Overall Satisfaction with Anaplan

In our current project, we are bringing their production & material planning from excel spreadsheets into Anaplan.
  • Scenario planning
  • Connected planning since on a single platform, you can build any process/use case
  • single source of truth & real-time data sharing
  • unify data collection, analyzing & reporting
  • Limits of workspace or model size
  • User concurrency issues
  • since most of the formulas are excel equivalent, would like to see more functions coming in
  • Reduced time for planning cycles
  • Planners spend more time on planning rather than consolidating reports for planning
  • All data resides in one place & everyone referring to single source of truth hence data accuracy

Do you think Anaplan delivers good value for the price?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Anaplan go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Anaplan again?

Yes

It's mainly fall under EPM (Enterprise performance management) category so it best suitable to use it as a planning tool. It shouldn't be uses as an ERP tool because it's not well suited to handle big chunk data.
