Cost Savings – The key driver
• It is possible to improve performance and reliability AND cut cost at the same time
• It has already been done
• A major European bank has replaced Power Plus Pro with RealtimeXL
• Those users who did not use Power Plus Pro’s Financial functions were immediately converted to RealtimeXL. Ultimately 3500 users in 23 locations.
• Monthly savings of up to 65% were achieved and the resulting spreadsheets worked faster and more reliably
