Connect all your business and finance systems to Drivetrain seamlessly
Drivetrain offers 200+ out-of-the-box connectors and a flexible approach to integrations that can combine data from any system to make it useful and accessible.
Bring all your KPIs effortlessly from any system into the platform to build a single source of truth all your stakeholders can trust.
Build multi-dimensional interconnected models with ease
Drivetrain empowers finance teams to build powerful models without any limitations.
With Cube, in case you need more than 8 dimensions for reporting or planning you would need to purchase and build multiple individual "Cubes" such as "Finance Cube" and "HR Cube". And, transferring data between these cubes is complex, hindering your ability to easily build interconnected models for headcount planning, vendor expense forecasting, etc.
Generate valuable insights quickly
Modeling in Drivetrain helps you understand what's driving your results at a granular level with the ability to easily look at your data in any dimension, including territories, segments, or products.
Also, you can drill down from summary to transaction data to perform root cause analysis to identify the exact cause of variances.
Built to support fast-growing companies
Cube might be a reasonable choice for small businesses looking for a plug-and-play solution. However, fast-growing companies need a more scalable option.
Because Cube is built on top of Excel, any limitation of Excel will inherently be a limitation in Cube.
Drivetrain has its own powerful data processing and calculation engine, which means the platform can support your increasing volumes of data and process complex workloads without any performance issues.
