> **Dawn** | *14 March 2025* | Banking | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: There are some great out of the box reports, but also the support that was given to help develop specific reports that were needed for my companies was fantastic. Cosmos helped so much in building the reports and showing me how to create reports as well. Reports are clear and easy to run.

> **Cons**: It was a confusing at first when learning how to create reports, but some of that is probably because we needed specific reporting that is not normally how people set up their financial reports
> 
> Cosmos was very responsive to any help we needed and especially with creating very specific reporting that my company needed. I am looking forward to working  with them to create more specific reports.  I would recommend Cosmos
