Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use D&B Connect to review all builders hired by our clients. D&B Connect gives us the information needed to review and accurately assess each builder proposed by our clients. It also provides us their history of building and history as company as a whole with thorough information that leads us to making decisions on whether to allow them or not

Pros

Detailed information
Easy and ready to use

Cons

Better at removing older profiles
Search bar could be more defined

Likelihood to Recommend

D&B Connect would be suited towards helping my coworkers assess and review profiles of companies to gather further information on their history since they began operating in business. However for the credit portion of a review, I would not recommend D&B Connect because it doesnt give enough details on that side of things

It can be integrated into existing systems such as CRM or your company ERP system. We use it primarily for company data and financial data.

November 24, 2024

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We primarily use D&B Connect to compare our internal metrics related to sales, earnings, KPIs, and customer data against benchmarks provided by D&B Connect. It helps us keep our older records up to date across multiple internal data systems and keep them inherently coherent. While we use other products and managers to track our data, D&B Connect is a good tool amidst a suite.

Pros

Find outliers in systems.
Track clients.
Manage consumer and customer workflows.

Cons

I find there is a high learning curve.
It's not easy to integrate with our internal systems off the bat.

Likelihood to Recommend

We use it to connect and put in conversation multiple separate data siloes to allow us to conceptualize our data better. If your data is extremely sophisticated or proprietary, though, I would not be comfortable using this as a primary tool for data management or CRM management use cases alone.
