Clari vs. Xactly Forecasting®

We use Clari as the primary way to manage our sales business, our opportunities, and our forecasting. Clari provides a very clean, digestible, and easy to manipulate format to view and manage all of the Salesforce information. The fact that Clari is able to provide an easily customizable set of columns and groups, coupled with the ability to write back to Salesforce is fantastic. Anyone in a mature sales organization will find Clari highly effective at helping manage their funnel of opportunities and their business.

When you are looking to see where the risk are and where the future will bring you, this is the tool for you! I can see this being a useful tool, however once I am in the groove I don't know how much I would use it. All in all I would say us it if you are in sales, it will improve your overall sight.

• Creates call summary and add them in created tags to help us to targeted monitoring.
• Help us create battlecards that agents can use on live calls.
• Help us create library and playbook of good and bad calls for training.
• Help us provide a call overview by team.

• Sometimes we'll update everything and it won't save so GTM teams have to do it again. Not sure if it's whenever we do platform updates.
• As a manager I'm not able to reorder my teams names in the rows. I have to ask our Admin to sort A-Z which is time wasted

• Is only for opportunities.
• Difficult to bring in custom object.
• Some alert notifications were tough to configure

I will renew my Clari Subscription for many reasons. 1. Streamlines Sales - Clari automates many manual tasks like note-taking and transcripts. This frees my sales team so they can focus on closing deals. 2. Increased customer retention - Clari helps me identify potential churn risks and take proactive measures. 3. AI-Driven Insights

Clari's UI does not resonate with new users. The backend query updating takes quite long time to update. Lots of fixes are needed without answers or solutions offered by the Clari team. If set up correctly with clear recommendations from the Clari team, all the previous issues may be resolved, however the usability is tied closely to set up.

The system is usually fast and loads quickly. Occasional slowness is observed during processing heavy uploads or downloads.

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

We had one session of in-person training conducted in our office.

Clari has good training materials, videos, and documentation.

No more the better there is a plan and technical support the business needs and functionalities can be created for the company to use it like that

At the time of selection, Clari was a more mature product than Xactly Forecasting. We did not want to experience growing pains with Xactly. Pipeline Inspection from SFDC was just becoming available. We had already selected Clari before we learned about Pipeline Inspection.

Xactly Forecasting has a smart AI tool, this is what puts them ahead of the competition. With their smooth interaction with other apps and programs, it makes it seamless when using other apps and programs. I find that when it uses its forecasting skill it shows us exactly what we need to see for the future.

Clari is worth the investment with its advanced forecasting and pipeline management. They have a unified revenue platform that serves as a single source of truth for revenue data.

• I no longer spend hours reconciling spreadsheets or guessing which opportunities are real - Clari shows me exactly where to focus to drive results.
• I have consistently hit my quota the last 3 quarters thanks to Clari's precision and detailed insights.

• Honestly, we cannot put a value on it. It's hard to know if it helped or hurt, but don't think it has helped.
