Overall Satisfaction with D&B Finance Analytics

D&B Analytics has been a game-changer for us. Their team developed a "Custom Score" algorithm that pulls in tons of data to create a score for each new prospect that comes to us, between 1 and 10. If the company scores above that number, credit terms are offered. If they score below that number, it's cash in advance. Simple, fast and accurate. I don't know what we did without it before we started using it.
  • Custom Scores
  • Finding Companies through Search or Advanced Search
  • Great UX on the website - fast and easy to use
  • Using something as objective as a numerical score simplifies decisions about offering credit
  • There are several steps required before getting to the custom score - it would be nice to have a shortcut to that feature
  • Makes decision-making about offering credit fact-based rather than emotional
100%. I couldn't imagine trying to make a rational decision about offering credit terms without this tool. It has become indispensable to our being able to offer credit terms on behalf of the podcast networks.
We had a team help us to implement the creation of our Custom Score. This process involves weighting various factors such Paydex scores, liens or lawsuits and several others. Their team guided us through the entire process so we didn't have to figure it out ourselves.

Last year, I recall that we had a prospective advertiser demand credit terms or they wouldn't do business with us. I checked their Custom Score and it was 'below the line' so I rejected credit terms and said if they wanted to advertise with us, they would need to pay cash in advance. They blew a fuse but I said the numbers are the numbers. So, it was easy to defend the decision.
