Mediafly vs. Xactly Forecasting®

InsightSquared has been a great tool for quick reference dashboards for the whole organization and teams within the sales org. It presents a standardized individual dashboard for all the reps on the team. It doesn't fare well when trying to deep dive things like campaign and lead source inquiries, as well as activities associated with that opportunity.

When you are looking to see where the risk are and where the future will bring you, this is the tool for you! I can see this being a useful tool, however once I am in the groove I don't know how much I would use it. All in all I would say us it if you are in sales, it will improve your overall sight.

• The dashboard is amazing: easily customize your view so you can view all the data that is most relevant to you at a glance
• Sales metrics: see how you are comparing to your peers, from every possible angle. InsightSquared gathers all the data you need to know, want to know, and didn't even know you wanted!
• Predictive statistics and the likelihood of a deal to fail or succeed is quite useful in a sales environment where time efficiency is key. Need to know what deals to focus on? You can see exactly what deals need more TLC, which ones are likely to close, and which ones to stop wasting time on.

• Clean interface
• Organization of opportunities
• Decent customization

• I know this is something they have in process, but I would love to be able to customize reports myself. The support team is always super responsive and makes sure that we're taken care of. But, it would be great to just be able to log in and change the small things myself.
• I recently downloaded the InsightSquared app to my phone, and I'd like to see more functionality there. Currently. You are only able to see dashboards that have a already been created.

• Is only for opportunities.
• Difficult to bring in custom object.
• Some alert notifications were tough to configure

InsightSquared has been hugely beneficial to us, and to me in particular as someone outside of our sales team to gain insight into how our sales team and company is performing and how our overall health is. They offer fantastic customer support and have a great community to assist in your implementation of the product.

InsightSquared is easy to use overall. Running reports and creating dashboards is quick and easy - drag and drop functionality. All reports have multi-filter options allowing you to drill down into your data. Scorecards for employees help show how quickly a rep can start selling after they join your team. Activity ratios provide insight into what it takes from a KPI standpoint to close a deal.

I have had an excellent experience so far with Xactly Forecasting®.

Every time I go to use InsightSquared it has been available and fully functional

The Best

InsightSquared has a very responsive team, and always willing to help with reporting needs which are not able to be completed in house. They do offer a professional services team at an additional cost, so if your reporting is very complex, or you have a team that is continuously changing the type of metrics they require as a business, their support team will be an invaluable asset for you.

I was not involved in our purchasing of this platform, so comparing it is difficult. This being said, it's most similar to constantly running reports in Salesforce, probably. SFDC offers more flexibility, obviously, but InsightSquared offers better visualization, less report updating, and more features dedicated to making analytics more enjoyable. It's worth the cost of the platform to save your admin time in reporting.

Xactly Forecasting has a smart AI tool, this is what puts them ahead of the competition. With their smooth interaction with other apps and programs, it makes it seamless when using other apps and programs. I find that when it uses its forecasting skill it shows us exactly what we need to see for the future.

• Honestly, we cannot put a value on it. It's hard to know if it helped or hurt, but don't think it has helped.
