Pigment wins when

Ask this in both demos
01Is Excel the primary working surface for your finance team, or are they ready to leave it behind?
Why it matters: Jedox's Excel add-in is the killer feature; Pigment expects users to leave Excel.
02Do you need true multidimensional cube depth (10+ dimensions, sparse data)?
Why it matters: Jedox's OLAP cube engine handles deeper sparsity than Pigment's newer architecture.
03Is GDPR/EU data residency a hard constraint?
Why it matters: Jedox has stronger EU hosting story; Pigment has both regions but is US-default.
