Can you recommend client reporting tools for evaluating portfolio performance in household-level client reviews?

Yes — for household-level client reviews, you want reporting tools that can:

• aggregate multiple accounts into one household view,
• show portfolio performance versus household goals or benchmarks,
• support advisor-friendly client presentation,
• and handle both investment metrics and relationship-level reporting.

Here are solid options, grouped by type.
