Pigment is a leading alternative for strategic planning
Anaplan
Pigment natively integrates with over 30 business applications (ERP, CRM, HRIS, BI solutions and more).
Native integrations are limited to fewer than 10 business applications using the Anaplan Data Orchestrator.
Pigment is a natively sparse engine and workspaces are not limited in capacity.
Standard Workspace size is limited, and additional products may be purchased to manage larger volumes of data up to a limit of 720GB.
Data is shared across business functions without needing to manage imports between models.
Data imports must be set up and maintained to copy data across multiple models.
Data updates happen automatically, without end users needing to trigger a data refresh for real-time planning and visibility of changes.
End users must refresh their pages to see the effect of data updates by other users while working in the same model.
Data inputs can be made by end users while imports and data recalculations are in progress.
End users are prevented from making changes to the model while data imports, exports and susbtantial recalculations are in progress.
About the event
As the new year approaches and with planning in full force, it’s a good time to reconsider whether your EPM solution is able to keep up.
Going into 2025, agility will continue to be crucial so having a solution that can be relied upon during planning and easily updated as plans change will be key.

- Why Pigment is recognized as an "Overall Experience Leader", excelling in both product innovation and customer experience, while Anaplan straddles the line between ‘Overall Experience Leader’ and ‘Technology Leader’.
- How Pigment compares to Anaplan in categories such as product capabilities, support services and customer experience.
- Why Pigment is a Credibility Leader with high scores for value and confidence, while Anaplan is a Trust Leader with lower scores for both confidence and value.
- Why Pigment customers indicate high value and relatively low Total Cost of Ownership (TCO), while Anaplan customers rate it as having high value but high TCO.
- Real-world examples showing how Pigment helps companies achieve faster, data-driven decisions and measurable business outcomes.
