We did some analysis of Anaplan, but it seemed they were built for much bigger companies. It did not seem like we could implement and maintain Anaplan without significant IT support, which was one of the main goals of the project. Anaplan did seem like it could have more capabilities, but the amount of work we would have to do to successfully set up and maintain the system seemed extensive and hard to achieve.
