"Xactly Forecasting: Boosted Our Sales Accuracy and Team Collaboration!"
What do you like best about Xactly Forecast?

Xactly Forecasting has been a breath of fresh air for our sales team! We used to spend so much time on manual forecasting, and it always felt like we were guessing. Now, with Xactly’s AI-driven insights, we can see the data clearly, spot potential risks early, and make decisions with confidence. The tool is super intuitive, so it didn’t take long to get everyone on board. Plus, it’s helped us collaborate better as a team, which has made a big difference in how we approach our sales strategy. Overall, it’s been a huge boost to both our efficiency and accuracy! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xactly Forecast?

While Xactly Forecasting has a lot of strong features, there are a few areas that could be improved. The initial setup was a bit more complex than we anticipated, requiring some time to fully integrate with our existing systems. It also takes a little while to get used to all the functionalities, so the learning curve can feel steep at first. Additionally, while the AI insights are valuable, sometimes the data analysis feels a bit too reliant on historical patterns, which may not always reflect rapid market changes. But once you get past these hurdles, it does become a powerful tool for sales forecasting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Xactly Forecasting"
What do you like best about Xactly Forecast?

Xactly is a great tool to consolidate data from different CRM instances. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xactly Forecast?

User interface must be modernized and redisgned to be more user friendly. The company has to to redisign the process for manual forecat adjustments to allow instant sync. The tool is slow to refresh data. The tool also needs to have more flexibilitiy to adjust out-of-the-box solution and map it appropriately to customer needs. Health Score must be modernized and redesigned and must be more predictive and must allow for "if" statements. Reports design must be modernized as well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Feels like an extended beta."
What do you like best about Xactly Forecast?

It is better than SalesForce or other manual looks at data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xactly Forecast?

Difficulty logging in, information not coherently organized, interface confusing. Pop-up windows intefering with views of data. Too much left/right scrolling and not customizable enough. Pipeline "Flowlitics" still in beta and probably deserving of that title. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Quality tool, accurate rev forecasting"
What do you like best about Xactly Forecast?

You have quite a bit of data at your fingertips - but it doesn;'t feel overwhelming at all. Because of the platform's capacity to slice data by segment, it really feels as though you don't need to spend any more time within the platform than necessary. You can find information about sales by virtually any segment, without diving sub-report after sub-report to get there. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xactly Forecast?

Small item here, but I think, in some places, the UI can be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Xactly Forecast?

The positive aspects are that activities are reflected as a health score and that multiple forecast figures are presented. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Xactly Forecast?

However, I would like the logic behind the forecast figures to be more sophisticated and generated automatically from past data. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
