Considered Both Products
Clari
Chose Clari
Clari is incredible compared to just using SFDC, helps augment the service to another level
Chose Clari
At the time of selection, Clari was a more mature product than Xactly forecasting. We did not want to experience growing pains with Xactly.

Pipeline Inspection from SFDC was just becoming available. We had already selected Clari before we learned about Pipeline Inspection.
Chose Clari
We also use sales force in our office, the management thinks sales force at times does not give better prediction like clari. As per me both the tools are at par with each other. And the best part if integration of sales force to clari, the only challenge I have is about …
Chose Clari
Clari Revenue Platform is a robust sales management solution that offers a range of features and capabilities designed to improve sales performance and forecasting. When compared to similar products, Clari stands out in several areas:
  1. Data integration:Clari integrates with a …
Chose Clari
Clari was selected due to the flawless integration with salesforce, updates are made in real time. Being able to monitor everything at a scalable level has also been critical for our team. For example, we have different views established that show the rep level, manager level, …
Chose Clari
I have not used other forecasting tools other than the built-in functions in Salesforce, Gong, and Outreach. I think that the benefit of Clari against these other tools that almost any Sales organization has is that their whole focus is on forecasting and visibility into your …
Chose Clari
Have evaluated Clari against Outreach. Outreach has a much simpler UI and is very easy to use, and it is also famous amongst sales teams for campaigns, deals tracking and analysis. However, Clari's deal analytics and forecasting is way too superior than Outreach and dasboarding …
Chose Clari
Clari is heads and tails above Microsoft Excel when it comes to forecasting and tracking the numbers for both sales and management. It's not even close.
Chose Clari
Actually, Clari complete what salesforce is providing to my organization, both tools together are integrating to make our business planning cycle much more controlled and visible.
Chose Clari
I've only used Salesforce prior to Clari
Chose Clari
i don't have any insight on this one. I am not familiar with Clari competitors and am a user rather than a purchasing decision maker.
Clari seems like a predominant solution in this category. Perhaps some orgs just stick to a CRM tool like SFDC reporting rather than investing …
Chose Clari
Even if I don’t have some experience with Datahug, this platform doesn’t have an excellent end-user experience as Clari. Also, Clari has simple integration with Sales Apps, mobile application and notifications work very well, and is faster than Datahug. Reports are more …
Chose Clari
Clari is a salesperson's view on their book of business in an easy, yet defined way.
Chose Clari
Clair is additive to other tools like Salesforce or your BI tools. It gives great visibility at each level. We know throughout the quarter where we are likely to fall. When we have shortfalls we know where those are coming from. This helps us drive the right actions to close …
Chose Clari
The only other tool that we use that is close to the Clari offering is SFDC. The nice thing about Clari is how easy and quick it is to make changes to your forecast without having to go through all of the required steps in SFDC. The mobile app is also extremely useful and …
Chose Clari
Haven't used anything like Clari in the past, this is a game changer. SFDC does a great job of showing you your forecast but lacks the insights that Clari provides.
Chose Clari
The only other funnel management we have is SalesForce itself. We've made some adjustments within our own SalesForce platform, but Clari is significantly easier to navigate for funnel management than deals individually within SFDC.
Chose Clari
Not familiar with other products in the quote to close space. I have not used others, as Clari has been our first and we have been very pleased with it, so I have had no need to evaluate other competitors to it.
Chose Clari
Clari is MUCH better for reps to use/consume than the other products we've attempted. While the other tools we've used have been a bit better from a Sales Ops perspective, if they don't get used by the sales team, they are not nearly as powerful. Adoption of the tool really …
Chose Clari
Clari was able to start generating advanced analytics within 3-4 hours after connecting to our Salesforce data and immediately in opportunity data. With Birst, there was some implementation needed, IT setup and configuration and some additional training for admins and advance …
Chose Clari
Clari is the only forecasting tool we looked at.
Chose Clari
Clari's UI was easy for our sales team and customer success team to use and to adapt and utilise effectively. The Pipeline Management of Clari provides real-time insights into our sales pipeline, enabling us to track progress in real time and make correct decisions.
We selected …
Chose Clari
The only other forecasting tool I've used is Salesforce, and Clari comes out on top without a doubt. It's way more user friendly and I love the user interface.
Chose Clari
Clari is the most user-friendly platform in my opinion, and I've had the best customer service experience with my support team. Clari has continued to prove its ROI after each sub-platform we've implemented, and has built trust and adoption from the AEs to C-Level mgmt.
Tableau Cloud
Chose Tableau Cloud
Tableau CLoud is much more user friendly and easy to use.
Chose Tableau Cloud
