Overall Satisfaction with Cube Planning

Cube Planning helps us move away from performing budgeting and forecast in Google Sheets (which could become slow and unreliable on a larger scale). Team collaboration is achieved, cross-functional collaboration could be done at ease with proper access control and audit log. Customization of the product can be done at a certain extent as well, with great input and help from Customer Support team. The product is based on Excel and G-Sheet, so it's super user-friendly and agile.

Pros

  • Integration with Tableau and semi-automated integration with Netsuite Accounting System
  • Data Exporter provide access to cleaned data, acted as a source of truth
  • Transformative our Headcount planning, from previous 5-hour process to 20-minute.

Cons

  • Still need to manually import transactions from Netsuite Accounting System
  • Sometimes the software does not recognize pre-built Range properly
  • Missing actualizing function (copy Actuals for the months that have been actualized) into the Forecast
  • Integration with other tools and software
  • Ability to transform and store data as single source of truth
  • Quick and reliable calculation
  • reporting of financials on-time for analysis and decision making
I guess Oracle PBCS is more suitable for a larger organization. Thus with a small company lie us that require agile planning and reporting, it's not as good of a fit.
