At Vivid We Believe
The founders of Vivid Reports didn’t set out to reinvent financial reporting. They set out to simplify it.
In 1999, James Briscoe and his team saw the same problem everywhere: finance teams buried in spreadsheets, juggling consolidations, and patching together reports—yet no one was leaving Excel. So they built a solution that embraced Excel, not replaced it—bringing structure, speed, and control to what finance teams were already using.
Today, that same principle powers everything we do. We believe that simplifying financial reporting isn’t just about saving time—it’s about giving finance the agility to lead. With Vivid, companies gain clearer insight, stronger business alignment, and reporting systems that adapt as they grow.
We make Excel-based financial reporting fast, reliable, and fully owned by finance—so teams spend less time fixing numbers and more time moving the business forward. Vivid: Automate, Consolidate, and Simplify Financial Reporting without leaving Excel.
Financial reporting complexity should be made simple
When tools are easy to use, teams move faster, users feel more confident, and mistakes happen less often.
Responsive support should always be in reach
Our company is designed with one priority: experts are there when customers need us.
Simplifying reporting and budgeting makes change more achievable
When reporting and budgeting are easier, teams get time back to focus on what matters—and make meaningful change.
CFOs need to future‑proof financial operations.
New ERPs, new entities, new staff—you can’t plan for it all. But your reporting system should be built to adapt.
Customer Success Story
Prairie South School Division
Georgia’s team manages $84 million across 38 schools.
Reporting was slow and fragile—pulling data from NAV, copying into Excel, hoping nothing would break. It wore people down. Every fix was manual. Every issue landed back on finance.
They didn’t overhaul their systems or rebuild their reports—they spent two days learning Vivid.
Copying and pasting stopped. Reports ran clean. Staff got what they needed on their own. Answers came faster. The noise dropped. And Georgia’s team finally had time to focus—on supporting schools, not fixing spreadsheets.

Great Software Isn’t Enough. You Need a Team That Has Your Back
Vivid’s Support Stands Out — and the Data Proves It.
There’s a simple way to measure what it feels like to work with a vendor: after every interaction, ask yourself—was it easy to get my issue handled?
That’s what the Customer Effort Score (CES) asks. It’s a tougher test than measuring satisfaction because it penalizes friction anywhere in the process—waiting, repeating, or being passed around. Vivid scores 6.97 out of 7—well above benchmarks. In plain terms, customers tell us: every interaction feels easy.
