The licencing model for IBM Planning Analytics (TM1) will depend on whether your business chooses cloud or on-premise.

With the cloud option, the pricing is an annual subscription and you can easily scale up or down to suit the changing needs of the business. As with all cloud solutions there are no hidden infrastructure or internal costs.

Planning Analytics is also available on-premise with the licencing higher in the first year when compared to the cloud option. However, the subsequent years are much cheaper. It is important to factor in costs associated with on-premise hosting.

1Direction Global can help you work out the pros and cons to decide which option is best suited for your business.

A planning and reporting model based on IBM Planning Analytics (TM1) can be implemented from as little as 1-2 months. Much of this will depend on the complexity and number of models to be undertaken.
