"Planning Analytics User Experience"

1.5/5

What do you like best about IBM Planning Analytics?

Workspace is really good and it gives a good edge when organisations do their enterprise planning. It is easy to use and visualize data in order organisations can get a glimpse of their business rapidly.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM Planning Analytics?

it would be good if you can organise your TI process more proper manner, for example use some kind of folder structure for TI Processes. We know that workspace is still under development and we have found some bugs from the product but IBM is doing a good job to tackle these issues. For example we have faced issues with the scandinavic letters etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is IBM Planning Analytics solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are using PA for budgeting and forecasting and also modelling organisation business. If we compare PA to TM1, the biggest benefits are related to alternative hierarchies, better user experience and enhanced Excel add-on Planning Analytics for Excel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
