What is Anaplan?

Anaplan is the enterprise-scale planning platform used by most of the Fortune 500 for FP&A, sales compensation, quota and territory planning, workforce planning, and supply chain. The differentiator is Hyperblock, a proprietary in-memory calculation engine that handles multi-dimensional models with hundreds of millions of cells. Extremely powerful, but also expensive and dependent on specialized modelers (Anaplan Certified Master Anaplanners). Acquired by Thoma Bravo in 2022.
