Data management

Schedule a relationship management-focused demo with our team today!

 

Dealmakers in the current capital markets ecosystem need robust data management solutions. Thanks to a constantly evolving market and increasing competition, it’s vital that professionals and firms keep their data organized in order to focus their efforts on deals, strategy, and relationships. Prioritizing, protecting, and properly analyzing the large quantities of data that private equity, investment banks, debt providers, and other capital markets firms manage can be a challenge. With DealCloud — the leading global capital markets CRM solution — data management can be drastically simplified.

 

Implementing a generic, industry-agnostic CRM system — one that isn’t built with capital market professionals in mind — often only meets a portion of your firm’s needs and becomes a roadblock to success in an increasingly competitive market. DealCloud’s deal management and capital markets CRM technology helps dealmakers focus their efforts in order to deliver on results, based on the firm’s proprietary and third-party data.

 

DealCloud recognizes the importance of building a single source of truth for dealmakers that’s purpose-built for complex, ever-evolving, and robust data sets. Sync your third-party data— leveraging providers such as Pitchbook, FactSet, Preqin, S&P Global and more — to the DealCloud platform to build a bridge that seamlessly connects all of your data, and all of the people who manage that data, within a single solution. Automate and audit existing data with ease and rest easy knowing your data is housed in one centralized, secure solution.

 

In addition to centralizing your firm’s data all in one place, DealCloud software provides the data management tools and functionality you need to keep data clean, accurate, and organized. We recognize that, regardless of firm size, migrating data from one platform to another can be challenging, as can implementing top tier data governance and stewardship programs. At DealCloud, we’ve aligned our entire organization around these common pain points and, as a result, we have the product capabilities, client support, and training capabilities to ensure you can achieve expert data management programs.

 

To learn more about how DealCloud’s data management solution can do more than a traditional CRM, schedule a demo.

DealCloud data management features

Deduplication and entry merging

DealCloud’s easy-to-use Merge Entries tool helps maintain strong data across the firm so you can combine metadata and references from multiple entries into a single entry — eliminating duplicate records for a single entry or at scale.

Data cleanliness reports

 DealCloud offers data cleanup dashboards you can leverage to pursue cleaner, more actionable data. These dashboards break down various important pieces of missing or incomplete data in a given list, profile, report, widget, or other area of your firm’s CRM.

Data centralization

DealCloud makes it easy for capital markets professionals to house their contacts, activities, and any other critical data in one place. With these advantages, dealmakers can better manage relationships, execute on transactions, and expand their portfolios.

Revert changes

 At DealCloud, we know mistakes happen. That’s why our platform allows certain users to leverage deletion logs. Leaders can see the date records were deleted, the user who made the deletion, its source, the affected list, and the number of deleted entities. When needed, users can undelete the record(s).

 

Bulk edit

In the capital markets, deals move fast. Sporting intuitive spreadsheet functionality, DealCloud users can add, delete, filter, reorder, swap, view, hide columns, and add data quickly — all of which will be immediately applied across a user’s or firm’s DealCloud instance.

Data import and export

When your firm becomes a DealCloud client, a meaningful implementation process imports only the most valuable data into your CRM. From there, your firm can configure rules and permissions that enable greater data cleanliness and reduced risk of data loss, defining who can import data, export data, and at what frequency.

 

DealCloud differentiators

Unlike traditional CRMs, DealCloud is built to serve private equity, investment banking, and other capital markets firms’ data management needs. Our technology solution centralizes your firm’s disorganized proprietary and third-party data, transforming it into meaningful intelligence, all while providing dealmakers with built-in tools that make it easy to update, edit, import, export, and leverage their intelligence. Customize your notifications and automate your pipeline reporting with predictive insights via email, web, and mobile interfaces delivered at the cadence you prefer.

 

Update your permissions and tailor DealCloud on a user-by-user basis so every individual gets the appropriate tools and views they need for their role. Streamline the identification and management of conflicts of interest and avoid reputation-damaging regulatory infractions with our conflicts management solution.
