Adaptive Insights vs OneStream XF comparison

"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."

"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 biggest feature is the source of truth for all of our budget and forecast versions."

"Reports are allowed to be edited for aesthetic purposes, which is lacking in a lot of other dashboard tools."

"Forecasting changes that instantly flow through all financial statements."

"Automated reporting."

"It helps develop a more unified work format throughout the company."

"Changes to corporate structure, account codes are updated in all versions including prior years, hence "one-version of truth" as claimed."

"The product's most valuable feature is extensibility."

"It offers great ease of use. This impacts not only the end-user experience but also the administrator's, which affects the total cost of ownership."

"We were with Oracle previously. With Oracle, you have to buy a different piece of software for every business process. If you want to do budgeting, that's a product. If you want to do consolidation, that's a product. If you want to do BI type of work, that's yet another product. So, you end up buying a lot of software from Oracle. With OneStream, it is a little different. It is a platform where you can do all those things, and you can do them with just one software purchase and then you just pay for users on it."

"Adaptive Insights has a limit of 1,00,000 rows for HTML reports. It should be improved because we will have multiple dimensions that need to be populated to enhance the image."

"Better user interface (UI)."

"We tried Discovery and OfficeConnect at one point and found them too cumbersome, at the time."

"The upload feature exists, but isn't terribly useful."

"Their customer support team is slow to respond and not extremely confident."

"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."

"Discovery (the data visualization module): Needs to catch up with BI leaders, such as MS and Tableau. E.g., sorting by amounts in column charts and page slicers to control all visuals."

"Adaptive Insights could improve the data designer interface to make integrations easier to set up."

"Currently, they only support one browser, and it would be good if you could use it on Chrome, Firefox, etc. It is a little frustrating that you can only use a certain Microsoft browser. They're pretty tightly aligned with Microsoft. So, I can see the reasons for it."

"We should be able to download the data in the same format we upload it."

"AI is where I see the most innovation and progress, but it's not fully developed yet."

"Prior to purchasing licenses, make sure you understand which users will only need planning and which users will need both planning and OfficeConnect."

"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."

"It's affordable."

"Adaptive Insights' pricing is reasonable."

"Licensing seems to be worth the cost considering the efficiency Adaptive brings."

"Everything is negotiable, but this solution is low cost compared to others."

"Ensure that you have the proper pricing plan in place."

"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."

"They price it by the user. Before discounting, it is 2,500 or something like that."

"The licensing is expensive."

"The product has a license by the user. They're on par with other competitors."
