    OnRamp is great for medium or large size companies that need to organize information in a way that is easily accessible. It is not great for small companies who don't have a lot of customers.

    It is a shared environment from which multiple team can work on multiple versions for development or testing purpose. User jut have to share a link and other can start working on it. This is very useful when multiple team are working on different user simultaneously. It has a very simple interface

    OnRamp is much easier to use then Financial Edge with its user-friendly interface. Financial Edge seems dated and is much more complicated when running reports.
