00:00:10.285 --> 00:00:17.797
We do have three major divisions and they all have different disparate

2
00:00:17.798 --> 00:00:27.310
systems so we were able to use a software like CCH Tagetik to consolidate them up and bring that sort of reporting into one

3
00:00:27.311 --> 00:00:36.824
place so you're just getting one point of truth. We were actually before on Hyperion Enterprise

4
00:00:36.825 --> 00:00:46.337
and then when we went looking for a replacement for that system we ended up with CCH Tagetik, obviously being able to easily load 

5
00:00:46.338 --> 00:00:55.851
from different disparate GL systems and use the data entry forms to load data as well allows us to

6
00:00:55.852 --> 00:01:05.364
quickly and easily get the data in the database and then we can move on and start a report. The number one reason that we went with CCH Tagetik

7
00:01:05.365 --> 00:01:14.878
was that everything was combined in one database, number two I think is the customer service that CCH Tagetik has offered, it has been very

8
00:01:14.879 --> 00:01:24.391
very helpful, the web-based application to allow remote users to easily connect and use a system which was not 

9
00:01:24.392 --> 00:01:33.904
something that we had with Hyperion Enterprise. Our best look scenario is basically taking, combining our actuals and the 

10
00:01:33.905 --> 00:01:43.418
most current forecast for plan and building up a scenario instead of doing a forecast every month like a rolling forecast. It was taking me

11
00:01:43.419 --> 00:01:52.931
minimum 2 days, sometimes 3 days to complete it once we had all the financials done for the book, we're able to

12
00:01:52.932 --> 00:02:02.445
build using the tools within CCH Tagetik to bring that 2 to 3 days down to 15 minutes, that's saved an enormous amount of time.

13
00:02:02.446 --> 00:02:11.958
I'm quite happy with that, another beauty thing is that we can run it as we go through the month, so the business units are done 

14
00:02:11.959 --> 00:02:21.472
earlier than we are from the whole company, so they can run it at day 2 or day 3 and they'll have their best look already for them

15
00:02:21.473 --> 00:02:30.985
and they don't have to wait till day 5 when I'm running it. I would recommend CCH Tagetik to other companies, we felt it was a good product, a solid product

16
00:02:30.986 --> 00:02:35.484
and we're happy with our acquisition.
