User Testimonials
	SAP Integrated Business Planning
Likelihood to Recommend	SAP Integrate SAP Integrated Business Planning in the daily operation of the core business is easy if the use of SAP HANA Cloud requires to increase in budget and is not possible for all types or sizes of organisations, but if your IT department requires to connect to on-premise data, connect to other data repositories on cloud or off-premise and customize reports for specific businesses cases, these tasks can increase the projected costs and require to adopt other SAP modules that can not be required at all.

Pros	SAP Comfortable database, it adjusts to what we know how to use. The platform acts quickly, and throws metrics and analysis adjusted to the times we need, thus automating the results. Complete and detailed reports, we can dynamically evaluate all the information. Incentivized Paul Visvardis CEO (Chief Executive Officer) Read full review
Cons	SAP The trial version is very limited, but it's a trial! But for the awareness of the platform, SAP could improve the free version. SAP IBP has a lot of functions, but not all are easy to understand and put into practice. Maybe a better demo would be a plus for the awareness of all of them.

Usability	SAP Because It is is a cloud-based platform that can be accessed from anywhere and also it has a user-friendly which is great for navigation within the software. As it offers a wide range of features including demand forecasting, supply chain planning, and collaboration tools which makes it even more powerful Incentivized Amit Kumar Technology Officer Read full review
Alternatives Considered	SAP They are entirely different solutions so ‘stacking them up’ doesn’t make sense. I raise this solution because PaPM is a highly-scalable analytics engine. If SAP sold IBP with PaPM it would eliminate the issues we have with scalability as we develop our top-down, bottom-up planning structure. Yes, it would raise the price, but given the focus on analytics to improve decision making, it seems a necessity for a company combining analytics and planning.
