BDA Expert Roundtable

Our Mission

Too frequently, we receive feedback from companies with merely one or two OneStream Administrators expressing feelings of isolation or being “on an island.” Our Roundtable initiative addresses this issue by creating a community specifically tailored to their needs, linking them with vital resources and learning opportunities. At Black Diamond, we strongly believe in the principle that shared learning elevates everyone, and we’re committed to playing our part in advancing the collective knowledge and skills of OneStream worldwide.

Our Roundtable

This exclusive initiative allows participants to gather around a metaphorical table with OneStream Experts on a weekly basis, fostering an environment where questions can be asked, assistance can be sought, guidance can be obtained, and comprehensive training can be received.

Our Format

The BDA Expert Roundtable is the opportunity for OneStream Admins to engage in personalized one-on-one coaching sessions with a BDA Architect. This individualized approach ensures that the specific needs and challenges faced by each participant are addressed, allowing for a more tailored learning experience. Additionally, group training sessions offer a collaborative and interactive setting where participants can benefit from shared insights and collective problem-solving with fellow admins from other OneStream customers.

Our Roundtable Members

Only the best for our community! We’ve curated some of the most skilled functional and technical experts in the field. When you become part of the Roundtable, you gain access to over 100+ years of combined OneStream expertise.

“It has been great to be involved in the roundtables. It was amazing to hear different perspectives and best practices on OneStream tasks. The expertise and insights shared by your team were impressive and I left with a much deeper understanding on the topics that were discussed. One of my favorite things I learned was building cube views and dashboards. Hubbell utilizes these abilities in the system and the roundtable help me expand my knowledge and expertise on this area. I would recommend others joining these sessions as they will gain valuable knowledge that they can apply to their business and individual growth.”

Jeff Santos

OneStream Administrator, Hubbell Incorporated

"As OneStream Admins we are likely stubborn to a fault when trying to solve a problem – scouring the reference guide, community page, and Golfstream – when all we really need is that little extra push in the right direction from an experienced expert. The Roundtable is the place to go to fill in that last gap to finally solving your problem."

James Khoury

Director, Corporate FP&A, Nordson

"The Black Diamond roundtable is the perfect forum to get expert opinions on solutions for your OneStream application. It’s an open discussion for idea sharing, problem solving and hands-on experience amongst a wide range of OneStream administrators and experienced OneStream architects at BDA."

Ashley Randerson

Senior Finance Manager, Oshkosh

"The ability to request private 15-minute breakout sessions with a developer was particularly valuable, as it allowed for personalized discussions tailored to our company's specific needs. Hearing the community's questions and the issues others were experiencing provided a deeper understanding of common challenges and best practices."

Kit Tyrell

Director of Business Analytics & Reporting, Airlite Plastics

"Joining the BDA roundtable has been a great addition to the suite of services that Black Diamond offers. It allows one-on-one attention as well as pointed, relevant training for myself and my team. Day to day admin life often brings 'one off' questions that sometimes require a sounding board and the roundtable provides just that!"

Jennifer Zaliwski

Senior Manager Financial Systems, Dexko

"The roundtable has provided tangible quick insight to areas in OneStream that I was able to utilize right away. As our company's sole technical admin, each session provides additional insight to technical skills and various administrative areas. I can continue to expand my skill set. It helps bridge the gap between the various OneStream resources out there."

Jen Schaeffer

Corporate Consolidation Manager
Generac Power Systems, Inc.

"It is great to be a member of the community of peers and experts that you can relate to, who understand the challenges and common issues facing OneStream System Administrators and Controllers, to be able to ask questions and meet with Solution Architects - that's great value for your money!"

Alexander Ginga

Financial Systems Manager, Elevate Textiles

"I look forward to the Roundtable because it includes information tailored for administrators. I appreciate the ability to go into a breakout room and have one-on-one discussions with an expert - these discussions are great for troubleshooting issues or receiving guidance on how to approach enhancements."

Justin Riswold

Senior Finance Systems Analyst, POET

"My favorite thing about the Roundtable is having BDA OneStream experts sharing their know how. Additionally, I value being able to hear how different clients are using OneStream and hearing their insight on how they used OneStream to solve for a specific need."
