Overall Satisfaction with D&B Finance Analytics

Our attorneys have us run reports on prospective clients to check what their financial stress score, to determine habits of paying bills on time.
  • Allows an investigation if we feel there is not enough data on a company
  • Provides a visual score
  • Has a robust collection that rarely misses a company
  • The PDF'd report often does not show the same friendly view that is on the webpage. Seems some graphics are always missing. Maybe not the underlying data, but the graphics.
  • Graphics can sometimes look confusing upon delivery of the report.
  • You could use a full description at the end of the report that explains every sector, even it is blank for that sector. When someone asks for what all the sectors and scores mean, it took me a long time to do 5 to 10 screenshots. If guidance was available, I did not see it. It should be at the end of every report.
  • I cannot provide examples, but I have had attorneys tell me that the financial stress data has helped them retain clients, or to drop interest in clients.
We are often asked to run reports by our law firm.
Before coming to this firm, my prior firms only had access to D&B reports via Westlaw or Lexis. The delivered reports always looked terrible compared to what the was on the vendor screens. With a dedicated subscription at my current firm, reports are much better, although still could use improvement to visually mirror exactly what we see on the webpage.
I think I have used this feature once to figure out how to display descriptions of report sections. I was left with the impression that I had to do screens shots of all the descriptions and could no just give them a full description report to add to the Financial Report. .

Rarely misses finding data on a company. Offers a free follow-up investigation upon request. Sometimes the graphics on a delivered report look less appealing than the web page version.
