Performance of Workday Adaptive Planning Across Market Features

Workday Adaptive Planning Likes & Dislikes

Like

The ease with which the copany uploads new processes and I can see the entire traceability of my assigned work team

Like

I like how everything is laid out on workday in a clear organized manner.

Like

1.) The ability to tailor, adapt and scale the product to suit changing organizational requirements. 2.) The ability to self manage the product in terms of deployment, administration and maintenance does not require ongoing consultant support. 3.) Adaptive Planning can consume a multitude of data sets via a range of methods (flat file uploads, integrations, etc.) to facilitate all aspects budgeting, forecasting and reporting.

Dislike

The graphics aren't very appealing. I would like to be able to create reports more easily, and perhaps send reminders about pending task to my team. These are features I would appreciate having

Dislike

I dislike how long it takes to load sometimes. Most of the time it is fine but on the offhand it takes a while to load after I log in and I use Workday to clock in, so I want to get in as fast as possible.

Dislike

1.) Unable to investigate and resolve stalled processes without logging a case with Workday. 2.) The difficulty of removing dimensions from cube sheets once added. 3.) The check descendants feature is only available in certain parts of the product.
