Overall Satisfaction with IBM Planning Analytics

Use it to do many things. Sales reporting, forecasting and budgets. For Sales reporting I am able to slice reports for all of my markets with simple click. I am able to measure performance of actual sales vs forecast and budget. It is an amazing tool.

Pros

  • Loading data
  • Spreading Data
  • Reporting data
  • All of the above
  • Once cube with rules setup and hierarchies made I can do all of my reporting for many different areas of my business.
Important when we do our next year budgets or long range plan.
IBM Planning Analytics is easier to use and setup for me. Easier to make reports. Works fast

I’ve contacted support many times. They respond quickly and answer anything I ask.
even just for helping with a business process or questions on features.
I use it all day long. I have a few other analyst that use it all day long. Anyone I introduce IBM Planning Analytics to come back and tell me it’s the best & say “How did I manage without it all this time”
It is well suited for what I need it to do.
i can create hierarchies then send out reports based on the hierarchies. Able to create rules to create many different type of measures for sales.
