Get the current pulse from vendors and industries on the use or adoption of Enterprise Planning Software.
Our 2016 survey base provides a cross-section of data across geographies, functions, organization size, and vertical industries. We believe that, unlike other industry research, this supports a more representative sample and better indicator of true market dynamics. We have constructed cross-tab analyses using these demographics to identify and illustrate important industry trends.
Some of the highlights from this study:
- Twenty-nine percent of respondents use enterprise planning software today, down from 31 percent in 2015 poll, indicating ongoing soft demand for adoption.
- Among organizations that have not adopted enterprise planning software but do have plans, respondents indicate they are pushing out adoption into future time frames.
- Perceived criticality of enterprise planning declined 5 percent in 2016 while measures of “very important” and “important” improved slightly, indicating lower urgency that may relate to economic cycles.
- Finance is easily the leading advocate of enterprise planning.
