Allows considerable flexibility to drill down. Very user-friendly and similar to Excel, our team felt comfortable using Limelight right away.

"I frankly always feel skittish when I approach Excel. I have to double and triple-check what I am doing. But when I am in Limelight, I have far more confidence in what I am doing. I just do it once and I know that it's right."

With Limelight, we now can forecast 18 months in the future. The platform has saved us over $400,000 by correcting broken formulas we were previously unaware of and eliminating hundreds of hours on manually collecting, consolidating, and reviewing spreadsheets.
