In April 2011, Adaptive Planning introduced its Spring 2011 Release, which featured a breakthrough new multi-instance capability that allows multi-entity organizations to streamline and enhance complex, multi-division planning, reporting, and consolidation processes. The release also greatly expanded its integration platform, allowing cloud-to-cloud in addition to cloud-to-on-premises connections to numerous systems, including NetSuite, Salesforce.com, OpenAir, Intacct, Oracle, SAP, Great Plains, QuickBooks, and many more.

According to an independent survey of 1,000 senior financial executives conducted by Merrill Research in 2011, the usage of CPM solutions in midsized companies is expected to skyrocket over the next two years, increasing by up to 77 percent. Additionally, 42 percent of midmarket companies plan to evaluate a new or replacement CPM solution. The report also found that Adaptive Planning has the #1 overall brand rating in midmarket CPM, ahead of well-known technology vendors such as Oracle, SAP, and IBM.
