Usability

This is a fair rating based on personal experience and based on what I hear from the users in my company.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are using Adaptive Suite across the entire company. We have a very complex structure with over 100 P&Ls. Adaptive allows for transparency and the flow of data. We use Adaptive for forecasting, budgeting, analysis, and reporting.

Pros and Cons

Everything is one place
Easy interaction between users across the country / organization using life data
No downtime during update and maintenance.
Ease of interfacing with other databases

User roles and responsibilities for personnel only

Return on Investment

Less time on consolidating and building forecasts and budgets

Reporting

I am using office connect. Definitely decreased timing in preparing reporting and improved accuracy.

Role Impact

Definitely. Time saver

Alternatives Considered

N/a

Likelihood to Recommend

The application is hosted by Adaptive, however, it is customized to the customers' needs. Based on the data you have in Adaptive, Adaptive will give you what you need. There are certain administrative areas that I wish were better, for example, I wish there was awash to set up user roles with personnel only access

Peace of mind for your reporting and FP&A process
