
00:00:56.202 --> 00:01:05.568
the ability to use Excel and we find a lot of Finance users still like to be in Excel environment as well, so it gives end users the choice to be able to use the web interface 

7
00:01:05.569 --> 00:01:14.935
or the Excel interface, a performance of that application with CCH Tagetik is much faster than Clarity, so we found that one of the biggest pain point that they have with Clarity, 

8
00:01:14.936 --> 00:01:24.302
with CCH Tagetik has been resolved and lastly CCH Tagetik offers both the on-premise and cloud deployment option so we thought that this gives the Rockefeller Foundation 

9
00:01:24.303 --> 00:01:33.661
flexibility in terms of how they wanted deploy the application as well. These are some of the main reasons why we felt that CCH Tagetik was a good fit for the Rockefeller Foundation.

10
00:01:35.722 --> 00:01:42.895
Great, thank you for addressing that question. We got time for just one more and this one is for Irena.

11
00:01:42.896 --> 00:01:50.069
What would you consider to be a key component that contributed to a successful implementation?

12
00:01:51.701 --> 00:02:01.661
I'd say a few key successes of came out of our implementation, first is really taking the time to understand

13
00:02:01.662 --> 00:02:11.622
how your organization may have evolved and the impact that may have on a new CPM solution, I mentioned earlier in the webinar, communication 

14
00:02:11.623 --> 00:02:21.584
is a key requirement, is critical among amongst the entire implementation team, which here was our team, Obero and CCH Tagetik.

15
00:02:21.585 --> 00:02:31.545
I think the other main success is really, at the end of the day you get the buy-in from your end users, you have increased usage, the financial data is easy to access

16
00:02:31.546 --> 00:02:41.506
it is at least, from the perspective of being able to communicate the critical data for key decisions within the organization,

17
00:02:41.507 --> 00:02:51.468
is really what leads to a successful implementation. Irena I also thank you very much for your time and your

18
00:02:51.469 --> 00:03:01.429
