Overall Satisfaction with Anaplan
As an implementation partner, my company assists in creating solutions for other companies to utilize Anaplan. Internally, we are also consumers because we do use it for workforce planning and sales, but in the role of an implementation consultant, we are brought in to transform various departments (supply chain, Finance, Sales, etc) in numerous industries (high tech, oil, and gas, consumer goods, higher education, etc.). COVID highlighted the need for companies to implement cloud-based solutions as most workforces are turning into hybrid work environments, which is where Anaplan solves the biggest problem through connected planning.
- Integration with ERPs.
- Ease of use/internal enablement.
- Versioning and scenario planning for variance analysis.
- Anaplan is dynamically changing —meaning that the product is being improved but the changes are not necessarily being communicated.
- Anapedia is not the easiest resource as the screenshots are not the best quality—video tutorials would be incredibly helpful.
- "Today" functionality—the model should know the current date like excel can.
- Versions
- Integration with multiple ERPs.
- Low maintenance
- As an implementation partner we have achieved Gold Partner level with Anaplan.
- Our partnership with Anaplan also has exposed us to new customers.
- We have improved our own ability to track internal projects with the tool.
