About Oracle Cloud EPM Planning

Oracle Cloud EPM Planning is a financial planning and analysis (FP&A) solution that connects operational and financial planning. It supports budgeting, forecasting, scenario modeling, and reporting for various business functions including finance, HR, sales, and IT.

Oracle Cloud EPM Planning, an evolution of the legacy Hyperion Planning, is an enterprise-grade financial planning and analysis (FP&A) solution. It enables connected planning across an organization, linking financial plans with operational plans in areas like HR, sales, and capital projects. Core capabilities include strategic modeling, predictive planning using historical data, and detailed budgeting and forecasting. The platform's integration with Microsoft Office via a Smart View add-in allows finance teams to work within familiar spreadsheet environments. Oracle provides public per-user pricing for its Standard and Enterprise tiers and offers a 30-day free trial of its cloud platform. Support includes a comprehensive documentation portal, an active user community, and live chat for sales inquiries. Aimed at large organizations, it is a powerful but complex tool for sophisticated planning needs.
