Planful Review
Planful Review
Pros
I appreciate the capability to integrate other systems using third-party software. The browser-based reporting feature is visually appealing.
Cons
When it comes to saving HC to finance and HR cubes, there are many additional steps involved. My experience with Adaptive Insights was much more efficient in terms of saving data to the database. However, I encountered an issue with the model for our vendor spend in Spotlight, as it led to incorrectly saving data to other scenarios.

Best Budgeting tool
Best Budgeting tool
Pros
The software is user-friendly. It allows me to lock down budgets to prevent changes and seamlessly incorporate real-time data from our ERP system for financial reporting. It has significantly reduced the time spent on annual budgeting, saving over 100 hours. The Excel-based interface makes it accessible and understandable for non-financial users. Additionally, it offers segmentation options for controlling access and includes workforce planning capabilities.
Cons
So far, I haven't encountered any issues with the software. However, I have only been using it for a short time.

Robust financial reporting software.
Pros
My favorite feature is the Workforce Planning module. Data loading and updates are fast, and there are numerous options for modeling and allocating compensation items. Training budget preparers is straightforward, and they can easily navigate the system. Reporting options are extensive, both within Planful and externally, and the platform experiences minimal downtime.
Cons
The training documentation could be expanded and enriched in certain areas to provide a more user-friendly administrative experience.

Solid Choice
Pros
I appreciate the compact and reasonable size of most features in the software. Although initially intimidating for new users, our small team has been able to manage it across multiple hospitals and user types. With minimal IT support, we have put in the effort to make it valuable.
Cons
Dealing with processes and building infrastructure around raw data can be challenging. Since we don't have a data warehouse, connecting data becomes even more difficult. I consider this software to be a mid-tier product in some ways, so it would be logical for the developers to consider that not all companies have a solid infrastructure to support the fast and elaborate functions provided. Ideally, the system could be more comprehensive or help us establish a one-stop-shop solution.

Planful: Modern FP&A Solution
Planful: Modern FP&A Solution
Pros
Administering the system is seamless and adaptable. Our previous system required a significant amount of time for maintenance and troubleshooting. With Planful, after going live and achieving stability, it now takes less than 50% of my time. This allows me to focus on process improvement, automation, personal development, and future enhancements. Reporting is extremely user-friendly, both within the platform and with Spotlight, empowering users to create and administer their own reports.
Cons
Loading actual wage data by employee seems more complicated than necessary. Preparing the file for data loading takes approximately one hour per month, while other data load rules take less than five minutes. We also experienced issues in the past with workforce data input and locking between users. However, the extensive workforce UI redesign in 2020 has made it much easier for our team to use.

Solid tool that will help you manage your budget with ease!
Pros
Planful encompasses all the necessary features in one tool, including workforce planning, budgeting, forecasting, financial reporting, and easy creation of management reports.
Cons
There are several enhancements that I plan to discuss with our customer success manager. However, I have no doubt that with Planful's release schedule, incorporating these items into our environment will be easy. If I had to choose one thing I like least about the software, it would be the suggestion that implementation partners fully understand our structure and the reports we need in the software. When we implemented years ago (which I'm sure has improved since then), there were features and items that weren't even discussed and were only discovered later.

A great all round FP&A solution that is competitively priced
A great all round FP&A solution that is competitively priced
Pros
We utilized Planful's Reporting and Consolidation functionality and are currently implementing Dynamic Reporting/Spotlight to revamp our internal budgeting and forecasting process. The system is remarkably easy to use after the initial setup, with minimal training required. It offers impressive power and flexibility while maintaining competitive pricing. The support staff and implementation consultants are exceptional.
Cons
The main drawback of the solution is the lack of training materials available. Since it is a relatively new platform, there isn't a wide range of training resources for end users to learn the platform. This creates a greater dependency on the materials provided by Planful, and in my personal opinion, the training courses don't effectively bring a Planful user up to speed. Fortunately, Planful seems to be investing in a new Engage forum, which will undoubtedly assist new users of the system.

Less Inituitive than other systems but more modeling capabilities
Pros
The modeling and reporting capabilities in Host distinguish it from other systems. The ability to directly integrate reports with system data pulls is a valuable feature that simplifies workbook complexity.
Cons
The software has limitations in terms of scalability, which may pose challenges when scaling up. Additionally, it is not an intuitive system to learn, especially with the spotlight add-in, and it is not as "ad hoc" ready as some other systems like Hyperion.

High Quality Financial Reporting Platform
High Quality Financial Reporting Platform
Pros
The dynamic reports and drill-down capabilities in Planful are major advantages. It allows for precise financial information, and the inclusion of links to source documents enhances transparency in reporting. The Spotlight for Excel add-in facilitates the development of custom, refreshable reports. The forecasting and budgeting tools are also commendable.
Cons
Implementing new software for financial reporting always has a significant learning curve. However, there are several quirks in data loads and reporting cube processing that make things more challenging than they should be.

