"The use of IBM Planning Analytics has enhanced financial and project planning."
4.5/5
What do you like best about IBM Planning Analytics?

This provides quick answers to questions, assists in use cases, and solves problems on the fly. This was the right time for the MVP to be available for the internal users, with the freedom of use of the product in different ways. So far, I am very much impressed at how well and fast the software works in general, and I am quite satisfied with the development process. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about IBM Planning Analytics?

Most things are just a case of getting used to using the Cloud, and you do lose a level of control around things like software updates. Another problem is that IBM Planning Analytics does not have an app; this means that the users are literally stuck up with their plans. Ways could be designed for internal and external people to ideate easily and then collaborate on those ideas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about IBM Planning Analytics?

IBM has also been very open to our feedback and suggestions on how things could be done better. They've always reverted promptly when we had questions, worries or use case talks. This kind of help was essential for us to make sure that we could use the tool in total capacity. Planning Analytics is very fast and good at what it does. Minimal viable products sent to internal customers work well and the direction and speed of creating products can be exciting. It is a flexible tool that manages a variety of tasks.

What do you dislike about IBM Planning Analytics?

You had to give up some of that control, like when the program was changed because it was a cloud based method. I also think that customers would gain a lot from having a security guide, logs, literature created automatically and native connections. Exactly when these characteristics are in demand, they have to be made by hand. Thank goodness, we just put in place a licensing system that is more open and easy to use.

What do you dislike about IBM Planning Analytics?

Most aspects simply require adapting to the Cloud, though you do sacrifice some control over things like software updates. Another issue is the lack of a mobile app for IBM Planning Analytics, which leaves users tethered to their plans. It would be beneficial to create ways for both internal and external users to easily brainstorm and collaborate on their ideas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
