Review on PaperTracer by Daniel Taylor
Papertracer is a great tool for creating PDFs. It's easy to use, and it works very well.
I used to work for another vendor before I found PaperTracer. The product itself is awesome, and it does exactly what it claims. But the UI was pretty horrible (and still is). You have to understand a lot of programming concepts to get anything useful done with it. I'm not a programmer, so that made me sad. In the end, I decided to move on to something else because I couldn't stand having to fight the interface every step of the way. And if you don't know how to program, it's even worse! But if you know how to code, you'll love it. It's a piece of cake!
Pros
- Very powerful, very easy to use and very quick
- It has many features that allow the analyst to do things that are normally impossible using traditional means.
- Has a simple but powerful UI
Cons
- Limited number of pre-built functions
- Cannot create own models or add custom variables to build new models
