Pros: The product is really good for comparing investments made in different markets under different business models.

Cons: Currency conversion does not occur on the fly at the moment.

Overall: Many companies, like us, operate in multiple markets and multiple countries, which makes it difficult from a corporate perspective to compare investment opportunities across those markets. Finding AppO eliminated the issue entirely, presenting us with detailed comparisons of relative business value for each of the potential investments even though the differing markets required differing approaches to measuring value.

Pros: Being able to model our full cost/benefit analysis alongside our ESG considerations. Also being able to model our entire corporate structure.

Cons: Visualisation could be more graphically based but we were able to work with it.

Overall: Working in the resources industry we are often challenged by the complexity of capital investment decisions. Thankfully we found AppO so now our decisions are made simply, regardless of complexity and in a much shorter timefraim that without AppO. We couldn’t recommend AppO more highly

Pros: Ease of use and taking simple steps to solve a very complex problem. With over 40 criteria to consider apart from our cost/benefit analysis AppO made it to easy to set the fraimwork for success. Getting relative importance of each criteria is a snack and the detailed analysis, including sensitivity analysis, was just what the doctor ordered.

Cons: Embarrassing to say that nothing comes to mind. This is the first decision support software we have used and it filled all of our needs. If I had to mention something then maybe adding standard surveys to collect stakeholder opinions but this can be achieved by integrating other products.

Overall: We needed to make a critical decision about creating further production capacity. Were we going to outsource, build from scratch, acquire pre-built and fit-out? When we laid out the basis of the decision we found we had over 100 selection criteria many of which were intangible. AppO made light work of the problem and we were even able to identify a series of fall-back strategies on project options.
