Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "Everything is negotiable, but this solution is low cost compared to others."
  • "Licensing seems to be worth the cost considering the efficiency Adaptive brings."
  • "Prior to purchasing licenses, make sure you understand which users will only need planning and which users will need both planning and OfficeConnect."
  • "Ensure that you have the proper pricing plan in place."
  • "Adaptive Insights' pricing is reasonable."
  • "Pricing is in line with other cloud-based EPM tools. It is a subscription-based model based upon the number of users and site type if it's an admin or end-user type thing."
  • "Adaptive Insights' pricing is relative to its peer competitors. It's certainly competitive compared to a spreadsheet template that you build in Excel. It can be expensive if you need to have 100-500 budget holders giving input and building financial plans. However, in that case, it becomes an extremely good bargain. Compared to its competitors, it offers an excellent value."
  • "It's affordable."

    Tom Sawyer Software
    Overview

    Adaptive Insights is a cloud-based financial planning and analysis software that helps businesses streamline their budgeting, forecasting, and reporting processes. 

    With its intuitive interface and powerful analytics, it enables organizations to make data-driven decisions and drive business performance.

    Tom Sawyer Perspectives is a low-code graph and data visualization and analysis development platform with an integrated design and preview interface with extensive API libraries.

    • The platform integrates enterprise data sources with powerful graph visualization, layout, and analysis technology to solve big data problems.
    • Perspectives enable developers to quickly develop production-quality, data-oriented visualization applications. Two graphic modules—the Designer and Previewer—are used to build applications to visualize and analyze the specific data that drives each project.
    • Using the Designer, developers define the schema, data sources, bindings, rules, views, filters, searches, and analyses. To simplify schema creation, several integrators support schema extraction.
    • Developers can also use the Designer to specify custom toolbars, tooltips, context menus, and graphical viewing and editing behaviors. With the Previewer, they can iteratively view the application design without needing to recompile. When used together, the Designer and Previewer provide an efficient round-trip process that dramatically speeds up application development.
