Bespoke model development – With Anaplan, you can develop models that specifically address your particular planning challenges and then work with your userbase to quickly iterate on these initial designs.

Ability to integrate the planning activities of different teams – By connecting models together, you can integrate the results from different teams in your organization in a fast and robust way without needing to deal with the typical issues that result from a process of sending spreadsheets to each other.

Auditability of output results – Anaplan includes a number of features that allow you to quickly trace the output results back to discover the logic of the underlying calculations as well as what input changes have been made (including by who and when).

Efficient front end design studio – Anaplan have developed a front-end design framework that, while limiting some of your options, enables you to produce well-formatted front end screens very quickly. I feel the trade-off is net-positive given you can quickly produce, and subsequently update, many well-formatted screens in a relatively short space of time.

While the Anaplan platform provides a sandbox of customization, the flipside of this is that models can easily be constructed in a way that results in reduced performance if best practice techniques are not used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
