Likelihood to Recommend RSA Archer is fantastic at cataloguing, personalizing assessments, raw reporting, and capacity to add custom fields. It is a little clunky around adding contextual information to notifications, peeking into data before attempting to load pages, quick navigation or determining linked (or sub-linked) relationships. These are all concerns that can either be worked around with an appropriate data scheme or with careful administration of the sub-routines.
Read full review D&B is best in class for commercial credit reports in US. They get the largest amount of payment data which drives all of their internal scoring. I have used a number of competitors over the years and none measure up to D&B. That said D&B is very expensive compared to comparative reports. Also, all of the scoring is only as good as the trade data received and many companies do not report trade data. For that reason I tend not to trust many of predictive scoring models they provide. Reports outside of US are very expensive and most times provide very little data. This is a common problem with most domestic based credit reporting agencies and some countries just don't provide this type of information

However, one has to be careful while installing the update. There is no open and free academy to learn more about the tool.

Read full review I would you rate the D&B Finance Analytics's overall usability a 9 because it is super easy to use. The only reason for a 9 is there are a lot of features that I didn't realize were there and was not sure how to actually use them or what kind of information I could get

Read full review Implementation Rating Skipping question, I was not involved in implementation.
Read full review Alternatives Considered It has been roughly 5 years since I have seen Securevue, so a lot can change, but to me it felt like several products were purchased and an attempt was made to piece them all together into a single solution (and I believe that may have been true). It also required agents on endpoints which did not fit the model I believed customers were looking for.
MetricStream appeared to be difficult to install as it took their own engineers some time to get it installed in my lab environment. I did not think their web interface was as intuitive as RSA Archer. Customization to the platform was possible to some degree, but required a lot more work and technical skills than required by Archer. I did like the landing page for
MetricStream which called out the important action items for the current user, but Archer v6.X now has this feature.
Read full review I don't currently and have not in the past used any other similar products. D&B Finance Analytics is the standard used in my industry and since it is used in my role for verification of information it is important I use the same provider as others. I have been pleased with my experience with D&B Finance Analytics and am happy this is what is used.
