EASIEST TO USE
Excel is the user interface - easy, familiar, intuitive. It's where analysis, data entry and what-if's take place, and where reports are viewed. Only it's better than raw Excel. Models are personalized and protected with security down to the cell level.  Updates are made live to corporate cubes and tables. Consolidation and allocations are instantaneous. No links. No macros.

EASIEST TO DEPLOY
The secret lies in our patent pending Spreadsheet Automation Server - the heart, soul and brains of A3 Modeling - which unifies the entire Corporate Performance Management feature set of A3 Modeling including Input Models, Reports, Dashboards, Real-time Consolitation, Ad-hoc Analysis, Workflow, Security... everything. With just spreadsheet and cube design skills, configure and maintain your  own solutions with a fraction of the professional consulting and programming of traditional solutions.

LOWEST TOTAL COST TO OWN AND MAINTAIN
Easiest to use? Easiest to deploy? Lowest cost to own! For many of the same reasons that A3 Modeling is easier to use and deploy - unified codebase, single point of maintenance of security, data source connections, and metadata, reduced consulting, no programming - it is also much lower total cost to own and maintain.
