Overall Satisfaction with Workday Adaptive Planning
Adaptive is only used by the finance team at my company although it can be used by the operational org as well. I just find that getting other teams to lean/use adaptive is harder in practice than theory. It is a great tool for forecasting revenue and expenses and is really great at making fast scenario-based forecasts.
- Very fast. It is fast and easy to change one number and see how it rolls up to the financial statements.
- Simple interface. Really easy for new people to come in and start using it day one. Still a little much for a non-finance person to use it, but easy for the finance peeps.
- Poor customer service. We have some complicated problems, but they just haven't seemed super invested in helping us.
- It has been great to instantly see the results of changing the forecast. Solid ROI.
Adaptive is probably the best financial forecasting software available. Fast and easy to use. They are always making updates to it.
