Overall Satisfaction with Planful (formerly Host Analytics)
We keep Host within our finance department to load the data and create reports to push out to the rest of the company. We also use it for planning.
- Reporting is very quick and easy to consolidate information.
- The planning and HR modules slashes the time to create forecasts and plans tremendously.
- They could offer more dimensions because 13 make it very limiting.
- It was frustrating converting some report books, which they deprecated, to report collections because of the 10 tab limit. If they could find a way to work around this that would be great.
- The new report sets are a great feature but could use some more work with the precedence columns. It is always a guess and check and when using both a row and a column set, you don't always get what you want for formatting.
- We are able to do more analytics because we spend less time reporting.
