Overall Satisfaction with Adaptive Insights

We use/used Adaptive Insights to manage the current budget, forecasting (both operationally and financially), and managing our Sales capacity. We work with the varying department heads on setting a forecast, then meet both monthly and quarterly to review their results against the forecast. Adaptive has allowed us to get timely insights, so that we can properly pro-actively act, rather than being reactive.
  • Adaptive is simple and easy to use with anyone that has any experience using Microsoft Excel. It is unintuitive, and the learning curve is relatively short.
  • Version control is another key attribute. You can manage multiple versions, and lock them down when appropriate.
  • User interface could be updated. For those that are end users (department heads), they don't live in Excel all-day long and don't have that same love for how data is displayed.
  • Some softwares are now using historical data to give you true insights...and to pro-actively reach out to you. For a great planning tool, there needs to be pro-active insights by the module.
  • It gave us greater insight into spend...and presented the right information for us to proactively act.
Adaptive Insights is the market leader. There isn't a comparable product that can compete with them. Because of that, I would always recommend them.
