Find out what your peers are saying about Anaplan, Oracle, Jedox and others in Business Performance Management."The solution works very well for budgeting."
"It's highly flexible. If you've got a complex environment with complex calculations, you can build that out. So that's a really good positive."
"I believe Anaplan is a new cloud tool, and from time to time, there's a lot of improvement that the Anaplan company deploys with the system. So, with that improvement, we need to really adapt and know the new system trends."
"Anaplan's strongest feature is that its GUI is very modern and user-friendly."
"Technical support has been good."
"Anaplan is a three-dimensional cloud platform that is good for analyzing data, visualization, integration, terrific for visibility."
"It's simple to use with a lot of functions."
"Anaplan integrates well into my clients' core systems. The ability to aggregate the forms within the dashboarding is also useful. Only one of my clients has implemented workflow. Their usage has been very light. Dashboarding capability is probably the biggest one. My clients like having the ability to aggregate, slice and dice, and dynamically adjust things in the dashboards."
"The user interface is very good."
"I have found there to be many features, such as manufacturing, accounting, financials, inventory, and purchasing."
"The most valuable feature in NetSuite ERP is the user interface."
"I am impressed with the product's ease of use. It also helps us reduce the techstack."
"NetSuite ERP is a user-friendly cloud-based solution that posts into the GL in real time. You can see your profitability at the order level."
"The inventory feature in NetSuite ERP is very valuable to me because it provides clear estimates about the depreciation of details and includes useful mobile modules."
"We use it for the projects we do in the telecom industry."
"We leverage the core platform but are able to add additional functionality for ease of use, tailored processes, and industry related reporting."
"Anaplan could be improved with a stronger consolidation module."
"It would be nice if the solution offered better extensions."
"Anaplan is a relatively expensive piece of software."
"Automation needs to be built into this solution."
"The price of the solution can improve."
"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."
"The negative is that the higher the flexibility, the higher is the complexity. That can act against you as a negative because it does require a model builder or a coder/developer."
"There are so many business rules to set up in the system that as a business user it's hard to gauge what they're doing and it's possible to get lost."
"In terms of the main improvement to NetSuite is the talent itself. It's grown so fast and there are about 25,000 companies running on it, and it's a relatively newer system compared to other competitors. It's growing so fast that the talent base in the partner organization (there's about 200 of them), is pretty thin."
"The product should improve its warehouse management solution."
"There is a lot of room for improvement. Multiple manufacturing features need to be updated on NetSuite. More functionalities need to be added. I think there are a lot of functionalities coming out for warehouse management systems and manufacturing automation via advanced manufacturing functionalities. I think they need to improve a little more on those aspects and make it easier on the scheduling aspect."
"The pricing is high."
"It would be great if they offered localization for Central America."
"The solution could be more stable."
"NetSuite is good for data management, but it's missing payroll features."
"Improvement-wise, it should be more customizable. Currently, you can't enhance the product yourself in terms of development for any applications unless you've got a very strong and big development team. Those are the skills that are in very short supply."
