	Oracle Hyperion (legacy)	Workday Adaptive Planning
Considered Both Products	Discontinued Products Teal Sexton Interim Director of Business Intelligence and Finance Systems in Information Technology at University of California, Berkeley (Higher Education, 10,001+ employees) Chose Oracle Hyperion (legacy) It is the leading system, with the most power and flexibility of any of these. It is also the most expensive. Berkeley needs the best possible tool for this job. Questica and Workday cannot handle the number of dimensions we use. Adaptive might be a good competitor but since I … Incentivized Helpful?	Workday Verified User Chose Workday Adaptive Planning The main thing that sets [Workday] Adaptive [Planning] apart is the fact that it is a cloud based software, user friendly, and allows you to add to or change the model relatively easily. Hyperion is a good tool also but there is more flexibility with [Workday] Adaptive … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Workday Adaptive Planning I've primarily used Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management in the past and Adaptive Insights stacks up favorably against them. Hyperion is not nearly as intuitive, frequently requires a consultant or programmer to do anything outside of customized reporting, and is … Incentivized Helpful? Mark McConkie Financial Analyst II in Finance and Accounting at Workfront (Computer Software, 501-1000 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning I like how easy Essbase is to pull reports - but I think that OfficeConnect fills that gap. When looking at Hyperion vs Adaptive, I think that Adaptive's input is much easier to navigate. I like Adaptive much more. Because input is so much easier, it helps me be in the system … Incentivized Helpful? Brian Kyslinger Vice President, Financial Planning and Analysis in Finance and Accounting at ECPI University (Higher Education, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning Adaptive provided the best solution for the price given how we wanted to deploy the solution. For our size business they appear to the be best in class solution. Host Analytics appeared to provide the same functionality, but was for a more distributed budgeting and … Incentivized Helpful? Gary Grzesiak Manager, Budget & Finance in Finance and Accounting at American Dental Association (Non-Profit Organization Management, 201-500 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning Adaptive blows away Hyperion from an ease of use, functionality and performance standpoint. The reason we selected Adaptive initially was the flexibility of the tool (sheets), going from manual forecasts to a web based tool and being able to build assumptions into our budget … Incentivized Helpful? Chip Auscavitch Assistant Vice President of Financial Planning and Analysis in Finance and Accounting at Riverside Community Care (Mental Health Care, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning There's no comparison. Adaptive hits a home run in every area. The only advantage I saw with Hyperion is the starting point for personnel planning. They give you a good tool to start with, whereas you have to build from scratch with Adaptive. Incentivized Helpful? Zach Miles Financial Analyst in Corporate at Titan International, Inc. (Mining & Metals, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning We selected Adaptive over Hyperion because Adaptive implementation involved far less IT expertise. We also did not have any involvement with other Oracle products at the time. Adaptive appeared to be an easier platform to adopt. Judging from a short webinar of Hyperion, … Incentivized Helpful? Richard Danis Director, Finance in Finance and Accounting at Defence Construction Canada (Construction, 501-1000 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning In our evaluation process we looked at Hyperion and Cognos TM-1. The level of customization and professional services required to implement were significantly higher with these other 2 solutions. Adaptive is much easier to learn and doesn't require long term consultant … Incentivized Helpful? Brian Kam Process Specialist in Engineering at Cyanco (Chemicals, 51-200 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning Adaptive is simpler than say Hyperion. The Discovery is not as robust as PowerBI. Reporting is fairly simple but not as robust as Crystal Report ( at least the version 8-11 versions). Incentivized Helpful? Sandy Arami Financial Analyst in Finance and Accounting at Mitchell International (Computer Software, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning I have used TM1 and Hyperion in the past and I find Adaptive to be cleaner, more flexible, quicker, and more powerful. It is extremely user friendly and intuitive which means the ramp time for a new employee to feel comfortable and competent with the tool is comparably short. … Incentivized Helpful? Michael Spain Manager Financial Analysis and Cost Accounting in Finance and Accounting at CIRCOR