Are any of you using Corvu?

Hi,

I use corbusiness quite extensively. Epicor (uk) do provide training.
I have found corbusiness with the vbi quite intuitive. The VBi helps
alot as a lot of the base information/queries exist.

There is http://www.support.corvu.com/documentation/ which has
documentation. You will need a login and password, which epicor should
be able to supply.

There is a support web page here as well.

One word of warning , there is patches on this website. I wouldn't use
these patches unless they have been approved by epicor because,
rarely, they upset the VBI.

There are other corvu products which are available which don't get
bundled with the VBI which range from useful to high end performance
management.

It sounds like I am corvu salesperson! I haven't used Vantage V8 so it
maybe that some functionality exists in that. My understanding is the
V8 Vbi is largely the same and uses the same corbusiness version.

There is yahoo corvu user group which is useful but is moderated by
corvu so sometimes the messages take a long time to approve but I
believe membership does require approval.

I hope this helps.

I'm interested in looking at this program again but when I contacted
Corvu the only training materials they offer are on-site in Minneapolis.
No Manuals. No CBT's. No other options. Doesn't that seem strange?



Does anyone know of any reference material available by 3rd parties?

Are you refering to VBI or just Corvu as a base app.
Have it but not using it yet. There is a Manual out there for VBI, I
am holding it in my hand now. I also took a VBI Class at the
Rosemont, Il training office over the summer so I know they did offer
a class. Not sure if it is the training you are looking for though
they called it Inro to Vantage Business Intelligence.

We currently use this product and are very happy with it. Their are training manuals however, you have to attend one of the classes in order to receive the material. They are offered at the various training centers around the country through Epicor not just Minneapolis.

Yep, VBI using Corvu. They've got some great built-in stuff but I'm
still trying to figure it out. Yes, I can get a Manual IF I ATTEND A
CLASS. Maybe this is a waste of time and I should just uninstall it so I
don't keep trying to make it work every year and a half.
