It does a great job of creating graphs and reports. Price was $5,600 last Oct.

You download performance files like any other (multi-member) file. Are you familiar with using QDBC for Excel?

Or do you need to know how to interpret performance files? Or something else…?

Performance data files aren’t exactly well suited for processing with Excel, but it can be done. I’d suggest that there are better ways of creating charts from those files though.
