Find out what your peers are saying about Anaplan, Oracle, Jedox and others in Business Performance Management."It's real-time connected planning, so the calculations are pretty much seamless as far as your model is connected."
"Anaplan is a three-dimensional cloud platform that is good for analyzing data, visualization, integration, terrific for visibility."
"The solution scales well."
"You don't need to have a programming language to use Anaplan."
"I am impressed with the tool’s real-time calculations and intuitive interface. The tool’s user interface is the best compared to other software that I have worked with. I also find the tool’s management reporting feature valuable."
"The solution works very well for budgeting."
"Anaplan's most valuable features are that it's a no-coding platform, everything can be scaled to your other functions, and it's easy to learn and use (especially because Anaplan provides excellent interactive training)."
"This product has a very good modeling feature, and its graphical representation of visualizations has also been valuable."
"I like that it's stable."
"The most valuable feature of SAP Business One is the ability to manage your entire business with one software package."
"The relationship map is very useful for us."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is Financial Management."
"I like the monthly order management features."
"The ability to link documents to accounts, partners and events via the Golden/Yellow Arrow feature is very useful."
"We like it as it's easy to use, cost-effective, easy to deploy, and easy to get support for."
"Less complicated than other similar solutions."
"Automation needs to be built into this solution."
"The solution could improve by better dashboards and while entering the form loss and project implementation the ability to use graphical shapes more effectively."
"When there is a lot of data, it sometimes takes long to load."
"Anaplan is a relatively expensive piece of software."
"Anaplan's workflow component is probably the biggest area for improvement. I'd also like to see Anaplan add an ad hoc reporting tool that allows users to query things. It's going to factor into how you design your data set and your models, but I'd like the ability to create ad hoc queries against the data that's in there."
"Space and integration are a problem."
"The dashboard could be better. Because within a dashboard or report, you have to do a lot of scrolling. You need to scroll down because the table doesn't fit in a single view. That's why even the users aren't happy with that kind of user experience. They need to scroll to see all the data, and it could be better if it fits in just one page. That way, you can see everything. In the next release, I want automation that's connected to Anaplan. For example, to load master data from SAP to Anaplan. I don't know if this already exists, but a log where you can see the progress and see if there's an error will also help. It would be better to give you the error message, for example, if there is an error within the automated process importing to Anaplan."
"Anaplan should come up with flexible options to connect to a data warehouse rather than an Anaplan hub."
"SAP Business One could be improved if SAP creates one platform to integrate different solutions, particularly having a multi-company concept rather than having different databases. The solution could be similar to SAP S/4 Hana and the SAP Business ByDesign concept."
"More support can be provided on the web client end."
"The solution could improve by providing HR payroll, quality control, and maintenance. These are the missing features which we have to use add-ons solutions to provide the functionality."
"Lacks ability to integrate with other tools."
"The extension of dashboards into mobiles is something which SAP Business One has to improve on."
"Business One's production module has room for improvement."
"Overall, the integration and the reports can be better."
"SAP Business One would be a great product if more customization is available."
