Case Study: A10 Networks achieves faster forecasting and streamlined financial reporting with Workday Adaptive Planning

A10 Networks adopts Workday Adaptive Planning to keep pace with growth

A10 Networks, a provider of high-performance application networking solutions, needed a more comprehensive planning and decision-making process to keep pace with growth. The finance team lacked deep insight into trends and forecast assumptions and needed earlier visibility into bookings and gross margin movements to make timely course corrections.

By adopting Workday Adaptive Planning and integrating it with Oracle and other systems, A10 automated KPI reporting, centralized data, and deployed visual analytics across the organization. The changes cut the finance workflow by three days per month (about 36 days annually), reduced data-entry errors, turned a full-day board refresh into minutes, and created a single source of truth that enabled faster decision-making and a more data-driven culture.
