Find out what your peers are saying about Anaplan, Oracle, Jedox and others in Business Performance Management."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."
"Where we're seeing the opportunity in the market is at the Fortune 100 companies that have far more complex modeling type scenarios where you need to be able to have a lot of people collaborating together, and you need a lot of information all at everyone's fingertips. This is where you see the big advantage of a solution like Anaplan."
"Technical support has been good."
"It's real-time connected planning, so the calculations are pretty much seamless as far as your model is connected."
"It's simple to use with a lot of functions."
"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."
"Anaplan provides 130 GB of cloud storage for organizations to use as part of their license."
"The solution works very well for budgeting."
"I like that all of the student information is in one place."
"The visualization tools in the product are limited in comparison to other reporting tools."
"Anaplan could be improved with a stronger consolidation module."
"Space and integration are a problem."
"One area of improvement is conditional formatting. It's not very practical, and you need to specify additional formatting."
"When there is a lot of data, it sometimes takes long to load."
"The solution could improve by better dashboards and while entering the form loss and project implementation the ability to use graphical shapes more effectively."
"Anaplan should come up with flexible options to connect to a data warehouse rather than an Anaplan hub."
"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."
"The functionality for monitoring satisfactory academic progress has room for improvement."
