Overall Satisfaction with D&B Finance Analytics

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use D&B Analytics in our credit review process for determining whether or not to grant credit terms to customers, including the amount of credit to grant them.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Identifies company payment tracking... how late they are on making payments
Identifies basic company data... corporate information, legal activity (UCR's, suits, etc)
It is very helpful to get D&B recommendations on credit limits.

Cons

Unsure

Return on Investment

There hasn't really been a direct impact on our ratios.. nor on our cash flow or working capital.
D&B, along with trade references, just helps us to determine if a customer is credit worthy.

Alternatives Considered

I was not involved in the selection process. This was done long before I started working with the company.
