Anaplan is a cloud based planning tool

  • January 02, 2024
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Anaplan is capable of handling various use cases among FP&A, Sales, Workforce Planning, Product Manufacturing, Transportation, and Supply Chain.

Anaplan offers a single platform that multiple users (100s, 1000s) can access at the same time, which allows collaborative and real time planning.
What do you dislike about the product?
Anaplan uses a sparse calculation model. As a result, models can become very large.

The large the model, the higher the licensing fees and potential impact to performance.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Anaplan is solving the problem of relying on disparate Excel sheets and Excel models to perform monthly, quarterly, and annual budgeting, planning, and forecasting cycles.

The benefit is that there is more security and transparency to the models being hosted in a single clould planning platform as opposed to Excel files on various employees' laptops.
