## Reviews

### "Flexible, Powerful FP\&A Platform Built Around Excel" — 4.0/5

> **Urvesh** | *1 March 2026* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The biggest strength of Datarails is its flexibility. Once you understand how the product works, it becomes incredibly powerful. It has enabled us to build a genuine single source of truth across CRM, finance, and HR systems.&#10;&#10;The Excel foundation has been a major advantage for us. Rather than forcing significant change management, we enhanced an environment the business already understands, adding automation, control, and governance.&#10;&#10;From an efficiency perspective alone, we’ve saved at least multiple days of rework per month, realistically close to one FTE’s worth of effort in a business of our size. But the bigger impact isn’t just time saved, it’s accuracy and insight. Having connected, structured data in one place has allowed us to generate insights we simply couldn’t before.&#10;&#10;Most importantly, it has accelerated the maturity of the business. Instead of spending weeks pulling together one-off reports, we now have readily available, consistent performance data driving conversations in real time. That shift has been transformational.
> 
> **Cons**: While the functionality is strong, dashboards are not the most user-friendly or dynamic compared to dedicated BI tools. That said, it is positioned as an Excel-based product, so this is partly expected.&#10;&#10;The AI features are still in their early stages and not yet as impactful as they could be.&#10;&#10;Board-level presentation output (e.g., pushing data into PowerPoint) could also be more developed and streamlined.
> 
> Overall, our experience has been very positive. The implementation team was excellent, we pushed the system quite far, and they were responsive and solution-oriented throughout.&#10;&#10;We are using Datarails beyond finance, it supports sales performance management, leading indicators, and commercial insight. For a growing business that wants automation and control without abandoning Excel, it has been a very strong fit.

### "Strong ERP integration, reporting flexibility and intuitiveness" — 5.0/5

> **alex** | *17 June 2026* | Automotive | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Strong report flexibility - Easy to customise and tailor reports to fulfil specific reporting requirements.
> 
> **Cons**: Often left questioning whether the information pulled through from the cloud data base is the most up-to-date. Sometimes frustrating when a specific period is being refreshed and all values are £Nil instead of previously refreshed data.
> 
> After getting some experience with the software and getting used to the custom formulas I found it effortless to integrate Datarails into our monthly / annual reports. Overall I have been pleasantly surprised with Datarails and its integration with our ERP system.

-----

### "Senior Director of Finance" — 4.0/5

> **Naomi** | *12 November 2025* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: refreshing data makes for easier month end. I like having all the actuals, budgets and year to date in one spreadsheet. Clicking one button
> 
> **Cons**: When formulas are not working - hard to understand how they broke or what happened.  Understanding how Datarails pulls information from the COA is not always easy.
> 
> Besides the Mac add-in issue, that caused budget delays and waiting on support to assist,  it has been good.

### "Customer Experience - Datarails" — 5.0/5

> **David** | *1 May 2026* | Construction | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Datarails is reliable and easy to use. It maintains our historical records and allows to report a single version of the truth.
> 
> **Cons**: We've had a few different people look after our account so I'd like to see a bit more continuity on that front. I understand the company is growing and opportunities for staff open up however I'd prefer not to be building up new working relationships every 6 months.
> 
> My experience is very positive. The onboarding process was well supported, any issue we encounter have always been rectified with the SLA. The people who I've dealt with have always been very knowledgeable.

### "DataRails is a great FP\&A tool for small to mid-sized companies\!" — 5.0/5

> **Carmelo** | *17 June 2026* | Food & Beverages | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Datarails has been a great tool to work with.  It is very easy to connect to our ERP data and is flexible in creating tables/mappings to customize our reporting within excel.  Our customer rep has also been very attentive and helpful.
> 
> **Cons**: The only downside would be some of the upfront work in terms integration and configuration, but everything works well once complete.
> 
> The overall experience has been great.  The implementation has been going smoothly, and we can now work independently on building reports.
