About TM1
IBM Planning Analytics powered by TM1 (aka TM1) is the ideal technology for making spreadsheet-centric budgeting, forecasting, financial reporting and literally any spreadsheet-based analytical application scale to the enterprise. TM1 combines the freedom, flexibility and familiarity of spreadsheets with the power and control of an enterprise database. TM1 uses the same cell-oriented concepts as spreadsheets, but can support collaboration among thousands of users, using terabytes of data and deeply complex modelling to match real-world business needs. In this way, TM1 is a natural evolutionary step after spreadsheets – providing the intuitive power and flexibility of spreadsheets and scaling it to the enterprise. Like spreadsheets, TM1 is valuable to business users because it allows them to combine multiple data sources along with user input to create the business models that underpin real business decision making.
