Overall Satisfaction with Xactly Commission Expense Accounting (CEA)

Xactly CEA is allowing us to be in compliance with ASC606 without having an additional person calculating commissions and maintaining a massive spreadsheet.

Pros

  • Amortization & capitalization.
  • Follow set rules defining when/how certain payments are expensed.

Cons

  • Formatting of some reports in Excel isn't ideal when exported.
  • Expense rules are on the back end which requires asking support to update (although these are handled quickly).
  • Prevented adding an additional head.
  • Easy way to comply with ASC606.
CEA was easy to use, easy to implement, and at the right price.
CEA is well suited for small and rapidly growing companies where manually calculating commissions expense for ASC606 is not an option due to a lack of internal resources. CEA is less appropriate for larger companies that have the resources and likely a person, or people, who only focus on commissions.

Xactly CEA Implementation

Go into implementation knowing how you will handle churn, if there are claw backs, treatment for every type of commission payment (i.e. new business, renewals, etc.) and know your average customer life. You'll also want details by customer for as far back as you can go (within reason).
