584 Workday Adaptive Planning Testimonials

"With Workday Adaptive Planning’s robust reporting capability, we can drag-and-drop department-level data into the OfficeConnect interface and create unique rollups on the fly without manually adding spreadsheets or submitting IT tickets."

"Workday has helped us put people at the heart of what we do and continue to empower them."

“The ability to build scenarios to understand the impact of COVID-19 and inform decisions would not have been possible without Workday Adaptive Planning.”

"The biggest benefit of using Adaptive Planning has been the ability to produce reports. It is much easier to create key management reports now because Adaptive Planning is the only place in the organization that houses data across all platforms, including headcount reporting, unit sales, and service revenues based on the number of machines in the field."

"We use the Adaptive Planning Connector for Intacct, to easily import actual data with the click of a button. This has saved us a lot of time and enabled us to much more quickly forecast and report on the finances of the company. The visibility into the operation has been substantially enhanced and Adaptive Planning has enabled us to drive our business forward."

"If I had all the time in the world to create something, this is what I would build. It has the look, functionality and ease of Excel, but it also has sophisticated features that allow more flexibility in your planning process. We have a lot of in-depth Excel knowledge in our staff, so this made Adaptive Planning a natural fit. Adaptive Planning is a low cost tool that does not require IT support to manage. It's relatively easy to use and quick to roll-out."

"Users love the application because the model was built in such a manner that everything was pre-defined and all they had to do was enter the data and the application calculated and rolled everything up. In addition, managers can log-in from anywhere and even work on the budget while on vacation."

"Each year, rather than spending weeks of our time trying to develop budgeting and forecasting reports in Excel for any given request, we can run reports in Adaptive Planning in a matter of minutes. In the past, delivering an accurate report on a large account with multiple projects was difficult and required IT involvement. Now it is just a click of the button."

“We looked at other software solutions, but many of them required extensive IT support and significant capital investment. We needed something more immediate. Additionally our IT resources were focused on other near term projects so we were looking for something relatively easy to implement. Adaptive offered the best product to meet our needs. They were very responsive to our questions and evaluation process, and proved to be an excellent business partner.”

"We were all looking to transform our budgeting processes and Adaptive Planning was the solution reconnecting us around a common goal. After signing up for a free trial, I found the application intuitive and robust and immediately built a model to show the capabilities to our CFO. I also appreciated that the application was designed by a CFO to be similar to Excel."

"For what we wanted to accomplish, Adaptive Planning made more sense than the big enterprise applications. It was a more adaptable solution and allowed us to easily make changes and adjust assumptions. It also required a shorter implementation timeline and was more affordable. Cost was a secondary consideration. What we needed was a more flexible solution for budgeting and forecasting and Adaptive Planning really stood out."

"Adaptive Planning was one of the most successful roll-outs of software ever experienced at The NPD Group. After three months of using Adaptive Planning, the finance team received a standing ovation at the annual corporate meeting. Now that speaks to the adoption and the return on investment of Adaptive Planning."

"By implementing Adaptive Planning, we have a great reporting platform available to our organization. Now I can measure key performance indicators across our business. The ability to keep a dynamic forecast up to date and run scenarios quickly and easily is a big benefit."

"In a challenging operating environment, the ability to have real-time visibility into our results, analyze what the numbers mean, and make adjustments to manage cash flow, inventory and staffing at a store level has been a tremendous advantage for Papyrus."

"Each of the vendors gave us demos. We had a team of five people and used a set of criteria that we measured each product against. In the end we all agreed on Adaptive Planning. Adaptive Planning was by far the easiest to use, which was extremely important to us. It was also the least expensive, which was a bonus."