International, Inc. (Oil & Energy, 5001-10,000 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning Our corporate entity using Hyperion and Adaptive is so much easier. There are several people involved in managing Hyperion where as I am the only one managing Adaptive. The ability of an end user to build a Hyperion report impossible unless you are a superuser. However, in … Incentivized Helpful? Alfonso J. Díaz Manrique De Lara University of Washington in Information Technology at University of Washington (Hospital & Health Care, 10,001+ employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning Better than all 3. Incentivized Helpful? Gene To Finance Manager in Finance and Accounting at Automation Anywhere (Information Services, 1001-5000 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning Very easy to do it yourself. WIth Hyperion/Anaplan, I had to rely on outside resources to do basic model changes. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Workday Adaptive Planning It doesn't have the same standard fulfillment modeling as the true workforce planning products, it equals the other core HCM systems and beats them on ease of use. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Workday Adaptive Planning All of the systems have their own unique strengths and weaknesses. Workday Adaptive Planning as a system is further along in overall functionality and is a more user-friendly system compared to other EPM systems on the market. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Workday Adaptive Planning It's very easy as an administrator to use Adaptive. Incentivized Helpful? Brandon Gappa Senior Financial Analyst in Finance and Accounting at Comcast Technology Solutions (Broadcast Media, 501-1000 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning We looked at essentially three different products. Essbase (Current), Adaptive Insights, and Anaplan. We knew that Essbase wasn't the right solution for our business with historical experience, it was too difficult to forecast at the detailed business unit, department, and … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Workday Adaptive Planning NetSuite and Adaptive go well together because it automatically pulls the data into Adaptive. You can then manipulate the data once it's in NetSuite. Management reports and Dashboards are automatically updated based on the new data that is pulled in. This saves alot of time … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Workday Adaptive Planning I've used Essbase and Hyperion (the non-Essbase version) previously. I slightly preferred Essbase to Adaptive insights from an ease of use perspective- particularly the Excel interface on Essbase. However, I simply could not justify the additional expense. So I wouldn't hesitate … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Workday Adaptive Planning My previous experience was with Hyperion Essbase , a number of years ago. Comparing the products at the time I used them, I would probably rate Essbase slightly higher in terms or how powerful it was. Having said that, the upfront cost was likely tenfold for Essbase. Even if … Incentivized Helpful? Imran Mohammad Director of Finance in Finance and Accounting at Peregrine Semiconductor (Semiconductors, 501-1000 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning Adaptive has a much better interface and usability compared to all these systems. It is also less complex, easy to configure and install, and easy to teach. Adaptive is more affordable, both short and long term. Incentivized Helpful? Jimmy Roybal Director of Financial Planning and Analysis in Finance and Accounting at Tealium (Internet, 201-500 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning Adaptive Suite is easier to use and cheaper. It all on-line and off premise so no additional capital spent. And you don't need any assistance from IT or Developers. Incentivized Helpful? Lisa VanHuystee SR Director, FP&A in Corporate at SEMI (Non-Profit Organization Management, 51-200 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning I have used Hyperion and TM1 solutions in the past. Hyperion was expensive and difficult to implement, requires more technical knowledge to set up the business rules for more more hands on IT support. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Chose Workday Adaptive Planning Adaptive's cloud-based solution suited our business model better. Its simplicity of use and ease of implementation whilst providing a robust platform made it the best choice. Incentivized Helpful? KaReese Watkins, CMA Strategic Finance Director in Finance and Accounting at Best Doctors Insurance (Insurance, 501-1000 employees) Chose Workday Adaptive Planning Adaptive Suite gave us what we needed and fit our use case perfectly. We did short list Host Analytics and they were neck and neck with Adaptive and it was a win/win for us and we would have been successful with either tool. My familiarity with Adaptive, the simplicity of … Incentivized Helpful?
