I agree with all the usefule and interesting points you made about GP Analysis Cubes. We've been using them for months and the ease of access to varied information has been well received. I would like to point out, however, that the cubes do lack any reasonable path for customization, IE we would like to have access to multiple budgets/forecasts for a given fiscal year and that's not possible.
