Case Study: Hines cuts reporting time by nearly 1/3 with Spreadsheet Server

Real Estate Investment Firm Cut Reporting Time by Nearly 1/3 with Spreadsheet Server

Hines, a real estate investment firm, needed a better way to access applicable data and reduce its heavy reliance on IT for creating and editing reports. To address these reporting challenges, Hines turned to Spreadsheet Server, a reporting tool designed for traditional Excel users working with Oracle JD Edwards.

Using Spreadsheet Server and its QueryDesigner functionality for Financials/GL, Hines evaluated other tools before choosing the solution and then streamlined reporting across the organization. With Spreadsheet Server, Hines freed up as much as 25% of IT support and cut its previous reporting process time by up to 30%, making reporting much easier for business users.
