It's not that expensive compared to the vast majority of other products. But it's not cheap, it's somewhere in the middle. I would rate the cost five out of ten.

So long as Anaplan fits your requirements, it's quite affordable. It's a value-for-money product and a very reasonable price compared to competitors like SAP or IBM. There are multiple pricing models, and you only need the costlier license if you use the model builder.

This is an expensive product and if the price were reduced then it would attract more customers.

The is a cost per user and also costs related to the implementation itself. I'd like the product to have more transparency in terms of the pricing and the licensing model. I don't know how to check the date of the licensing and when it will expire. It would be great if there was some feature on the Anaplan site that people could check. I can check, for example, the GBs used, and yet I can't check the license status. I've raised so many emails in regards to needing to know when the license will be expiring, however, I still don't get any response.

Anaplan sell their licenses on a storage basis, which they call a bucket.

The license is a yearly subscription. There are three licensing tiers: the model builder, planner, and the reporting. The reporting is the cheapest. Model builder is the costliest one. Depending on the type of license you buy, you get more spaces to work on. There are some additional costs to the standard licensing fees. For example, we go with the extended workspace ISIS. For that, they charge for model optimization if you are below the premium customer level, so we were having more licenses. We are in the premium level, but if you are below premium, they charge for your model optimization, or they charge you if they want to investigate something on the licenses.

This is a yearly subscription. So a customer initially buys a workspace and specifies how much GB they want. The minimum starts at around 30 GB. You can buy multiple workspaces. Anaplan sets a limit on the size of the model. Say that you pay for 130 GB and you want to increase this to 560 or 700 GB, you have to buy a separate one and pay a lot for it. But let's say if you are running a business model on a supply chain and you can't run a model that is more than 130 GB. That's too much. And they'll have to pay and purchase a separate workspace that is 700 GB. They call it "HyperCare" or a "HyperModel" and that's too expensive. Pricing is premium because they're the market leader right now. Their competitors are still far behind. haven't seen a real competitor in Anaplan's niche. Of course, IBM has Watson Analytics. However, when it comes to implementation, that's too technical and people tend to prefer Anaplan over that.

The entry-level is anywhere from about $30,000 to $50,000 a year, however, it does go up significantly after that depending on the complexity and how much space you're using. It's really driven by the number of users and also the space. It's more the user base, however, sometimes you need to buy extra users just to get the space.

While the cost is on the higher side, the value is high as well. The customer's plan is a yearly cost. It's software as a service. Beyond the standard licensing fee, there are no additional costs.

We are currently using a free workspace license for 90 days. We are satisfied with the price of the solution. There are additional costs if you want more storage, the default limit is 250 GB.