Tableau Cloud is ery powerful and user friendly with minimal cost when compared with other BI tools.Its robust features like switching toggles, supporting SQL queries for buiding charts and all stands out as the best.It reduces time in creating difficult and complex dashbords …
Chose Tableau Cloud
Tableau Cloud offers easier ways to make the content browsable by users. It also offers more flexible ways to set up self-service governance. Standard filtering functionalities are easier to use.
Chose Tableau Cloud
It seems more robust then the other platforms. There is a lot you can do from merging many different data sets together by joining them at like points, to creating visualizations of the data, or by showcasing some important data to any number of people within your organization. …
Chose Tableau Cloud
Tableau has a way easier Intuitive UI compare to Power BI or Amplitude. AMplitude is great since anyone could create their own dashboard, but building it it's a different thing.
Chose Tableau Cloud
When weighing the pros and cons of Tableau Online vs. SAP ERP, two key considerations emerged as clear winners. SAP ERP is a powerful data purification tool, but it doesn't measure up to the competition in terms of data presentation. When it came to data visualization and …
Chose Tableau Cloud
In my opinion, while Microsoft Power BI is a bit easier to build reports and dashboards with in part to its shared traits and connectivity with other Microsoft products, Tableau Online allows for a greater depth of customization, data sourcing, and most of all the sharing of …
Chose Tableau Cloud
Google Analytics is better for ad-hoc reporting but it's easier to create a uniform, standardized portfolio of reports in Tableau Online. We still use Google Analytics from time to time for quicker data requests.
Chose Tableau Cloud
In determining whether to go with Tableau Online versus Alteryx, two important factors stood out in determining our go-to solution. First, while Alteryx is an impressive tool for data cleansing, it did not stack up in terms of data visualization capabilities. Tableau, on the …
Chose Tableau Cloud
Googles dashboard suite is very user-friendly and anyone can edit and make changes with very little knowledge or practice. But nothing I’ve worked with compares to the customization and multi streams of data in a user-friendly package like tableau does. It’s a really cool piece …
Chose Tableau Cloud
Prior to Tableau [Online], we were using complicated excel formulas and reports that were prone to break or were not easy to format. We used a few free tools before moving forward with Tableau. The free tools also had limitations but we found that the reports, ease of use …
Chose Tableau Cloud
We selected Tableau Online as it was more easy to integrate it with our SaaS platform and get going in no time. It is much more intuitive, easy, and quick to create dashboards using Tableau than other competitors. Also the pricing provided by Tableau to us was very competitive …
Chose Tableau Cloud
I do like to still use Google Analytics for certain things, because its faster to do it in Google Analytics rather than build the report I need in Tableau. While it's helpful, we just don't have the bandwidth as an organization to be able to create every report we would need on …
Chose Tableau Cloud
  • Breadth of services offered is good with Tableau Online
  • Tableau Online offers advanced analytics and visualisations with easy implementation
Chose Tableau Cloud
Tableau Online provides better data visualizations (especially when comparing out of the box visualizations that are available) than MS Power BI and historically we have connected more of our data sources to Tableau vs. other platforms like Google analytics.
Chose Tableau Cloud
Microsoft Dynamics is the only other product I have interacted with that is similar to Tableau Online. I receive reports from Microsoft Dynamics on a weekly basis. I receive really valuable statistics that help me realize how I am interacting through email. Dynamics send me …
Chose Tableau Cloud
[My selection was more determined] by the legacy files from the previous data scientists who build the dashboard with Tableau rather than I decided to choose Tableau from all other options.
Chose Tableau Cloud
Tableau provides more robust system to perform data analytics as compared to the alternatives like Power BI and Qlik. Moreover, Tableaus is super simple to use and is very reliable in terms of its connection with databases. The ability to manipulate data is another big reason …
Chose Tableau Cloud
We used to use an internal tracking platform, and it wasn't nearly as reliable or accurate as Tableau Online. Tableau Online has way more functionality and is able to report on so many more metrics that our old platform was unable to.
Chose Tableau Cloud
There are lots of excellent products are available in market for data analysis like SAP BusinessObjects, IBM Cognos, Microstrategy Analytics, Microsoft Power BI, etc. I found other products are specific to their tools like SAP BusinessObjects suits great with SAP Products …
Chose Tableau Cloud
I don't have direct experience with any of Tableau's competitors, such as Qlik, Domo, Looker or Zoomdata. With that said, I can't imagine any of the aforementioned entities having an offering that is far superior to Tableau. The intuitiveness and overall performance speak for …
Chose Tableau Cloud
Tableau has a capacity to connect to a number of data providers, and it is very easy to get connected to data sources and use all the objects that create dashboards. Customized visualizations are very easy to create. Tableau, generally speaking, has calculations and other types …
Chose Tableau Cloud
We have really enjoyed Tableau for our company. The pricing is a bit higher but the functionality is a lot better for our needs.

