Likelihood to Recommend My favorite part is using if for analytical review reports, especially budget to actual reviews. I can make changes to the GL based on issues found during the review and the report updates immediately without having to update, re-key, verify changes, etc. I know it is going to be updated and correct every time.
Read full review Clari works well for sales and executive leadership teams that perform at a high level and collaborate well together. Everyone utilizing Clari needs to understand that it will provide the company with the information it needs to make strategic business decisions. It can not be seen as a more sophisticated way to manage
SFDC information. If the company is truly dedicated to improving its forecasting capabilities, then Clari could be worth the investment. If it is just being used to capture sales leaders' forecasts, you don't need Clari. Overall, Clari is a great capability, but you need a good business case to justify the expense.
Read full review Pros Once a worksheet has been created, you can change a single cell and update the entire report. This makes it much easier than recreating a report every time you start. It draws data directly from our database that can be filtered down in various ways. This allows us to get the data that we really need quicker.

Read full review Cons Access to comprehensive training for new users is lacking. While the pay-based BizNet University has some useful videos it doesn't allow for other learning styles. Having to create a separate OCBC data source and linked server for each arm of business opened is sometimes a hassle. Read full review Forecast screen could be easier to interact with. I believe UI's that make users scroll horizontally lead to confuse and missed content since we rarely scroll horizontally on the internet. It's not as natural Enablement; I am confident my team is underutilizing Clari and that there are many more features that we should take advantage of. For example, the Dashboard screen looks good but in our company, our practice is to use the forecast and opportunity tabs instead. Reps and managers could benefit from a 30 min or 1-hour training session quarterly I like the opportunity score tracker but it would be great to know more of what comprises the score instead of feeling that it is just an AI. Perhaps giving the user more opportunity to validate or put their own spin to the score Read full review Likelihood to Renew Lack of communication from BizNet on new policies with the resellers, changes in the policies that affect the client aren't positive in my opinion

Read full review Usability Excel knowledge is a prerequisite to use BizNet well.
Read full review Clari is very good when it comes to usability as I'm accessing it on daily basis as long as I'm on my Notebook, it helps a lot having visibility on my business status and progress on achievement. I can estimate my weekly, monthly, and yearly opportunities closure and revenue. I have some saved views which are so useful to get what I want to see.
Read full review Support Rating We have only had a few occasions to call on the support team over 4 years, but every time our need was met in a superior manner.
Read full review Clari is very willing to jump in and build out use cases. They will work to do anything for you. That said, their follow up is not great. We have had to reach out for follow up several times on a project, which is still not complete. I wish they taught us how to complete what we want, rather than doing it in house for us
Read full review Implementation Rating We went pretty seamlessly into BizNet, but could have had lots of trouble if the professional service was not aware of our set up and use.
Read full review The Clari professional services team was great and kept us on our timeline. No complaints. Nothing amazing to report.
Read full review Alternatives Considered FRX - Great Plains Report Writer - These do produce financial reports but are much more tedious to set up. BizNet is much more flexible and easier to use. The functionality is an Excel add-on which allows us to use the powerful functionality of Excel as well as Biznet's functionality to do data retrieval from Sage 100 general ledger.
Read full review Clari was selected due to the flawless integration with
Salesforce , updates are made in real time. Being able to monitor everything at a scalable level has also been critical for our team. For example, we have different views established that show the rep level, manager level, director, customer segment. This eliminates unnecessary forecast/pipeline meetings
Read full review Return on Investment BizNet continues to pay for itself. I am sure we haven't even learned to use half of what it is capable of and their customer service is top notch. I would say that BizNet continues to have a positive impact on our entire financial portion of our business. Read full review We have significantly decreased the number of overdue deals in our funnel. We stay on top of deals within the pipeline much better now, since there is more transparency and accountability. This has sped up our sales cycle and our funnel is much more clean.
