Adaptive Planning Manager at Alight
Adaptive scales well, simple to create new budget versions and models
For the organization I used to work at, it streamlined the process of creating budgets. It's very simple to create a new version and do some more modeling based on your need for planning things like headcount, other expenses, and revenue, everything is configurable within Workday. So that made it easy. Reporting was pretty easy to set up as well. It streamlined the amount of time it took to do the budget as well as kind of making it simple to implement a rolling forecast process. So, it really was more just a productivity increase and time shortening for the budgeting and forecasting process.

The infographics feature is unique to Necto. However, they need better tutorials and community support.
The best feature I liked is the infographics which is great and it's best unique feature. It helps developers use existing infographics from the library or they can create their own and present to end users It's quite easy to create reports in Necto using the infographics feature. Collaboration…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It has helped us to automate a lot of our processes."
"The reporting tools are what I gain the most benefit from."
"Automated reporting."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its dashboard."
"Provides ability for business users to directly manage their plans, data, and budgets."
"The important feature is integration with source data. It connects to various ERP systems, including Workday, Intact, and others. It can also import actuals and compare them to PlanPoint quite easily."
"The system has allowed us to take more than 90 spreadsheets and combine them into one system which automatically calculates based on assumptions, dimensions, etc."
"Our organization is able to use Adaptive to complete a major majority of our monthly management and quarterly Board reports, and by refreshing reports and pages automatically, it creates the monthly report package with little to no manual staff work."
"It is an easy infographic design app that requires very little effort to produce interactive dashboards in ways that make sense to the enterprise."
"A very good self service BI tool Allows connecting multiple data sources"
"Excellent in memory performance, return results with clicks, matchless click to collaborate features, just initiate discussion on data points and context, connect relevant users and dashboards and explore suggestive auto insight."
"Eye catching infographics and very good collaborative capabilities providing context based discussion has really impressed our users within the organization."
"This tool exceeded my expectations!"
"I have recently started working on this tool, and being a novice to the analytic field, I feel quite comfortable with this tool even during my beginner sessions."
"Very powerful tool which supports almost all data sources automatically."
"This infographic solution spawns amazing obvious sales reports and you can check many aspects of work of your sales team."
 

Cons

"It's complex; thinking about the business models and capabilities in Adaptive."
"Being able to drill down when using OfficeConnect needs work."
"The planning functionalities are the weakest part of Adaptive Insights."
"Users continue to become more advanced and are looking for more advanced solutions."
"It's a Workday product; they could do a little bit better to integrate a pure-play integration with Workday, which really doesn't do that."
"The product's configuration process could be faster."
"We do have issues getting information on our customer success turnover."
"The upload feature exists, but isn't terribly useful."
"Support for other languages should be provided."
"Multi-language support"
"Large data-set analysis performance"
"Initially when one starts with the tool there are so many options on the console (it is a bit cluttered), one is a bit confused."
"There is need for improvement with report sharing and documentation."
"They have too many options in the graphs and when I asked the support to help me with that, they did not respond."
"Online tutorials on this are not available. This should be done or documentation can be improved."
"No Outlook or Lotus support. No support for languages other than English."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Adaptive Insights' pricing is reasonable."
"Adaptive Insights' pricing is relative to its peer competitors. It's certainly competitive compared to a spreadsheet template that you build in Excel. It can be expensive if you need to have 100-500 budget holders giving input and building financial plans. However, in that case, it becomes an extremely good bargain. Compared to its competitors, it offers an excellent value."
"Ensure that you have the proper pricing plan in place."
"It's affordable."
"Pricing is in line with other cloud-based EPM tools. It is a subscription-based model based upon the number of users and site type if it's an admin or end-user type thing."
"Everything is negotiable, but this solution is low cost compared to others."
"Prior to purchasing licenses, make sure you understand which users will only need planning and which users will need both planning and OfficeConnect."
"Licensing seems to be worth the cost considering the efficiency Adaptive brings."
