Equifax Credit Risk Insight helps lenders build models help monitor delinquency, default, loss severity and mortgage borrower credit health trends at the loan level, across zip codes, vintages and market segments.
D&B provides insight into the viability of a customer who is looking for open terms and large orders on credit. It helps us determine the risk when lending to customers with whom we don't have much history. It's also helpful to see what types of liens/lawsuits they have pending at a given time.
Equifax Credit Risk is great for getting consumer credit reports online, pre-filled business reports online, and sometimes searching for corporate reports online. Equifax Credit Risk is not suitable for cases where the customer provides the credit application requesting to update banking and business reference information.
Finding Companies through Search or Advanced Search. It's got an easy search bar. And then for example, we have companies all over the world that come to us. And so we can just choose the country, for example, and then write the name in there and it'll bring up a lot of different companies that maybe are exactly that name or close to that name. And when we see what we believe to be the actual company, we can click on it and then know whether they are credit worthy.
Great UX on the website - fast and easy to use. The speed with which it operates is really terrific and very important for us because we usually have to make that decision right away.
Using something as objective as a numerical score simplifies decisions about offering credit. We have to make a decision usually on whether to offer credit to an advertiser quickly. So what's wonderful about the process is that we don't have to be searching around on Google or any kind of review site and then try to discern whether they're credit worthy. We simply open up the D&B Finance Analytics tool.
D&B Finance Analytics reports have just about everything. You can see a full company profile including legal forms, history records, employee count, years in business, paydex scores, delinquency scores, viability ratings, state of incorporations, naics codes, CEO or business owner names, etc. There is a lot that pulls up in this report
I would you rate the D&B Finance Analytics's overall usability a 9 because it is super easy to use. The only reason for a 9 is there are a lot of features that I didn't realize were there and was not sure how to actually use them or what kind of information I could get
This is a great resource for us on the sales and accounting side of our company. The graphs and ratings based on Paydex, Failure Score, and Delinquency Score are so useful. This tool has endless ways to help a company be protected against things that can be damaging to their financial situation.
The online training was worth it. We did an online training with our team and an account rep from D&B. They walked us through the entire interface and answered all of our questions.
Our team in Canada uses Equifax instead. However we find that they're often asking us to pull data and reporting from D&B instead. D&B's Finance Analytics data is more detailed, easier to use, and can quickly be saved & shared. This makes is easy and FAST for our business to make more informed decisions. D&B blows the competition away even from an international perspective.
Equifax Credit Risk has a quick platform that is constantly evolving with the objective of benefiting the direct client, reducing response time to the end client. I like that its platform is easy to use and very intuitive. It is very secure because it uses different confirmation methods to log in with your users each time they need to log in.
Reducing risk by pointing out potential issues at the outset
Hard quantification of certain metrics, in particular the Paydex stat, as well as failure and delinquency likelihood.
Assists with lowering DSO (sorry, no hard figures available) by letting us know when there is a potential issue from the beginning, or when we update our records.
