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 …

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.
Zoho Analytics
Chose Zoho Analytics
Zoho Analytics has the best UI and user friendly to create reports and dashboard along with features like Zia Assistance that guide in creating reports and dashboard and also help in the forecasting of the data based on the past records.
Chose Zoho Analytics
Easy integration and the environment which we use is also Zoho Analytics
Chose Zoho Analytics
Compared to Qlik BI, Power BI, and Tableau, Zoho is a very economical option. It still manages to perform and proves to serve on par with the other mentioned software. It only lacks popularity, which is why not many people are using it. Zoho Analytics is a solid option for BI.
Chose Zoho Analytics
Our team, which is just one decision-maker for this kind of thing, evaluated the different offerings and presented us with the options. I'm sure he considered more than the three above, but I remember him talking about those 3. He explained what he thought would be best and …
Chose Zoho Analytics
Looker is more of a database. Build your own customization data sets and reporting. At the same time, Looker's forecasting tool seems more accurate. I like Zoho's visual analytics of the data more. Zoho is better for presenting the data to others, while Looker is more raw data, …
Chose Zoho Analytics
Zoho Analytics is more user-friendly than Sisense. It offers an intuitive, drag-and-drop interface that makes it easier for non-technical users to create reports and dashboards. Additionally, its pricing is highly competitive compared to Sisense, making it a more cost-effective …
Chose Zoho Analytics
The cost for the functionality is considerably lower than the other tools that I considered. While the other tools offer advanced functionality above anything Zoho Offers - I do not require the advanced features that would justify the additional investment
Chose Zoho Analytics
Zoho CRM is more useful for our Org do to the instant data sync, however the report customization is far more superior in analytics.
Chose Zoho Analytics
Since we use Zoho Forms, it's way easier for us to integrate Zoho Analytics with Zoho Forms. We can easily connect Zoho Forms as a data source and setup a chart view without any unecessary manual intervention.
Chose Zoho Analytics
Besides using analytics, we’ve used spreadsheets like Excel to observe data and play with it. That’s good, but it lacks many of the visualization, access, and security functions that analytics provides for our team. Zoe does a great job of scalability and is definitely much …
Chose Zoho Analytics
Over 5 years ago, I started down a path to use Tableau as an analytics tool and quickly became dismayed--- it was hard enough to translate all the entity relationships from Zoho CRM and Zoho Desk (and software we used before that) into Tableau. Even worse, as an agile small …
Chose Zoho Analytics
While Tableau may have more versatility and visual appeal, it requires the addition of a database to store all the data you want to report on, is more complex to get setup and working correctly, and is also more expensive overall. Zoho Analytics is an all in one package …
Chose Zoho Analytics
Other Analytic softwares doesn't provide half of the features that Zoho Analytics provides, and they are not that cheap too, Making custom reports seems very easy in Zoho Analytics but found hard in other software's, and UI is easy to understand, Also Zoho Analytics provide all …
Chose Zoho Analytics
Azure Analysis Services, Google Analytics and Microsoft Power BI
Chose Zoho Analytics
It's much better to use Zoho Analytics than Google Sheets because the reports are much more scalable, don't crash, and load faster. The only thing we miss about Google Sheets was how easy it was to write custom formulas -- Zoho Analytics's custom formula building could be a …
Chose Zoho Analytics
Due to multiple features and more customizable dashboards, you can make which are not present in other platforms which I have compared during purchase time. Even further you can format the dashboard as per your choice which is another best features since we have to share our …
Chose Zoho Analytics
The integration functionality was so much slicker with Zoho Analytics. They've made it easy to reach out to 3rd party apps as well as other Zoho apps to bring the data all into one place.
Chose Zoho Analytics
There are many relevant features available in the other competitors product, but the uniqueness with Zoho Analytics it has lot of custom reports, and various chart/graph at its own scale.
Chose Zoho Analytics
Zoho Analytics is better in form of costing and pricing. The package is cheaper. The firm being large, small cap or mid cap, Zoho Analytics can help them provide accurate analytics and details. Customized graphical representation can be created which is easy to understand and …

We used Yellowfin for 1 year and it really doesn't compare to Zoho Analytics because it doesn't have the native integration with ManageEngine's tools and the customization is more technical, Zoho Analytics lets you create dashboards automatically, immediately when you connect …

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.

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

  • I'm guessing it's out there somewhere but I really could have used a 'quick start guide' or guided start.
  • Once I figured it out, it makes sense how to make sure the right data is provided in order to make dashboards quite flexible--- but without examples, I found it quite a challenge
  • The initial organization of Analytics is NOT intuitive. Once in context, the organizational features make sense, but (at least initially) it would have been most useful if the organization of Analytics reports in Zoho Analytics had saved me a lot of time.

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.

For an end user, Zoho Analytics is pretty easy to use and very easy to access the dashboard. Linking data from multiple sources is very convenient. Multiple people can work on preparing and publishing the dashboards simultaneously, which helps delegate tasks.

Reliability and Availability

ZOHO is a very reliable company/product. We never had any issues with downtime or inaccessibility to our data. Any type of maintenance that they had to perform was clearly communicated and never an issue. We use a lot of external hooks and we've never had any issues with getting ZOHO to communicate with any of those hooks.

ZOHO has obviously invested a lot of time effort and money in to creating a reliable infrastructure with high availability. We've never had any issues with performance and all of our data crunching small to large has always been well within reason. We have come to appreciate the performance of ZOHO and will continue to use it for all of our data needs.

Support Rating
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

If your external data sources are previously organized and correlated (e.g.: in your datawarehouse or database) your implementation will be easier. Of cource some not previously predicted correlation would be necessary to be done during the implementation, but if your organization let it to be all done into Zoho Analytics, it will take more time from your team.

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

The system appears to handle large data volumes from different platforms and present the information in a standard format. While the information is helpful, the insight and analytics are very interesting and provide a return on investment. The next part is how the users use that data insight to make decisions.

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.

  • Zoho Analytics has dramatically impacted the time we spend creating reports. We probably save 20+ hours per month.
  • Due to the tight integration with the rest of the Zoho platform, we don't have to manually import data; it just shows up for us.
  • Having some of these reports in our pocket is great when the owner wants to see something, and we're not in the office. I love the mobile app and the ability to see reports on the phone.
