Hi, my name is Ed. I'm based in the UK for a company called Global Switch,

and I am an FP&A solutions analyst.

We're sort of across the mix of real estate and data centers.

So we operate a bunch of different

sites across the world.

We aren't a traditional data center operator. We sort of manage a building.

We build it, we manage it, and then people bring in their own hardware into the

rooms, et cetera. I think like most companies, it's probably that everything is

done in Excel. Version management, these massive complex models that

link different spreadsheets. Sometimes the links break.

If you want to create a new document, you've got to relink all the other existing

files. It's just very time-consuming.

Definitely the month-end process is a lot cleaner.

The amount of information we can track across is much bigger.

That's a huge benefit to the business. Presentations, we've used those a lot.

I've used a lot of different software, and it's the only one that

really does presentations in the way Board does.

Because it's all really having the ability to do the analysis and say, "I'm going to

click around in this chart." But quite often when you're talking to

a CFO on a monthly basis or a

director,

they just want the thing presented to them, and here's the challenge, here's

the variance, or here's the indicator.

So having a same template every month that someone doesn't have to create, it's

just bang, bang, bang. There's all the reports, and it's done.
