How to increase data security by eliminating spreadsheets while breaking down silos

What do you like best about the product?
Anaplan's security via self services, single sign on and central identify management allows planning teams to stop sending risky emails with attachments and to plan and review via dashboards. By leveraging Anaplan, a centralized planning tool, the forecasting teams standardize processes, democratizes data via transparent data values and as a result breaks down silos.
What do you dislike about the product?
Anaplan is currently not an out of the box solution, so implenting it requires dedication from the business. The Anaplan way, and working with partners helps organizations positvely transform their planning process, but in the end the buisness has to commit and invest in change.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Anaplan is providing transparency from start to finish in the planning process. During C-Suite reviews, if anyone asks: "where does that value come from" the presentor can drill down into the value. When previously preparing for C-Suite reviews, different parts of the organization may have calculated the same metrics with different logic or inputs, Anaplan forces the organization to provide transparency, alignment, and standardization where applicable to that planning process.
