“We previously had Anaplan, and it was a great tool, but far too complex for the size of the business, and we weren’t able to change the way it worked. We were left with an archaic system that wasn’t really fit for purpose, so we started looking at a few different alternatives We went far and wide in the market, and it was ultimately Vena that ticked the most boxes.”
“I love how quickly we can iterate now and model any unique revenue scenario we can think of...Vena really resonated with me as a finance professional right from the start—because any modeling I can do in Excel, I can do even better and faster in Vena.”
