Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We currently use Anaplan as a quota and territory management tool focused around our yearly target process. As of right now we only use it for the US business unit. However we are looking to expand this use case to Canada as well. Our goal is to then add additional use cases such as Compensation and pipeline/forecasting.

Pros and Cons

Allows non-technical business-oriented individuals create functionality in the system.
Highly customizable.
Excellent business partner from a people perspective. Very focused on customer success, not just the next PO.

Larger workspaces.
Ongoing support contracts based on LOE.
Better formula support and explanation within the model.

Likelihood to Recommend

Anaplan continues to provide us a platform to solve business problems that would otherwise get overlooked. The ability to create a data hub that can easily integrate with legacy systems and act as a staging ground for manipulating the data for multiple business problems is invaluable. Couple this with the ease of access and decreased reliance on IT makes this a very nimble and effective tool.
