PALO ALTO, Calif., Jan. 21, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Adaptive Insights, a Workday company (NASDAQ: WDAY), has been named a November 2019 Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice for Cloud Financial Planning and Analysis Solutions. Gartner defines Cloud Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) solutions as those that “support the office of finance's budgeting, planning, and forecasting efforts. Many also supplement the office's budgeting and planning process support with modeling, collaboration analytics, and performance-reporting capabilities, all of which enhance finance’s ability to manage performance by linking corporate strategy and execution.”
In addition to being recognized by its customers, Adaptive Insights has also received the highest score for product or service for Upper Midsize Organizations in the 2019 Gartner Critical Capabilities for Cloud Financial Planning and Analysis Solutions report. The report provides insight into providers’ product and service offerings based on key capabilities. Adaptive Insights was also positioned as a Leader for the third time in the 2019 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud Financial Planning and Analysis Solutions.
“Modern planning drives real-time business insights, so that companies can successfully plan for what’s next,” said Sean Cox, vice president of customer success, Adaptive Insights. “We believe our recognition in Gartner Peer Insights and Gartner Critical Capabilities, as well as our position as a Leader in the 2019 Gartner Magic Quadrant for Cloud FP&A Solutions, is a direct result of more than 4,500 customers using our business planning platform for informed, faster decision making. In an era where agility is a competitive differentiator, our customers can be one step ahead to course-correct and maximize business opportunities.”
The November 2019 Gartner Peer Insights Customers’ Choice distinction is based on feedback and ratings from end-user professionals who have experience purchasing, implementing, and/or using the product or service. Adaptive Insights received the same distinction in the same category in April 2019.
Adaptive Insights believes that its distinction is based on excellent customer satisfaction, high-performance modeling capabilities, and ease of use experience.
