As part of Planful's continued commitment to providing customers with this critical capability, recent product releases, including Winter20 and Summer20, provided a platform-wide user interface upgrade, as well as a new and improved roster view, making it easy for users to manage employees across multiple departments simultaneously. The upcoming Fall20 release, scheduled for November, will unveil additional new features, further simplifying workforce management for customers in an elegant, visual interface.
"Companies are focused on workforce planning more than ever, but many HR leaders are realizing that they're operating with a critical gap in their technology stack," said Grant Halloran, CEO of Planful. "Our robust workforce planning solution fills that gap, providing leaders the ability to engage in more efficient planning and decision-making, with a deepened collaboration between Finance and HR teams."

Customers are benefiting from up to a 75% reduction in the length of planning cycles. In moving to a cloud-based platform with Workforce Planning capabilities—rather than operating in a myriad of disconnected, siloed point solutions—organizations can capitalize on more accurate plans and forecasts. Businesses seeking to achieve fast time-to-value in addressing critical workforce planning needs can be up and running on the Planful cloud platform in less than 30 days.
"The need for continuous, collaborative planning for leaders in all corners of the business has never been more important than it is now," said Doug Henschen, VP and Principal Analyst at Constellation Research.
