Forecast Pro Editions

To satisfy different corporate needs, three editions of Forecast Pro are available—Basic, XE, and Unlimited. Which edition is right for you depends on a number of factors including how many items you need to forecast, which forecasting techniques you need to use, and whether or not you need to work with others to establish the final forecast.

Forecast Pro Basic is designed for individuals with modest forecasting needs. It utilizes time series approaches (techniques that create forecasts based strictly upon the past history) and allows you to forecast up to 10 items (such as products or SKUs) at a time.

Forecast Pro XE is our most popular edition. In addition to time series methods, Forecast Pro XE offers promotional modeling, causal modeling, the ability to define and reconcile hierarchies, and the ability to forecast up to 100 items at a time.

Forecast Pro Unlimited offers much more than just the ability to forecast a larger number of items at a time. It is designed for larger-scale forecasting jobs, collaborative forecasting, complex hierarchies, integration with other systems, maintaining multiple forecast overrides and documenting your forecasting sessions. If you are forecasting more than 300 items or need to work with others to establish the final forecast, then Forecast Pro Unlimited is the only version of Forecast Pro you should consider.
