What do you dislike about Anaplan?

The most frequently complained-about aspect of Anaplan, as reported by clients I've assisted, is its pricing structure. Many find it complex and sometimes cost-prohibitive, especially for smaller organizations. Simplifying and offering more flexible pricing options could improve accessibility for a wider range of businesses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The critical weakness of Anaplan is it's dashboarding, and more generally, its lack of customization options for formatting reports.
