# Best Sales & Ops Planning Software - Page 5 *By [Daniel Rivera](https://research.g2.com/insights/author/daniel-rivera)* Sales and operations (S&OP) planning software bridges the gaps between finance, procurement, logistics, marketing, and manufacturing departments to galvanize supply chains in response to fluctuations in sales forecasts. More typically, the S&OP process is part of integrated business planning, as it involves collaborations across multiple departments and even companies to ensure the right amount of product is available during periodic adjustments to sales plans, capital investments, and logistics strategies. Due to the complex, multiparty nature of this process, S&OP software is needed for the storage of consistent data across organizations and automation of processes such as [demand planning](https://www.g2.com/categories/demand-planning), [supply chain planning](https://www.g2.com/categories/supply-chain-planning), and [inventory control](https://www.g2.com/categories/inventory-control). Demand planning is a vital function of this tool, as it helps recalibrate sales targets, plan supply chains, and provide opportunities for marketing departments to execute promotional campaigns. In addition, S&OP tools help sales, finance, and marketing departments determine the viability of sales and marketing plans through scenario simulation and what-if analyses to determine whether the proposed changes maximize profit margins, reduce costs, and align with supply chain capacity. Workflows then allow software users to map out the entire process of procurement, manufacturing, and distribution of goods for sale. To evaluate the performance of the S&OP process, this software also provides dashboards and key performance indicator (KPI) metrics. To qualify for inclusion in the Sales & Operations Planning category, a product must: - Provide supply chain planning functionalities, such as demand planning, replenishment, and capacity planning, to periodically recalibrate sales and inventory targets - Allow simulations and what-if analyses to determine the viability of proposed changes to business strategy - Use workflows to map out the tactical executions of sales and inventory plans - Provide dashboards and analytics to visualize and measure KPIs - Integrate with CRM and ERP systems to sync up sales activities, manufacturing, and procurement with supply chain operations - Track and optimize warehouse activity to ensure the right amount of product is available at the right time ## Top Sales & Ops Planning Software at a Glance | # | Product | Rating | Best For | What Users Say | |---|---------|--------|----------|----------------| | 1 | [Anaplan](https://www.g2.com/products/anaplan/reviews) | 4.6/5.0 (396 reviews) | Cross-functional connected planning with multidimensional modeling | "[Real-Time, Flexible Modeling That Speeds Up Decision-Making](https://www.g2.com/survey_responses/anaplan-review-12715706)" | | 2 | [CaptivateIQ](https://www.g2.com/products/captivateiq/reviews) | 4.7/5.0 (3,410 reviews) | Salesforce-integrated commission transparency and forecasting | "[Easy to navigate for Sellers and eliminate time usage.](https://www.g2.com/survey_responses/captivateiq-review-11398999)" | | 3 | [IBM Planning Analytics](https://www.g2.com/products/ibm-planning-analytics/reviews) | 4.4/5.0 (222 reviews) | Multidimensional what-if forecasting with Excel integration | "[Powerful Planning & Forecasting With Fast Updates and Smooth Excel Integration](https://www.g2.com/survey_responses/ibm-planning-analytics-review-12648783)" | | 4 | [Streamline](https://www.g2.com/products/gmdh-streamline/reviews) | 4.4/5.0 (253 reviews) | AI-driven S&OP with unified demand-supply planning | "[One Platform for End-to-End Planning](https://www.g2.com/survey_responses/streamline-review-12938037)" | | 5 | [Board](https://www.g2.com/products/board/reviews) | 4.4/5.0 (301 reviews) | Unified S&OP planning, forecasting, and reporting | "[Almost Unlimited Flexibility Across Data Models, Workflows, and Reports](https://www.g2.com/survey_responses/board-review-12625234)" | | 6 | [StockIQ](https://www.g2.com/products/stockiq/reviews) | 4.6/5.0 (98 reviews) | Demand forecasting and inventory replenishment planning | "[Boosts Planning Accuracy, Needs User-Friendly Navigation](https://www.g2.com/survey_responses/stockiq-review-12691619)" | | 7 | [Netstock](https://www.g2.com/products/netstock/reviews) | 4.6/5.0 (171 reviews) | Demand-driven replenishment with ERP-integrated forecasting | "[Netstock Streamlined Our Purchasing and Order Creation](https://www.g2.com/survey_responses/netstock-review-12662942)" | | 8 | [Logility Solutions](https://www.g2.com/products/logility-solutions/reviews) | 4.2/5.0 (124 reviews) | Demand forecasting and inventory replenishment planning | "[Powerful Forecasting and Supply Chain Planning with Logility Solutions](https://www.g2.com/survey_responses/logility-solutions-review-13101094)" | | 9 | [Pigment](https://www.g2.com/products/pigment-2024-01-19/reviews) | 4.6/5.0 (108 reviews) | Multidimensional S&OP with real-time scenario modeling | "[Power Pivot on Steroids—Intuitive, Modern Planning with Real-Time Collaboration](https://www.g2.com/survey_responses/pigment-review-12511185)" | | 10 | [LEAFIO AI Retail Platform](https://www.g2.com/products/leafio-ai-retail-platform/reviews) | 5.0/5.0 (31 reviews) | AI-driven replenishment with planogram execution | "[Simple access to deep analytics in visual merchandising](https://www.g2.com/survey_responses/leafio-ai-retail-platform-review-11937277)" | ## G2 Grid® for Sales & Ops Planning Software ![G2 Grid® for Sales & Ops Planning Software plotting products by satisfaction and market presence](https://www.g2.com/categories/sales-ops-planning/grids.png?focus%5B%5D=3027&focus%5B%5D=88220&focus%5B%5D=52827&focus%5B%5D=61979&focus%5B%5D=991&focus%5B%5D=60549&focus%5B%5D=65934&focus%5B%5D=1968) Highlighted products: Anaplan, CaptivateIQ, IBM Planning Analytics, Streamline, Board, StockIQ, Netstock, and Logility Solutions.
