Overall Satisfaction with Anaplan
Anaplan is used for our entire financial forecast process including bookings, revenue, expenses, balance sheet and cash flow. All budget managers are responsible for the input associated with their budget, so we have fairly wide use, but it is limited to only a few touch points a quarter. The main problem it solves is the centralization of the planning process.
- Aggregating significant amount of complex and disparate data.
- Almost as flexible as an Excel spreadsheet... almost.
- Availability - rarely down.
- User management can be painful.
- User experience has only marginally improved while I think Anaplan has spent a lot of time patting themselves on the back.
- The rollback situation is a joke. A simple mistake in a formula will result in 5-12 minute lock ups. This is reaching a breaking point for us.
