Overall Satisfaction with Anaplan

We use it as an FP&A tool in the finance department.
  • Easy collaboration on building models at the same time
  • One place to go for reporting of actuals
  • Easy to change the names across all the models
  • Missing Functionality - Multi-select filters. Currently there is only a single selection from a drop down list. Creating multi-select requires over-complication of the logic.
Works well if there is an Excel based working model. It easier to load data in Anaplan knowing what you want to see in the end. It works for the data that is organized in a table format.

Not sure about specific scenarios when Anaplan does not work well, as I am only starting to use it.
