"Sophisticated yet easy to use"

5/5

What do you like best about BluePlanner?

Incredibly powerful and feature rich, has all of the bells and whistles but is a great value. We liked that it was easy to configure, not a steep learning curve for our sales team, and was an very fast implementation. Integration to our SAP ERP was simple, and the support we received during implementation and ongoing is great. UpClear is very open to feedback and is constantly working to improve the product with new releases and upgrades. We're very happy with our choice! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about BluePlanner?

No downsides. We thoroughly evaluated 3 other vendors and BluePlanner was the clear cut winner in the evaluation, and they have delivered what they promised. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is BluePlanner solving and how is that benefiting you?

BluePlanner has helped us get visibility to our trade spending, unlocking opportunities to refine and optimize. Additionally, we're able to manage a Sales forecast based on fundamentals (Base + Incremental). We now have a much clearer picture of what is going to happen, which has been a huge help in building AOP and reforecasts during the year. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