We had a quick implementation, and find that the environment is very flexible. All end users :-)
Pros
Host Analytics allows interfacing with various types and volumes of data without limitations, as long as a common field is maintained. The implementation process went smoothly with the assistance of a consulting partner, and it significantly reduced our budget manager's reporting time from 3 days to 3 hours. The modeling module utilizes an Excel add-in, maintaining the familiarity and usability of Excel while storing the results centrally, ensuring there is one version of the truth when retrieving data. The customer service is unparalleled, with a dedicated team focused on ensuring their customers' success. Feature updates are frequent and align with customer needs and requests.
Cons
We had to rely on a partner consultant for implementation, mainly because our small company lacks internal IT resources. The initial implementation without a partner encountered delays due to resource and communication issues.

Pros
The database is incredibly deep, and it seamlessly integrates with our diverse data feeds, providing high flexibility.
Cons
The software is slow, and data retrieval is not immediate. This can be frustrating, especially if the data is not pulled accurately on the first attempt. Collaboration can also be challenging, as the individual models are fragile and require online updates.

Planful Review
Pros
I appreciate the capability to integrate other systems using third-party software. The browser-based reporting feature is visually appealing.
Cons
When it comes to saving HC to finance and HR cubes, there are many additional steps involved. My experience with Adaptive Insights was much more efficient in terms of saving data to the database. However, I encountered an issue with the model for our vendor spend in Spotlight, as it led to incorrectly saving data to other scenarios.

The software is user-friendly. It allows me to lock down budgets to prevent changes and seamlessly incorporate real-time data from our ERP system for financial reporting. It has significantly reduced the time spent on annual budgeting, saving over 100 hours. The Excel-based interface makes it accessible and understandable for non-financial users. Additionally, it offers segmentation options for controlling access and includes workforce planning capabilities.

Pros
I appreciate the compact and reasonable size of most features in the software. Although initially intimidating for new users, our small team has been able to manage it across multiple hospitals and user types. With minimal IT support, we have put in the effort to make it valuable.
Cons
Dealing with processes and building infrastructure around raw data can be challenging. Since we don't have a data warehouse, connecting data becomes even more difficult. I consider this software to be a mid-tier product in some ways, so it would be logical for the developers to consider that not all companies have a solid infrastructure to support the fast and elaborate functions provided. Ideally, the system could be more comprehensive or help us establish a one-stop-shop solution.

Planful: Modern FP&A Solution
Planful: Modern FP&A Solution
Pros
Administering the system is seamless and adaptable. Our previous system required a significant amount of time for maintenance and troubleshooting. With Planful, after going live and achieving stability, it now takes less than 50% of my time. This allows me to focus on process improvement, automation, personal development, and future enhancements. Reporting is extremely user-friendly, both within the platform and with Spotlight, empowering users to create and administer their own reports.
Cons
Loading actual wage data by employee seems more complicated than necessary. Preparing the file for data loading takes approximately one hour per month, while other data load rules take less than five minutes. We also experienced issues in the past with workforce data input and locking between users. However, the extensive workforce UI redesign in 2020 has made it much easier for our team to use.

Solid tool that will help you manage your budget with ease!
Pros
Planful encompasses all the necessary features in one tool, including workforce planning, budgeting, forecasting, financial reporting, and easy creation of management reports.
Cons
There are several enhancements that I plan to discuss with our customer success manager. However, I have no doubt that with Planful's release schedule, incorporating these items into our environment will be easy. If I had to choose one thing I like least about the software, it would be the suggestion that implementation partners fully understand our structure and the reports we need in the software. When we implemented years ago (which I'm sure has improved since then), there were features and items that weren't even discussed and were only discovered later.

A great all round FP&A solution that is competitively priced
Pros
We utilized Planful's Reporting and Consolidation functionality and are currently implementing Dynamic Reporting/Spotlight to revamp our internal budgeting and forecasting process. The system is remarkably easy to use after the initial setup, with minimal training required. It offers impressive power and flexibility while maintaining competitive pricing. The support staff and implementation consultants are exceptional.
Cons
The main drawback of the solution is the lack of training materials available. Since it is a relatively new platform, there isn't a wide range of training resources for end users to learn the platform. This creates a greater dependency on the materials provided by Planful, and in my personal opinion, the training courses don't effectively bring a Planful user up to speed. Fortunately, Planful seems to be investing in a new Engage forum, which will undoubtedly assist new users of the system.

The modeling and reporting capabilities in Host distinguish it from other systems. The ability to directly integrate reports with system data pulls is a valuable feature that simplifies workbook complexity.

Pros
Host Analytics allows interfacing with various types and volumes of data without limitations, as long as a common field is maintained. The implementation process went smoothly with the assistance of a consulting partner, and it significantly reduced our budget manager's reporting time from 3 days to 3 hours. The modeling module utilizes an Excel add-in, maintaining the familiarity and usability of Excel while storing the results centrally, ensuring there is one version of the truth when retrieving data. The customer service is unparalleled, with a dedicated team focused on ensuring their customers' success. Feature updates are frequent and align with customer needs and requests.

The initial setup is not self-serve, but that's typical for most financial planning software. It can be overwhelming at first, but it becomes easier with time.

Pros
The database is incredibly deep, and it seamlessly integrates with our diverse data feeds, providing high flexibility.
Cons
The software is slow, and data retrieval is not immediate. This can be frustrating, especially if the data is not pulled accurately on the first attempt. Collaboration can also be challenging, as the individual models are fragile and require online updates.
