Reporting and forecasting have become more automated through intuitive data organization and flexible number calendarization
I do not have any improvements from my own end at this time.There are some specific features or functionality that I would like to see included in Anaplan in the future. From what we have been using, I do not think there is any specific one because we import and export numbers. Importing and exporting with CSV files is already available in Anaplan. I do not have any special requests from Anaplan. I still decided to give Anaplan an eight because I have not seen a specific dashboard on Anaplan. Anaplan could have a dashboard where you can see the flow of your numbers displayed on pictorials rather than just saying this is the number. Simple dashboards should be implemented.

Excellent for budgeting and forecasting, but long-term it will no longer be developed or supported
The fact that in a few years' time it is no longer going to be supported is a big concern. Therefore, I would advise against Hubble. Additionally, I think we underestimated the time for deployment, we thought it would be a few months and it took much longer than expected because the consultants didn't understand our process in detail before committing to the process. On a scale of one to ten, I would give Hubble a seven.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It's simple to use with a lot of functions."
"Anaplan's in-memory calculation engine is super-fast compared to the old tools we previously used. You enter the data and everything shows up in one go."
"The multidimensionality helps significantly with scenario planning, allowing me to run various scenarios and check the outcomes, which suits my needs well."
"The solution is stable and the performance is good, and it is actually performing very well as it has reduced a lot of manual work and manual exercises."
"Because of that flexibility and ability to build models in the way you want to build it, it means you can tailor it to the company's requirements."
"After we implemented it in Anaplan, it made the calculations much easier and at one time, multiple users could log into Anaplan and work simultaneously for different areas."
"You don't need to have a programming language to use Anaplan."
"Anaplan has eased a major pain point in mapping multidimensional data by combining all the necessary dimensions into a single tool, making it much easier for managers to understand the data coming in from their reps."
"Hubble will truly blow you away once you get to know the product and the people behind it."
"The most valuable features are both its budgeting and forecasting."
"Reporting was dramatically improved."
"Being able to create calculations, hierarchies, aging buckets, etc. has reduced the Excel reports we used to have."
"We have saved hours of Excel work producing the same results, which Hubble gives in minutes."
 

Cons

"A better presentation layer would certainly take it a notch higher."
"The price of the solution can improve."
"One area of improvement is conditional formatting. It's not very practical, and you need to specify additional formatting."
"Anaplan could enhance its user interface by including a more user-friendly API."
"I chose a rating of eight because there is one backlog item: we are currently not using Anaplan for data reporting purposes."
"Small changes could create massive amounts of data without the Anaplan Builder knowing that they did that. This could push us over space/storage limits quickly."
"Anaplan lacks a native ETL tool, making it challenging to integrate numerous flat files."
"I would rate scalability between six and seven. Anaplan had issues before, but the new Polaris engine solves them, although its implementation is more challenging compared to the Classic engine."
"When exporting to Excel, it is values only."
"We have been advised by the owners that the budgeting tool is no longer going to be supported with future development, so my recommendation would be for them to continue to invest in development. Otherwise, at some point we will have to migrate to another technology."
"Exporting to Excel takes a lot of time when broken into sheets/files."
"The fact that in a few years' time it is no longer going to be supported is a big concern. Therefore, I would advise against Hubble."
"The only thing I may add is that it can get a little pricey when you add annual maintenance."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This is an expensive product and if the price were reduced then it would attract more customers."
"The price of the solution is expensive."
"A value-for-money product and a very reasonable price compared to competitors like SAP or IBM."
"This is a yearly subscription. So a customer initially buys a workspace and specifies how much GB they want. The minimum starts at around 30 GB. You can buy multiple workspaces."
"Anaplan is a bit pricier compared to its competitors - the license costs about $4,000 per user annually."
"The tool’s pricing is reasonable and competitive with other solutions."
"We are currently using a free workspace license for 90 days. We are satisfied with the price of the solution. There are additional costs if you want more storage, the default limit is 250 GB."
"The cost of Anaplan is a challenge for clients, especially if they don't have an ongoing long-term use case for it. It's a $50,000 licensing fee just to get started. Clients need a strong business case to switch from Excel to Anaplan. But if clients have used something similar in the past, such as Hyperion or other solutions, that's not a factor because they know what to expect."
