Tips – An uneventful upgrade from TM1 9.x to Planning Analytics 2.x
As a result BOQ was able to successfully upgrade to TM1 version 11 (Planning Analytics 2), with minimal change to the business. It was easier than expected.
Bank of Queensland (BOQ) had been using TM1 version 9.1.3 for a decade and a business case was drawn up for an upgrade, which got executives to buy in.
Shan Attygale presented BOQ’s journey with the TM1 and Planning Analytics community at the Cubewise EDU User Conference on why an upgrade is possible even if you are on a legacy. He also shared his experience in this interview.
Key takeaways:
- The upgrade had to ensure over 800 TM1 users was smoothly transitioned, this included 80 Perspective users
- BOQ was able to successfully leapfrog to TM1 version 11 (Planning Analytics 2), with minimal change to the business
- Performance improvements have been the greatest enhancement by taking advantage of multi-threading
- A data load that used to take 90 seconds, now takes 5 seconds
