Anaplan, the only AI-driven scenario planning and analysis platform designed to optimize decision-making in today’s complex business environment, today announced it has been positioned by Gartner® in the Leaders quadrant of the Magic Quadrant™ for Financial Planning Software. Gartner evaluated 14 financial planning software providers based on their ability to execute and completeness of vision. A complimentary copy of the report is available here.
As finance leaders navigate increasingly volatile and compressed planning cycles, Anaplan has continued to expand its platform to help organizations make faster and more confident decisions. Over the past year, the company has advanced its innovation roadmap with enhanced planning applications — including improvements to Anaplan Intelligence, agentic AI that gives teams clearer insight and more confident action. These capabilities, coupled with its calculation engine and Anaplan Data Orchestrator, help enterprises automate complex model updates and assess potential outcomes faster and more reliably.
“Being recognized as a Leader once again, we feel, reflects how essential real-time integrated business planning (IBP) solutions have become for finance teams navigating constant change,” said Neil Thomas, SVP of Finance and Workforce Applications at Anaplan. “Enterprises can’t afford slow or siloed planning. Anaplan gives finance leaders the clarity and agility they need to anticipate what’s ahead and act with greater speed and certainty through our innovative platform, including our out-of-the-box, pre-built applications and Anaplan Intelligence (AI) portfolio.”
Gartner defines Leaders as companies that “execute well against their current vision and are well positioned for tomorrow.” Anaplan’s vision for modern financial planning is to give finance teams a connected, cloud-native environment that supports “what-if” analysis and more decisive action as conditions change.
