Easy to setup and support for HR and workforce

  • May 12, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use \ configuration. Simple setup on a small VM to connect our data with Anaplan., Dedicated team that works with you through the adoption process to get started.
Competitive price
What do you dislike about the product?
Initial vendor calls had a bit of disconnect between their sales and technical teams. A lot of confusion over certificates that ended up being a non-issue in the long run.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps our HR department make important planning data visualization and charts that would not be possible with something simpler like MS Excel and allows them to gather data to further compare with other departments for project planning, budgeting and financial consolidation.

Anaplan Review

  • May 11, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Anaplan shines when it comes to empowering the business. Having such a powerful platform can often be daunting, but Anaplan is built so that the tool can be wholly owned and operated by the business itself. It empowers the business through an easy-to-build structure without compromising on flexibility/capabilities.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think Anaplan could better make some tenant-level reports (metadata around user activity) more readily available/accessible. While not a major pain point, it is always nice to have this detail at your fingertips in the early stages of the deployment of a new solution.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Given the versatility of Anaplan, it is not limited to any one use case. Being an implementation partner, I am seeing Anaplan deliver value/benefit through its' focus on connected planning. That is, bringing multiple use cases together in a single environment for real-time connected planning.

What do you like best about the product?
I liked that it was easy to access and easy to understand. The format is user-friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like that anaplan is not very accurate with its data until the very last minute. Meaning the data is a bit jumbled until the last day of a quarter. Then you get accurate data.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Metric tracking to keep my reps on track with their monthly and quarterly KPIs.

Anaplan transforms business planning with the greatest flexibility

  • May 04, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
In Anaplan, anything is possible. A process that was manual and tedious can now be automated and centralized. This can eliminate time in the planning cycle and give users the ability to make more accurate forecasts.
What do you dislike about the product?
Anaplan is limited in the capacity for the graphs. I'd like them to release more graphics for the interface that would be useful to planning process. This is especially important in high level reporting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Anaplan solves the pain point when different departments are using different datasets for the same goal. This causes inaccurate forecast and does not foster a culture of collaboration.

I'm an FP&A Analyst using the tool on a daily basis

  • April 11, 2023
  • Review verified by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to automate processes and plan at any level of granularity. The UX is also very intuitive and aesthetically pleasing for our exec team to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it very difficult to back track and correct anything that has been accidentally deleted or overwritten on the UX pages. I would really like an undo-type functionality to revert data back to what was previously in the cell.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping us plan at a very granular level and automating processes that would otherwise take place in excel or google sheets. Which is eliminating much of the possibility for manual error.
