Overall Satisfaction with Anaplan
Anaplan is still currently being used by Finance only but I can see how other departments like Sales Operations could benefit from the usage of Anaplan.
- I think that Anaplan is good for workforce planning. The strength is that once you have the raw data of the personnel, one could upload the sheet for a more automated output.
- It is at times difficult to trouble shoot. It would be nice to have better references to the source cells.
We use another software to do budgeting but designed it like a spreadsheet. In theory, Anaplan is more powerful because you can input one formula which can populate different timelines. I feel that Anaplan's strength is that you do not have to duplicate entries.
