• What-if commission calculator: allows sales reps to view expected commission instantly, based on real-time calculation of plans in the production system. 
• Top-down and bottom-up territory and quota management: enable the validation of quotas and territories against large historic data sets, to rapidly assess the implication of changes.
• Next generation coaching: enables the implementation of a collaborative, guided coaching process to increase productivity and effectivity of sales reps.
