You have gone through another painful budget cycle and made the decision that spreadsheets just aren’t cutting it. It’s probably a realization you made a long time ago but now you are ready to evaluate new options.

Once you’ve made this important decision, it’s time to consider some of the key factors that will guide your goals and short list of vendor solutions.
Here’s the scenario: You and your team implemented Adaptive Insights to replace your inefficient spreadsheet-based budgeting and planning process a while back and, by all measures, it was considered it a success. You rightfully patted yourselves on the back and then got back to business. Then your “superuser” moved to a different part of the business or left the company. Read on to learn about the solution to this problem.
