Is Datarails similar to Cube?

Not really. Cube was founded by a CFO as a solution for finance. Cube is an end-to-end FP&A platform built from the ground up for strategic finance teams. Datarails was founded as a compliance solution retrofitted for finance, making it slower, less scalable, and less intuitive.

Does Cube work with Google Sheets? What about Macs?

Yes and yes. Cube works in Excel and Google Sheets, across Mac and PC. Your team can work wherever they’re comfortable without giving up performance or control.

Will I need consultants to manage Cube?

Not at all. Cube is self-service by design. You can evolve your data model, create new reports, and adjust scenarios without outside help or a high learning curve. 

How does pricing work? Are there limits on users or features?

Cube offers transparent pricing with unlimited users and full access to all features. Datarails charges per user and limits features based on your package. With Cube, everyone gets what they need. No surprises.

How does Cube handle security and compliance?

Cube is SOC 2 Type II compliant and enterprise-grade secure. Our infrastructure and protocols are designed to meet the needs of modern finance and IT teams.
