Create strategy maps with BSC Designer

I would like to thank you for good product which made my job so easy. I think that this program is easy to work and very helpful to create Strategy Maps.

I especially like this program for the Strategy Map Editor. I improve my job by it. In my office we concern about HR Scorecard and I can use BSC Designer to operate with HR score. My thesis focuses on Strategic Management, and the program can make it so easy! After I’ve installed BSC designer Standard, I would like to say it is a very good program. Thank you again for introducing me to see the great BSC program.

BSC Designer is the perfect tool for KPI reporting and controlling according to the Balanced Scorecard method. Compared to the alternatives it offers a simply control, user friendly interface, graphically good looking reports that may be exported in the Excel or HTML, furthermore it’s possible in this program to organize own KPI in own categories and structure, including weight assignment very simply.

Customizable indicator for non-profit business

I downloaded BSC Designer on a trial basis to help me convince colleagues of the utility for our work of a Balanced Scorecard Approach. While I was only able to try the Light version, I found the combination of a graphical interface and customizable indicator and data entry forms very easy to adapt to and use. I like that there are overrides for nearly all of the functions so customizing for a non-profit (as I am doing) is not as hard as on other platforms I have seen. I think the software is useful for both experienced and new folks using a Balanced Scorecard approach.

Develop quantifiable indicators for chosen perspectives

I teach computer security and information assurance at a community college. As part of our program, I engage our students in free consulting projects with non-profit organizations, usually local governments in the area, with the objective of having the students conduct risk assessments and develop continuity/recovery plans. A major issue in preparing and presenting plans is clarifying the linkage between plans and action – answering the ‘what do we need to do to get this done’ question.

The BSC Designer tool is designed so that my students can quickly grasp the concepts of the BSC process, develop quantifiable indicators for their chosen perspectives. Going forward, our plan is to use the Professional version to develop strategy maps that will allow us to give our clients a roadmap on how to implement the recommendations, thereby increasing the value of the experience to both students and the local government.

I chose BSC Designer because of its ease of use, clear graphical interface, excellent customer support, and not least, its cost.

Track the performance and communicate results for clients

After a thorough and extensive process of selection and after seeing a lot of international and national providers for a Balanced Scorecard tool, we have decided for using BSC Designer PRO. We found it by chance and have been performing extensive trials and we have found a powerful yet easy to use tool that matches our requirements at an affordable price.

Is the only tool that we have seen that matches our needs at full. The dashboards are flexible, comprehensible and surprisingly friendly to use. The results graphics are useful and the HTML reports are great to track the performance of our organization and to communicate results for clients and stakeholders. In addition they have been really supportive and a great help in our testing period. We would gladly participate to help develop BSC Designer to a higher stage.

Thank you very much, it is a powerful tool that will help us to meet our goals.
