What Cosmic Frog Customers are Saying
“Building apps is significantly easier in Cosmic Frog than with other solutions, and also faster and simpler to learn and use. I was able to quickly build a Cosmic Frog for Excel app for a client that enables business users to run scenarios and own the results, which frees up the modelers to create new models and use cases.”

“Cosmic Frog for Excel apps are a great way to bring Optilogic’s suite of tools to a broader audience. Now users can interact with the platform without having to log in to the webpage or learn to navigate the UI. This makes it great for less technical users, who are familiar with Excel and don’t really need to know how everything works under the hood.”
