    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    Planning analytics offers a lot to appreciate especially for users focused on forecasting and reporting capabilities with its deep integration points with other tools and AWS services. The engine allows users to analyze huge amounts of data quickly enabling real time planning and forecasting. The platform is highly customizable and can be tailored to fit business needs and with plug ins available to access its data via Excel, REST API, or web based experiences.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    While Planning Analytics is a robust tool, there are a few downsides or challenges that users often encounter. While the TM1 engine is designed for speed, some users report performance issues with extremely large and complex models which can slow down operations. IBM has invested resources into the database but lacks on the front-end side and it is almost a requirement to leverage other 3rd party tools to cover IDE like development and web experiences.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    We are able to create unique models that are catered for our business lines quickly with a turn around time of less than 3 months.
