Scoreboard or QuickScore?
What’s the difference between Scoreboard and QuickScore? Very little! Where Quickscore has menu items related to the Balanced Scorecard, Scoreboard uses a generic business language. If you prefer the terms Perspective and Measure try QuickScore. If you prefer the terms Performance Area and KPI try Scoreboard.
KPI Software
If you are involved in management reporting, then you need a tool like Scoreboard. Scoreboard can help you link your Goals to your Business Objectives, KPIs and Initiatives. It also has a powerful dashboard and report functionality.

Create Stylish Dashboards
Dashboards can be created using any of the data you have added to the system. This includes the metrics from your scorecards, graphs, strategy maps and images. The drag and drop interface means your dashboards can be created in minutes. And don’t forget – they will be updated automatically whenever you update your scorecards – KPI software means no more PowerPoint!
Build Scorecards Easily
Build your scorecards quickly and easily with our intuitive interface. So you don’t have to worry about the structure, we will take care of that. All you have to do is get your data into the system.
We will even help you get started free of charge. Simply send us 10-30 metrics and we will build a small test system with a scorecard, dashboard and report so you can see your data in place.
Track Goals Over Time
All Key Performance Indicators and business objectives can be tracked over time with Scoreboard. Years of data can be viewed easily. Very old data can be archived at the touch of a button.
In addition, with Scoreboard, performance thresholds can be changed and tracked as well. Bear in mind business performance goals may not be the same today as they were yesterday.
Clarity of purpose – what you need and when you need it.
All of the screens presented in Scoreboard have one thing in mind – to give you what you want, when you need it. This clarity of purpose is the main aim of Scoreboard. No distractions, just the information you need to run your business.
Spreadsheet Styled Reports
If you prefer to work with numbers rather than dials and graphs then Scoreboard has a point-and-click report generator. You can build as many row and column reports as you like. These can be filtered to include or exclude all of the elements that make up your scorecard.
Powerful Search Facility
Free-form search will return all of the objects you are searching for. Objects can be tagged to enable group searches. You can get to the root of any problem by viewing underlying data, analysing metric trends, and reading other people’s comments.
Useful Alert Subscriptions
Stay informed with useful alert subscriptions. Formal reviews may only be held once a month or once a quarter, it is essential to be kept informed.
Set up alerts based on immediate triggers so you will never be surprised again. These can be scores going into the red or notes being added or a actual values moving outside a defined threshold

KPI Software and KPI Management
Scoreboard is aimed at organisations that use their own or a generic strategy methodology. Scoreboard is the world’s acclaimed KPI Manager as well. Scoreboard makes it easy for you to set up a Scorecard so you do not have to concern yourself with structure or terminology.
If you would prefer to use a KPI or scorecard manager that does uses the Balanced Scorecard methodology, then our Balanced Scorecard product, QuickScore might be a better fit for your organisation. QuickScore uses the balanced scorecard performance language. For example where QuickScore would use the term Perspective to describe a group of objectives, Scoreboard would would use the term Key Performance Area. Apart from the differences in terminology, both applications are exactly the same.
Whereas we believe the Balanced Scorecard methodology has great strengths, we recognise that many organisations have been grappling with strategy for decades and have created their own methodologies. These methodologies may provide competitive advantage so we have provided Scoreboard as a neutral business performance manager. This will allow you to concentrate on strategy rather than the tool.
