"Moving forward, Nucleus expects Host Analytics to continue to invest in new features and capabilities and continue to provide its users with an easy to use, scalable solution that offers strong, unique functionality."

Host Analytics Modeling capability was highlighted in detail in the Nucleus report as a key differentiator. The capability helps bridge finance teams with their counterparts in operations, enabling them to combine financial planning data with operational data from other sources within the enterprise and model out multiple "what if" scenarios. These scenarios inform revenue planning, sales operations planning, OpEx planning and more with the ability to automatically link back to the corporate plan. Business leaders are able to make more informed decisions, better assess risk for those decisions and create more accurate forecasts.

"We are thrilled to again be recognized as a leader in Nucleus Research's CPM Value Matrix; it is truly an honor," said Ben Plummer, CMO of Host Analytics. "Our high rating in usability and for functionality in particular, is testament to our deep understanding of the most pressing challenges facing finance teams today and our ability to deliver agile and scalable solutions that help modernize the role of corporate finance."
