ZoomInfo SalesOS is a modern go-to-market platform for B2B companies. SalesOS helps find buyers based on an Ideal Customer Profiles (ICP), advanced company attributes, and accurate contact information in B2B. It is used to identify the next customer using data-driven insights and buying signals that reveal companies that are ready to buy.
LinkedIn Sales Navigator gives no way to contact leads once you've found them. ZoomInfo is powerful for information but not designed to reach out to leads efficiently.

Chose Hunter
I have used AnyMail Finder in the past. Hunter is more user-friendly and I stopped using AnyMail immediately.
Zoom is currently our go to platform for finding contact information and email addresses. It is much more expansive than Hunter but it's also much more expensive. The data is some of the best quality in the industry and included direct dial and mobile numbers. If you have the …
Hunter is a much more user-friendly version of Clearbit. I personally also find it to be more accurate than Clearbit. With Clearbit it felt like too many clicks to get to the information that you wanted. With Hunter, it is a simple copy - paste - click, to get the information …
Seamless is great, it is a bit more robust as it also includes phone numbers (personal line, office extensions, company line) Also, has CRM integration like Salesforce.
Hunter is easier to use but it would appear from the limited use of ZoomInfo that their product is more robust. However, it is a paid service so I don't feel it is an apples-to-apples comparison.
these old outdated products took way too long without the results. I had many times where I had wasted time with contact and only after reaching them did I find out they were the wrong contact all along. This was very frustrating and not a good use of time or resources.
ZoomInfo really excels in its usability. It has a really slick and intuitive user interface that makes it easy to get around. This also allows you to come up with ideas for different search criteria in order to find new companies that could be a good fit.
The scenario we most commonly use Hunter for is to quickly find and retrieve contact email information. Phone numbers are an added bonus, but they tend to only be available for contacts in the US. SDRs have the extension in order to confirm or to help them "guess" as to what a contact's email address might be. This speeds up our prospecting time considerably. Where Hunter falls short is not being flexible where companies have more than one email format.
ZoomInfo is well-suited for sales and marketing teams. The sales team can use it for research and prospecting, while marketing can use it for nurturing new prospects or previously prospected ones.Overall, ZoomInfo is a tool tailor-crafted for business and sales development teams. It helps them approach new prospects every day, even when contact numbers are not readily available.
Zoominfo provides us scoops regarding any new upcoming project or pain points (difficulties) facing by certain companies which helps a lot in our business to contact such companies.
Zoominfo gives us the exaction info such as email address, Direct or Cell phone number of particular contact which we want and we don't get anywhere except zoominfo
Zoominfo has huge database. Intent is one of the favorite section where we get the exact info about the companies/industries which we want
Zoominfo Connects with Hubspot which is another benefit for us to add any specific contact directly to our HubSpot app.
Hunter is only as valuable as the information it is able to scrape from the internet. If a company has not listed any email addresses online, then Hunter is not going to be able to find it.
Sometimes Hunter is only able to identify non-personal-specific email addresses (ex: info @, support@, etc.). This makes it difficult to identify personnel emails
Sometimes companies will have different email domains that Hunter is not able to correlate. For example, when searching for an email address at Lead.com, Hunter is not able to point to ParentCompany.com email addresses that would be more useful.
For initial users, the system can be a little overwhelming. A ZoomInfor SalesOS Basics guide could be beneficial to keep new users from feeling lost amongst all the options.
Clearer instructions on how to set targeted search parameters for inbound information would be beneficial.
With the combined resources of crowdsorced info on both data.com as well as the immediacy of info on LinkedIn, as well as intel on Hoovers, information provided on ZoomInfo is more readily available if you have the time to invest in looking for it. However, at the pace we do business, having a "one stop shop" for information is very convenient. On efficiency alone, ZoomInfo is worth the price of subscription considering our business model.
ZoomInfo is my go to service. This connected with Linkedin Recruiter has been an amazing tool to use in gaining some very useful and strong connections
We have been trying to get lead information on SalesTools and PLENTY, however, these two tools are mostly oriented to create follow-up campaigns and the setup is pretty complicated. If you are looking to create just a list of semi-qualified leads, you may try Hunter, but SalesTools has already an inner feature to build prospects in a better way.
The size of data base, the bounce rate and accuracy. The extra features that you can have and the customer service. Whenever I have a question or help with something, my account manager is always available to help. And most importantly, the difference was the price. Although Zoominfo is not cheapest, it is the best value for your money.
Negative - In my experience, exports error but credits deduct. Trying to get these credits back, good luck getting a customer service rep to assist.
Negative - In my experience, information provided for 0-5 employee companies inaccurate
Negative - In my opinion, due to not being able to get the information and not honoring their guarantee, no revenue goals were met.
Negative - I feel, for this size prospect, there is no time savings. You will still need to manually research the company on other sites or by cold calling to get the missing information.
