Vividly gets trade spend. Their software and industry knowledge brought our team very quickly to a much more detailed, intuitive, and insightful place. I cannot be happier and am very excited for us to use Vividly going into 2021.

President, Jovial

Vividly has allowed Lily’s to efficiently create and track promotion activity with direct and indirect accounts. Not only do we have better visibility to retailer level trade rates, we are able to tighten our accrual expense based on historical views of promotional activity. Vividly has provided us the internal controls we were missing which are permission structure and contract compliance. Questions? The embedded intercom app provides comfort to those in our organization that aren’t tech-savvy individuals.

Director of BI, Lily's

The more we grow, the more we need a means of efficiently and effectively planning, tracking and analysing our promotion activity. Vividly offers a strong toolset that streamlines the process, helps us stretch every dollar as far as it will go, and gives us the firm control we need over trade spend.

Director of Finance, Simple Mills

Vividly provided us the ability to scan 100+ pages of larger retailer scan and coupon bill backs and quickly built out the ability of scanning a completely new back-up source we had trouble with. With its quick turn around time on implementation and development, we are now able to much more easily reconcile our top retailers’ trade spend.
