Pros and cons

They are always positive and eager to help in any way. They take the time to create short training videos for specific questions and the responsiveness is amazing.
The application has saved our team many hours of manual exporting and manipulation of data. The Cosmos team has been super responsive and true partner to our business.
I am very impressed with the professionalism of the Cosmos team. Their commitment to customer success is clear.
We haven't yet encountered any disappointments or elements that we think don't work well.

Best Option for Our BC Cloud Reporting, Hands Down

Reviewed 6 months ago

We can finally get financial and other reports out of Business Central! Actually easier than it was with NAV. Made reporting so much faster. The team at Cosmos is extremely helpful too, I've had nothing but good service. They respond to all my questions very quickly.

Pros

The speed reports run is much, much faster than other options we've tried or the other reporting products that have been out there for awhile, especially now that we went from NAV to Business Central cloud. It was also nice that the Cosmos team was able to install and set up pretty quick (in under an hour or so), and the included reports actually run against the database without having to do anything....

Cons

It would nice to be able to connect to other source instead of just Business Central, but I've heard that feature/capability is coming down the road. Glad we have this set up and can take full advantage when released.

Great reporting software and support team

Reviewed 6 months ago
Pros

Cosmos seamlessly integrated with our ERP system and offered reporting capabilities far beyond what our last reporting software was able to produce. The Cosmos team was extremely helpful in getting us up and running quickly with all of the reports we needed so we didn't miss a beat.

Cons

There is a little more of a learning curve to building reports in Cosmos than I expected. However, they do offer a lot of really helpful training videos online and they are also always happy to help and respond quickly when you have questions.

Finally, a lightning fast report writer for Business Central

Reviewed 6 months ago

Dealing with Cosmos is very easy, they are focused on customer satisfaction so very helpful, fast on the responses, and the product works in the cloud.

Pros

It's fast, the setup takes minutes and the direct integration into PowerBI is the icing on the cake.

Cons

There is nothing I do not like about the product, there is always new features but have not run tiny anything I can't do yet.

The Future of Reporting for BC in the Cloud

Reviewed 6 months ago

Cosmos is a much needed solution for reporting from BC in the cloud. Other existing solutions are slow and clunky. The team that's building the product is dedicated to creating an industry leading tool and they are making constant improvements with a lot of attention paid to the user experience and feedback.

Pros

Cosmos is super easy to provision on a BC tenant. No software to install and data is pulled automatically and set up in both Excel online and the desktop app.

Cons

The only con is that the product is still new and they developers are working on additional features that will improve the experience, but I have full confidence that those features will meet/exceed the needs of the users and will be delivered very soon.

Great reporting tool

Reviewed 5 months ago
Pros

Comsos is very easy to use and generate some awesome reports.There are many instructional videos prerecorded on the website that is a great resource for any questions that may come up. They are also very fast at responding to any questions when contacted. If you have some basic Excel skills this software is for you.

Cons

Would be nice to be able to schedule report runs. After speaking with the team at Cosmos it sounds like this will be a feature in the future.

Cosmos Review

Reviewed 6 months ago

We've had a very positive experience with the Cosmos. The application has saved our team many hours of manual exporting and manipulation of data. The Cosmos team has been super responsive and true partner to our business!

Pros

Speed, speed, speed! The ability to see comprehensive business metrics in seconds has been a tremendous upgrade for our company.

Cons

Our database data is pulled through to Cosmos once a day. A potential opportunity for improvement would be to increase the run frequency of these data pulls. We do have the ability to pull the data by clicking a button if we can't wait for the nightly refresh.

Great Reporting Tool for use with BC!

Reviewed 6 months ago

Honestly, the support and ease of working with the Cosmos team. They are always positive and eager to help in any way. They take the time to create short training videos for specific questions and the responsiveness is amazing!

Pros

The ability to run reports in excel and utilize all excel functionality on top of it. The reports run VERY fast compared to other excel based reporting tools (Jet).

Cons

There are only a few things, but most are already in the works for updates next year. The main function to update the data source could be quicker, but at least the function to schedule multiple updates will be great and many of our clients usually want/need this option.

Wonderful Product

Reviewed 6 months ago

So far this is an excellent product that provides reports with a touch of a button!

Pros

Cosmos is very user friendly and has an amazing Customer Service team that goes above and beyond to make the product fit your business needs. Their turn around on deliverables is unmatched and their training videos are extremely detailed!

Cons

Would be helpful if the pipeline could be refreshed automatically by the hour for real time data without having to run it manually. Would also like auto filling for the filters to prevent errors.

Cosmos is reporting built for Business Central

Reviewed 6 months ago
Pros

Finally, a fully cloud reporting solution built specifically for Business Central. Having everything built off the Microsoft stack made it very quick to get users up and running with Cosmos and the report performance is excellent. The integrations with Business Central really put it a notch above other reporting tools.

Cons

Right now Cosmos can only connect to Business Central. We're very excited for the coming functionality to connect to additional systems.

We found the product to be easy to use and very comprehensive. I was able to write reports on my own which is something I'd struggled with in the past leveraging other solutions.

Cons

There isn't anything I don't like, but there are a few pieces of functionality releasing soon that I'm excited to have at my disposal.

Impressed with the capability and service provided

Reviewed 5 months ago

Our overall experience with Cosmos has been exceptional. Their team has been quick to respond to questions, provide direction, and help in every aspect in our adoption. The training videos are awesome, and on several occassions their team created a custom video just for us, showing us how to create the report with the data needed.

Pros

Comos has made reporting for Microsoft Business Central (BC) much easier and user friendly than the native BC reports. We are able to create and customize our own reports and have the data available in a format we can use. The flexiblity and power of Cosmos has exceeded expectations in our early evalulation and adoption of the product.

Cons

The learning curve has been a little steeper than anticipated, but we also haven't put in enough time with the product to fully underestand the mechanics. I expect once we are able to dedicate more time to the product the functionality and process will become more familar and we'll get over the learning curve.
