Connecting the Five Phases of Intelligent Revenue Optimization

The cornerstone of Xactly lies in the five pillars that compose the unified Intelligent Revenue Platform. Let’s take a closer look at each pillar and how it contributes to the holistic approach to revenue optimization:

1. Xactly Incent

Even the most solid incentive programs can fall short without effective administration, accurate calculations, and comprehensive visibility for Revenue teams. Xactly's incentive compensation management (ICM) solutions bring together industry-leading, award-winning prepackaged ICM functionality. The scalability of these solutions ensures the delivery of top-tier incentive administration, commission accounting, and management by objectives, all tailored to the most complex requirements.

2. Xactly Forecast

Xactly empowers organizations to utilize the full potential of their revenue data by providing real-time pipeline insights that enhance planning processes and identify performance trends by territory or segment. With Xactly Forecast, businesses can gain a deeper understanding of the efficacy of their incentive programs and elevate their forecasting confidence year after year.

3. Xactly Plan

Sales and revenue planning demands in-depth analysis and many critical activities essential for go-to-market success. Xactly Plan offers prepackaged territory planning functionality that’s extensible to cater to a company’s quota and capacity planning needs. This unified solution harnesses data from across a business's revenue ecosystem, allowing organizations to create strategic and operational plans with precision.

4. Xactly Design

Incentive design has historically been a complex process involving numerous stakeholders and diverse opinions on how to motivate Go-to-market teams best and define achievable quotas. Xactly Design simplifies this process by utilizing historical performance data, over 20 years of benchmarking data, and a user-friendly simulation engine. This allows businesses to test hypotheses and determine impacts with ease — streamlining and deepening the incentive design process.

5. Xactly Manage

The role of RevOps experts in navigating the complexities of assigning territories, quotas, and roles is paramount. Xactly Manage offers territory and quota management solutions that empower RevOps experts to streamline operations and pivot swiftly when necessary. With agile workflows and instantaneous collaboration, Xactly ensures that enterprises’ sales strategies are always in sync with their evolving business goals.
