Horizon Demand Planning
What it is
Horizon Demand Planning is web software that generates forecasts, helps teams understand changes, and turns demand decisions into actions they can track. It combines statistical, machine-learning, and ensemble models, with visibility into how forecasts are built. Demand sensing responds to shifts and learns from past events and promotions. Sales, marketing, and finance teams can collaborate on a live plan, track changes, and measure forecast value add. Planners can manage launches, phase-ins, and phase-outs at item or brand level, and receive alerts about outliers and large errors. An AI assistant can use text or voice to explore drivers, adjust forecasts, and provide insights. The product supports scenario planning, hierarchical forecasting, and SKU-location granularity. Pre-built connectors are listed for SAP, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics 365, and Infor; Excel and CSV files are also supported, alongside integration approaches for other ERP systems. Horizon says setup can take days and onboarding is included without separate fees for training or basic customization. A free plan is available, while the production license starts from €2,000/mo and includes three standard users.
