Product Information on Pigment

Updated 23rd January 2025

What is Pigment?

Business planning platform built for agility and scale that connects people, data, and processes. Teams from across an organization such as finance, sales, supply chain and HR can review business performance, build plans to reach objectives, run forecasts and scenarios, and pivot when things change. Pigment's core differentiators are first, its Integrated Architecture of over 30 native connectors, ETLs and APIs to maintain data updated, in real-time in an automated fashion. Also, Plans are built on top of a 'data hub' which allows for shared metrics to be used and always in sync across models. Second, its Intuitive UX has a modern design with collaboration intrinsically built in (comments, filters, etc.) and dedicated visualizations for different teams to look at data how they plan (e.g. org chart for HR, geo maps for Sales). Thirdly, its Adaptability, so models can be adjusted when the business changes (e.g. reorg, M&A) and one-click scenarios to forecast any assumption

Pigment Pricing

Pigment's pricing model is comprised of a platform fee, use case fee and licenses (editor, contributor and explorer) according to the needs of each customer.

“Web-Based Performance Issues Impact Audit Functionality in FP&A Planning Software”

3.0
Apr 7, 2026
The FP&A planning software is fine, it has a fancy looking UI. I don't think it is optimized well on a web base and I think it looks user friendly but for more complex work it doesn't work the best, unless you have a fundamental understanding of coding / data structures

    Extensive flexibility in modeling balanced by somewhat a lengthy implementation

    May 24, 2026
    Pigment was absolutely the right choice we made 2 years ago when we upgraded our EPM platform. The consulting partner had domain expertise in financial services that helped in deciding on Pigment. The support has been great and it was truly 3-way partnership effort all the way.

    Agile and scalable, but requires disciplined architectural oversights

    5.0
    Apr 17, 2026
    Pigment offers an incredibly powerful calculation engine that has significantly leveled up our modeling capabilities. However, there is a steep learning curve regarding formula logic and architecture management to grasp the full potential of the platform. We encountered some early-stage hurdles and 'bad practices' because the platform allows for flexibility that can lead to pitfalls if the initial architecture isn't strictly managed. The silver lining is the platform's agility; it is easy to patch and evolve existing models without total rebuild. Our primary forward-looking focus is ensuring our architectural foundation is robust to support upcoming Ai agent integrations.

Deciding Factors: Pigment Vs. Market Average
Performance of Pigment Across Market Features

Pigment Likes & Dislikes

Like

1) Fairly easy transition from Excel language (commonly used by finance team) to Pigment modelling 2) Excellent customer service - very quick responses, attention to detail, technical and modelling help are great 3) Easy to manage system - no need for a distinct system admin (at least at our company size) 4) Very flexible platform - easy to set up new models and change calculations 5) AI capabilities have been gradually introduced but fairly high quality

Like

1) It looks visually pleasing 2) Dimensionality allows for easy drill down of data 3) AI Modeling agent can help audit formulas

Like

Pigment touts its white-canvas concept, where you can build anything in the tool. Our 3 use cases were to (1) build a cost allocation engine to product P&Ls by product, partner and business, (2) automate monthly Board deck creation and (3) forecast models for revenue and expenses. We are done with the build-mode and now moving into full adoption and running with the tool.

Dislike

1) Speed and size limitations - starting to reach formula time-outs, maximum data import sizes, system overall slowing down 2) Access rights management is difficult to understand and implement, probably the least intuitive/user-friendly aspect of Pigment that I've encountered 3) Model documentation is difficult to establish and maintain in such a flexible environment

Dislike

1) Web page is not optimized well / is slow at times 2) Sometimes frustrating to audit formulas just given its different from XLS 3) Nature of it not being software makes things harder to audit

Dislike

The long implementation cycle and tech-debt in learning Pigment modeling syntax would be some pain points. However, with the recent modeler agent launch, this gap would be shortened for sure.
