Provides all essential features needed in an integrated Enterprise Performance Management framework
The solution's initial setup/configuration is straightforward. As far as cloud setup is concerned, no installation is involved. In that case, the solution is maintained and hosted by Oracle. The time frame for deployment depends on the use cases. It is rapidly deployable for out-of-the-box features and customizable for any further changes/enhancements needed. It takes anywhere between six to ten weeks to deploy for standard requirements.

It has helped us speed up the turnaround time on our consolidation, and we haven't had anything come up that the program has not been able to solve
The part that we liked about Excel is that it had a better interface in terms of just graphical illustration of our results. So, if we wanted to look at our financial trends and put it into some type of graphical interface for people to look at, we still have to leverage Excel for that. The dashboards aren't as usable as maybe some of the other solutions, such as Tableau or other BI tools. The application that we use today for our BI tools is Tableau. That's how people absorb information. We don't really use the functionality or dashboards within Planful because of the robustness of Tableau. That's our single source of data. If Planful was better or more comparable in terms of features and functionality, we could probably leverage that in Planful.
