IBM Business partner
Since 2012, Finvision has been an IBM business partner. Over the years, we have guided around twenty clients in the implementation of IBM Controller and continue to support them in setting up consolidation processes or in running these together within Controller. This ensures an efficient, transparent, and accurate consolidation cycle.
Most clients use a set of standard reports developed by Finvision in Planning Analytics. When required, we also provide advanced custom reporting, fully tailored to their needs.
In addition, Controller outputs can be integrated into BI reporting, strengthening the link between consolidation and management reporting.
We also offer flexible hosting options. Through the Finvision Cloud Platform, we can provide a fully managed IBM Controller environment without the need for local installation, including hosting and maintenance. Alternatively, we support clients who prefer to run IBM Controller via IBM Cloud using their own licenses, depending on their setup and preferences.
