The data handling and versioning features are the best. The UI/UX is getting better day by day and the MCP connector with AI tools helps the platform for seamless connections. The performance is great compared to any other EPM system.

It scales well across multiple use cases, and its AI capabilities are improving rapidly. The UX is flexible, and there’s broad support for integrations across a wide range of sources.

I have experience with different enterprise planning platforms, Anaplan exceeds all of them from the standpoint of functionality/flexibility/process flows (if built/implemented properly). The one drawback is the models/workspaces size and number of concurrent users - works perfectly for planning teams up to 40-60 daily members, requires scalability for larger teams (but it's feasible). And it's excellent for the fin background/zero coding experience models developer.
