Anaplan is a great flexible tool. Having implement different Oracle and Workday software, this is by far the best solution and the most appreciated solution I've seen. It easily scales with business and is easy to learn by users that have never seen the tool before. It has some cons like pixel perfect reporting capabilities and technical support is slow and inefficient when there is a bug (which are rare).
Anaplan is easier to implement, easier to use, easier to maintain than these tools. It scales easily with the business. Workflows are easy to implement. It is easy to drill down and understand how the tool obtained a specific result, giving confidence in its calculations. Security and ALM are strong and allows multiple users to interact with the tool in separate ways and see value-added for each user type.

Anaplan is a great tool for business models with complex calculations that are evolving over time. It is easy to learn Anaplan and once you start using it there is added value from analysts up to c-suite decisions. Anaplan lacks vs. competitors when it comes to reporting, where it is not possible to have pixel perfect reports and where support is slow and inneficient.
