Cumbersome Spreadsheets
� Tired of spending all your time updating spreadsheets and / or trying to develop applications in MS Access?
� Have your XLS become too big and complex?
� Do you have “multi-sheet” spreadsheets that are "messy" and difficult to develop further, or to change when the underlying business requirement changes?
� Do you need multi-user, secured access?

Cumbersome Spreadsheets
� Are you concerned about the risk? For example, spreadsheet
errors that occur due to mistakes in formula copying?
� Do you want to apply the logic across multiple dimensions:
product groups, market sectors, business units, distribution
channels, etc. in a 2 dimensional XLS?
� Tired of waiting on your IT Department to get to your
projects?
