Overview

OneStream is a corporate performance management (CPM) platform built by OneStream Software, founded in 2012 and headquartered in Birmingham, Michigan. The company went public on the Nasdaq (ticker: OS) in July 2024. OneStream reports serving more than 1,900 customers, including roughly 21% of the Fortune 500, across around 45 countries.

The platform unifies financial close and consolidation, tax provision, financial planning and analysis (FP&A), and reporting on a single extensible data model rather than as separate connected products. Close and consolidation functionality covers global consolidations, intercompany eliminations, currency translation and AI-assisted account reconciliation; FP&A covers top-down, bottom-up, driver-based and zero-based budgeting plus rolling forecasts and scenario modeling; and a dedicated tax provision module automates effective-tax-rate reporting and disclosure workflows alongside the corporate close. A no-code, plug-and-play architecture called Genesis lets customers extend the same platform into adjacent domains, such as workforce, sales, capital or ESG planning, using prebuilt solution blocks rather than custom development.

Data connects into OneStream through prebuilt Integration Connectors: the vendor documents direct-connect integration with more than 250 ERP, HCM and CRM systems, including SAP (S/4HANA and ECC), Oracle, NetSuite, Microsoft Dynamics and Workday, using built-in RPA-based loading with drill-back to source transactions. OneStream is delivered as a single-tenant managed cloud service hosted on Microsoft Azure, and also offers a packaged CPM Express edition aimed at mid-market companies (roughly $200M-$1B in revenue) with a fixed-scope, 8-12 week implementation.
