Anaplan for SPM Review

Anaplan does not currently allow for object level migration - all migrations are done at the model level. This is to ensure a developer does not mess anything up when migrating to production, which is good, but can make it difficult to time releases and bug fixes.

Anaplan gives us a platform to have connected planning, so we don't need to deal with the downsides of sending google sheets back and forth. It allows for more integrated, real-time planning.

Say goodbye to Excel
What do you like best about the product?
Anaplan allows for an enterprise approach to planning and forecasting, allowing for collaboration while maintaining consistency in approach, calculation, and reporting. Manual Excel process can be eliminated in favor of scaled Anaplan models that allow for controlled access and user role-driven experiences.

While the UX has advanced greatly this is not a BI or data visualization tool, the power of Anaplan is in the calculation engine and the collaborative modeling capabilities. No native multi-select functionality and conditional formating can be a bit clunky.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dispersion of sensitive information in a controlled manner (selective access), the connection of disparate teams on a single platform, reduction in forecast process timelines.
