One thing to maybe explicitly stated, to compete with adaptive insights and anaplan, is that the model (assuming) auto updates with actuals monthly.

Hmm, good point. The way it works now is: if an actual is coming from an external source or a formula, it updates automatically (if it's manual, it doesn't). Once a month is closed and you want to start using that month as an actual, not a forecast, you just need to press a button "finalize all actuals for current month", and it all happens automatically.

We are positioning our product as much more lightweight and affordable solution than Adaptive or Anaplan.

Thanks, I've just changed it. It's definitely looking better. I tried border effects but I think they're too much for my (almost nonexistent) design skills.

Or maybe just drop the background effect on hover and add the underline effect to the mobile navigation on hover.

I think I got it right now.

I think you have problems with the mobile navigation now :) The hover effect makes the background white, however the text is now white too. I would do somethink like: .navigation:hover { border: 2px solid white; margin: -2px; } And tweak the border-radius/border-color a little bit maybe. The hover effect on the non mobile navigation is fine.

Don't need to write CSS, built the website with Webflow :)

It would be nice to have a sample table just to see how it works :-/ Looks great, though!

Thanks!

Two of the features we are considering next are templates and a guide/in-app training. Which one do you think would be more valuable to you?

I think it's helpful when if you open an empty dashboard, there is an example that uses all the features that you can play with.

I logged out because I couldn't really gauge the product without doing a lot of work.

Zenkit does what I'm talking about pretty well, if you're interested in this pattern.

Got it, thanks for the feedback. Certainly something we’re going to work to improve
