D&B provides insight into the viability of a customer who is looking for open terms and large orders on credit. It helps us determine the risk when lending to customers with whom we don't have much history. It's also helpful to see what types of liens/lawsuits they have pending at a given time.

It's really good in ensuring all of our accounting/finance people are on the same page and knowing what work is outstanding, at what step in the process reconcs or checklists or at, if we're tracking on time, who may need some additional support, etc. It really does a great job of letting us know when accounts are out of balance and needs to be looked at again. Ensures we will be fully ready for audit and pass with flying colors.

Pros
Dun & Bradstreet
  • Custom Scores
  • Finding Companies through Search or Advanced Search. It's got an easy search bar. And then for example, we have companies all over the world that come to us. And so we can just choose the country, for example, and then write the name in there and it'll bring up a lot of different companies that maybe are exactly that name or close to that name. And when we see what we believe to be the actual company, we can click on it and then know whether they are credit worthy.
  • Great UX on the website - fast and easy to use. The speed with which it operates is really terrific and very important for us because we usually have to make that decision right away.
  • Using something as objective as a numerical score simplifies decisions about offering credit. We have to make a decision usually on whether to offer credit to an advertiser quickly. So what's wonderful about the process is that we don't have to be searching around on Google or any kind of review site and then try to discern whether they're credit worthy. We simply open up the D&B Finance Analytics tool.

  • Provides a clear status of the month end close.
  • Allows us to analyze tasks by team member and reassign as needed.
  • It syncs with our ERP Netsuite to ensure balance sheet reconciliations can be tied out directly.
  • It also connects with Slack to notify users of key deadlines and changes in review status for team tasks.

Cons
Dun & Bradstreet
  • Updates on smaller firms are often spotty, and often we're notified or find out about substantial changes (e.g., location, management, et al., well before these turn up in their report.
  • It would be nice to have forms automatically submitted when the return key is used; this is a nice shortcut instead of mousing over to the Submit button, and was present in earlier iterations.
  • The ability to tailor automatic sign-outs. Often I'm working on a specific customer, and I go back to start another a few minutes later, and find myself logged out. Automatic sign-outs were for a longer time span previously.

  • A setting to allow for attachments to automatically be opened within the app (Adobe, Excel, etc.) rather than as a separate tab in the browser
  • Some of our tasks are quarterly or annual so assigning a very specific date would be helpful
  • Eliminate the need of "closing" review notes. Once we change the status to Resolved, that should be sufficient. Make Resolved and Closed one and the same

D&B Finance Analytics reports have just about everything. You can see a full company profile including legal forms, history records, employee count, years in business, paydex scores, delinquency scores, viability ratings, state of incorporations, naics codes, CEO or business owner names, etc. There is a lot that pulls up in this report

It has proven to enhance our procedures with closing. It is an effective tool that I would recommend to create a more efficient closing procedure and get the team more aligned. It increases the accountability among the staff and helps to keep us on task and on time. It is easy to sign into and has reminder emails for tasks that are coming up or late.

Usability
Dun & Bradstreet
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

FloQast is incredibly intuitive and easy to use. The only reason I don't give it a 10 is that the Flux Analysis feature is not great in terms of getting the information into the system. Once it's in, fantastic! But some work is needed

We have only noticed a slight slow down in accessing FloQast on a couple of occasions (near the beginning of a month when many people were likely trying to get online to close their books). The issue has always resolved itself with three to five minutes, so it's never been a hinderance.

Support Rating

Support is great, issues are resolved quickly and easily, I've never had a significant issue but if I did run into a problem, I'm confident in the D&B team and their ability to address and resolve any potential issue based on my past interactions, the training I received and the flawless implementation.

They are rapid in their response. If they can't immediately offer a solution, they continue to keep in contact with you to let you know where they are in resolving your issues. The staff is friendly & speaks to you in layman's terms, not so high-tech that you can't understand

The FloQast team members are just so personable. FloQast has clearly done a great job hiring people who are not just good at what they do, but are also fun to work with! They have placed people in the right roles and the customer benefits from this. I have enjoyed every opportunity I've had to work with a FloQast team member on training.

Online Training
Dun & Bradstreet
The online training was worth it. We did an online training with our team and an account rep from D&B. They walked us through the entire interface and answered all of our questions.

The online training is good. But like all online, pre-recorded training, it is never quite as good as in-person or live training where one can ask questions or get clarification. That said, FloQast has an extensive training library and most of the time, if one finds they need help on a topic, it can be answered by going to the online training and watching appropriate recording.

Alternatives Considered

I have been given multiple free trials to competitors trade credit reports and have found that none are as comprehensive as D&B. D&B secures that most trade data which is the backbone of commercial credit reports worth and internal scoring models. That said, D&B charges a substantial premium compared to competitors which makes switching a viable option if budget is an issue

The User Interface and implementation were the key drivers for choosing FQ compared to BL. Our team was up in a matter of days or so it felt! Even if you didn't get properly trained in FQ, you could easily figure it out on your own, which was nice, especially for a large team.

We started using it with one client/customer and now use it with fourteen entities and plan to add two more in the next couple of months. It has made it possible to grow our business without hiring additional personnel. We can do more work with the same number of people

Return on Investment
Dun & Bradstreet
  • More or less improved efficiency in our Bank's underwriting process, but new deals have been slow as the economy worsens
  • We haven't been creating much new business due to the environment we are in and the position we are in as a regional bank
  • It will continue to strengthen our credit risk assessments

  • Floqast has reduced our closing schedule by roughly 15-20% of the time it took us beforehand.
  • The product has been very beneficial for us during audit time when we can easily demonstrate our control workflows on reconciliation and task approvals.
  • I can update our CFO at any point in time how we are trending towards close and can coordinate with finance as to the moment journal entries have been completed
