Recommendation from an early Vena adopter
We deployed Vena in 2020 as an ERP extension to our legacy system. Vena empowered sales metrics on the front end, financial project management in the middle, and financial reporting at the job level on the back end. We deployed a second "cube" data warehouse after the initial launch for financial reporting. Each deployment has worked as prescribed and brought extraordinary value to our construction company.
PROSVena has delivered huge value for us in a flexible package that can grow with our business effectively and efficiently. Vena let us keep our existing financial system and our customer Excel quoting apps. And built a reporting system on the back of Excel which everyone already knows. The road to value was fairly straightforward for us.
CONSVena is a toolbox of powerful opportunities. It is not an out-of-the-box accounting system. So you have to know exactly what you want out of Vena before deploying it. But this is true of any data warehouse. Knowing how data is to be extracted and presented requires upfront commitment and execution. Time spent in the planning phase will pay off 10X in the execution phase.

Vena provides flexibility to set up budgets, reports and other processes as flexibly as we need.
We were able to streamline and centrally collect data for our budgeting process, which save considerable time for the budget administrator and other admin assistants across our university. We created Board-level reporting templates that can be re-used every year to report the results of the budget process with only changes made as necessary for the format of the current reporting year. We collect forecasting information from over 330 departments and compile all the information within one template to estimate the financial outcome for the fiscal year. We have been able to include data in planning of various kinds in ways that we weren't able to by just using Excel, resulting in better planning results. We can create new planning or reporting processes and have the flexibility to save additional data input that isn't part of our ERP data. Overall, we have saved time, improved processes, created one version of the data visible to all involved in the process and created efficiencies by being able to share data across processes.
PROSFlexibility to set up whatever process we are working on the way it needs to be set up for our business requirements. Continual improvements being done on the Vena add-in and browser administration interface. Formatting Excel templates and reports exactly as needed. Ability to pull in data from all data versions for any reporting or template. Ability to save non-financial data to use in reporting or calculations. Ability to control user input as needed to better quality data. Prompt customer service responses. Great implementation team. Administrative control over data visible to individual users. Workflows to show status for process steps and email notifications when a workflow step is ready for input or review. Once learned, allows for creation of new processes to collect or report data.
CONSHaving to download each Excel file, but once downloaded, it's easy to select the data we want to see.

Cloud Based Excel Software
At ANet we completely re-modelled our reporting and we saved man power and time byinstalling vena.
PROSVena is a plug in for Excel, so the basic functionality for excel is all there. You don't need to learn a new software.
CONSIntegration can be improved. Sometimes integrations are complicated. It is not user friendly for Mac users.

Best Accounting Software
After using the Vena Software now I can say it's the best accounting software where we can reconcile ending balances. Now we can easily identify discrepancies or time differences between the bank statement and financial records. With a centralized database, we can easily collect all the data from different departments and generate a collective report about company progress. That's why I totally recommended this software to all my corporate friends.
PROSAfter using the Vena software now I can say that now I can take up my financial decision more effectively. with the help of this software, we can generate a report through with we get better financial insights. Now we can do data aggregation department-wise. With Vena Software my focus is financial planning or analysis through its various features like bank reconciliation, General ledger, and many more. It's very user-friendly with an interactive dashboard and collaboration management.
CONSNothing, I like each and every feature of Vena Accounting software offers features such as data consolidation, workflow automation, scenario modeling, and interactive dashboards which help me in taking the future decision after keeping in mind the current situation of our company. We can now collaborate with our stakeholders to access and review different scenarios.
