Overall Satisfaction with D&B Finance Analytics

Mostly for credit checks, in order to control new clients financial health, hence assessing their capacity to pay.

Pros

  • Company data info
  • Estimating financial health
  • Delinquency score

Cons

  • Master data cleanup
  • A better overview on company relationships/subordinations/affiliations.
  • Improve details on new companies/startups connected to big Corporations (example: if Google opens a new start-up, it will probably have a low score on D&B, but actually 'they have Google as a guarantee', so their financial situation is not that bad as it could seem).
  • I am not able to estimate a direct effect. It surely helps on initially assessing if a new client may have the capacity to pay. So to know if the revenue recognition can be considered safe (cash collection probabilty > 75% according to US GAAP).
Quite strongly, as said it's the base of credit checks. If there is a new client, the process starts with D&B. The business decision on payment terms is taken also considering D&B rates.
Already explained with previous questions.
I don't have enough knowledge on this.
N/A - never contacted

Do you think D&B Finance Analytics delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with D&B Finance Analytics's feature set?

Yes

Did D&B Finance Analytics live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of D&B Finance Analytics go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy D&B Finance Analytics again?

Yes

I think it is well suited for Salespeople, AR/AP departments, Controllership. It is very good to find info on companies to understand if it is worth to start a business with. However some KPI should be improved, as often empty (e.g. yearly revenue and so on).
I find it less appropriate in context as Marketing or HR. It would be great to have at least some key company stakeholders names (maybe a partnership with Linkedin?).
