ClientTestimonial
Polestar Solutions stepped in and meticulously
analyzed our Anaplan implementation. They
thoroughly assessed our models, identified areas of
improvement, and expertly optimized our Anaplan
storage space utilization. Their approach was practical,
well-structured, and focused on delivering tangible
results. Since then, we have greatly increased our
performance and been able to get better performing
models that too with lesser space utilization.
