Sales uses it to understand their pay and finance and sales ops use the analytics to provide information to our leadership to drive better decisions.

Yes

Are you happy with Xactly Incent®'s feature set?

Yes

Did Xactly Incent® live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Xactly Incent® go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Xactly Incent® again?

Yes

It's well suited for a company that wants a user-friendly and accurate commissions software to support their sales team. In my current company we don't use the Connect functionality to automatically get the data, but that ability to get information directly from Salesforce and other sources is great. I think if you have very one-off exception heavy plans, you won't get as much benefit from Incent (or any other commissions system).

Using Xactly Incent

We just renewed and like the tool, however the Support side can be frustrating to work with and take longer than it should.

I wasn't part of the decision here so I can't speak to the most important factor.

Xactly Incent Implementation

No, I wasn't apart of the implementation at this company.

Xactly Incent Support

It is a difficult system with more like back and forth messaging. I can't see tickets that others on my team have logged. It can be hard to get a real human answer or help.
