### "Great software to support strategy execution and tracking" — 5.0/5

> **Jackie** | *5 October 2021* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The software has an intuitive interface and helps ease the process of setting up the initial scorecard and strategy map as well as maintaining the information going forward. There is considerable flexibility to adapt it to your organization's vocabulary and planning model.
> 
> **Cons**: The hardest part of using the software was bringing new executive leaders up to speed on it after we had our initial workshops to get it in place. Not really a software issue, but more of a training and adoption issue. The ESM team was great about helping Ultivue bridge that gap.
> 
> It was great to work w/ the ESM team during the initial implementation where they were very effective at working with the executive leadership to capture and formulate specific details to build out the scorecard. Several workshops were held to get the team aligned and comfortable using ESM as the backdrop and means to review the progress on a monthly basis. I was also part of the admin training sessions and those were very informative and covered the necessary features to support the tool in-house.

### "software to increase the productivity of your team" — 4.0/5

> **Omar** | *27 June 2021* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The best thing about this software is that it allows you to create your KPIs from the same database that can enhance decision-making in your business.&#10;&#10;It can even be filled in real time to be able to make adjustments with your team of the strategy they are carrying out.&#10;&#10;additionally they can also see their progress so it becomes challenging and inventive
> 
> **Cons**: Having a systems team that can do the filling work in real time can make your job easier.&#10;&#10;in case you cannot have this, the tool becomes little useful because the information. shown will not be found on live
> 
> We used it as a test to try if an incentive strategy worked with our collaborators, however we decided to use other free software that offer us the same.