Likelihood to Recommend
It's well-suited for sales and customer service processes where the intent is both to sell the product and give customer or technical service post-sale. It is best to search for calls with different phrases. However, as far as I am concerned, it is less suitable for processes that are not defined. Like sales inbound, where we may not know the conversation direction.

If you're using Tableau as the primary BI tool, then Tableau Cloud is well suited to publish and share the results with a wide(r) audience. It is well suited for various degrees of self-service proficiency, from pure consumers of analytical work to more advanced users who can use web editing for smaller or larger adjustments, and even for desktop power users who will publish their work to Tableau Cloud. It has many good ways to organize the content and make it easily accessible via search, favorites, folders, collections ("playlists for your data"), or history ("recents"). It might not be ideally suited if there are many on-prem sources to be used (even though there are options to connect them) or if you have very special requirements regarding custom server setup, which is limited in a shared cloud environment like Tableau Cloud.

Pros
  • Sales pipeline management: Clari provides real-time visibility into the sales pipeline, enabling sales teams to track the progress of deals and make informed decisions.
  • Revenue forecasting: The platform integrates with existing sales and marketing tools, giving organizations a comprehensive view of their sales pipeline and enabling accurate revenue forecasting.
  • Advanced analytics: Clari uses machine learning and advanced analytics to provide actionable insights into sales performance and help organizations make informed decisions about their sales strategy.

  • Tableau Online is completely cloud based and that's why the reports and dashboards are accessible even on the go. One doesn't always need to access the office laptop to access the reports.
  • The visualizations are interactive and one can quickly change the level at which they want to view the information. For example, one person might be more interested in looking at the country level performances rather than client level. This is intuitive and one doesn't need to create multiple reports for the same.
  • The feature to ask questions in plain vanilla English language is great and helpful. For quick adhoc fact checks one can simply type what they are looking for and the Natural Language Programming algorithms under the hood parse the query, interpret it and then fetch the results accordingly in a visual form.

Cons
  • When there is maintenance done in the backend our total numbers disappear so would be great to not impact production environment when doing improvements on the backend
  • I think Clari can train more the champions at customer to drive utilisation rates in your customers
Read full review
  • Can be a steep learning curve for new users
  • Modeling and building algorithms aren't always intuitive and take some testing/retesting to ensure it's working as it should
  • Inability to integrate easily with our HRIS platform. Reports are pulled from HRIS at various intervals and uploaded into Tableau

Likelihood to Renew
I will renew my Clari Subscription for many reasons. 1. Streamlines Sales - Clari automates many manual tasks like note-taking and transcripts. This frees my sales team so they can focus on closing deals. 2. Increased customer retention - Clari helps me identify potential churn risks and take proactive measures. 3. AI-Driven Insights

Usability
Clari is very good when it comes to usability as I'm accessing it on daily basis as long as I'm on my Notebook, it helps a lot having visibility on my business status and progress on achievement. I can estimate my weekly, monthly, and yearly opportunities closure and revenue. I have some saved views which are so useful to get what I want to see.

From an end user perspective Tableau Online is overall very easy to navigate once you get used to it, my only complaint is that when expanding or contracting a graph, the "plus" and "minus" on the bottom left is sometimes hidden, and should always be visible. From a builder perspective, it can take some getting used to but the sheer depth of customization makes it all worthwhile.

Clari is very willing to jump in and build out use cases. They will work to do anything for you. That said, their follow up is not great. We have had to reach out for follow up several times on a project, which is still not complete. I wish they taught us how to complete what we want, rather than doing it in house for us

I have no had a lot of experience with the support team, but I know that it’s hardly necessary for the end-user to contact. Usually, the main questions I get are on how to read a certain dashboard or how to navigate to a certain place. Overall, the simplicity of the software is what helps out with less need for support.

Gainsight was clunky. We had a dashboard for CS renewals but it was difficult to update. If you typed something and didn't save, and you started updating another opportunity's notes, your previous notes would not save. With Clari it auto saves

When weighing the pros and cons of Tableau Online vs. SAP ERP, two key considerations emerged as clear winners. SAP ERP is a powerful data purification tool, but it doesn't measure up to the competition in terms of data presentation. When it came to data visualization and analytics, Tableau was our go-to tool. The price is the second consideration. Tableau, on the other hand, was the more cost-effective option for our requirements.

Return on Investment
  • I no longer spend hours reconciling spreadsheets or guessing which opportunities are real - Clari shows me exactly where to focus to drive results.
  • I have consistently hit my quota the last 3 quarters thanks to Clari's precision and detailed insights.

  • No need to hire a team of developers to deliver our product, a huge cost savings for a start up company.
  • The ability to work off data extracts allows us to "set in and forget it" so to speak, which allows our customers to use the system during business hours with almost no cost in terms of database usage.
  • It has been a great internal tool for dashboarding company metrics and helping us track goals and implement solutions to meet those goals through efficient data analysis.
