6sense vs. Vainu

6sense is best when we sell to a clear list of target accounts, and we want Sales and Marketing to focus on the right companies first. It works well for SDR daily prioritization, re-engaging accounts when they start researching again, and running ABM ads only to the accounts that matter and show intent. It is less appropriate when the business is mostly high-volume inbound leads, speed to contact matters more than account intent, the target market is very small, we already know every account, or we need perfect contact-level accuracy.

Vainu is the best software I have ever used for prospecting. It offers everything that we need for sale, prospecting and leads, and indeed really cost-effective. It's really a small investment when comparing what it can bring to your business. Vainu is not indispensable If you don't have an active selling team and continuous need for new prospects.

• I think one of my favorite features are the Bombora Surge topics, I'm able to take a topic that a segment is really highly active in and create an outbound sequence based on that, just targeting certain personas. Like on the buying committee, identifying activity. I can create an end-to-end campaign just with 6sense data.

• You save time and find right prospects as fast as possible.
• It's also easy to sort prospects by industry, revenue, digital foot print... etc.

• I would love to see more academy and certifications, availability, I think some easier, faster, easy, digestible courses to jump in. Certifications are great but they're very much focused on just those two certifications, so maybe more of a specialization focus on that side as well as some ways to kind of do a quick easy onboarding for first time users or those who have 6sense within their organization but don't know how to jump in and use it right away.

• Vainu has fixed all bugs we have reported. So no, can't really say what I dislike...

I love the tool, it makes everything we do more powerful and accurate. I'd shout it from the rooftops any day of the week. Using this tool will take your marketing efforts to the next level, no matter where you're starting from. No need to have prior experience with the tool for it to work for you

I gave this rating because I’ve spent hours upon hours training reps on 6sense. A lot of my trainings have been successful and the reps are now using the tool correctly. With that, I think the usability is overall strong. It isn’t complex once it is learned by the rep or admin, just takes some practice.

I've never noticed it being down but I rarely log into the web interface

Most of the time pages load quickly and the UX is great there are moments like every platform where it is laggy though

We hardly needed any support but in the initial days we got some had to contact support for the product understanding, the suppor t was prompt and they were very quick to resolve any issues. The support team is very helpful and gives a lot of importance to unresolved issues.

It was too fast, too complex, no one could follow along. If you miss a step, you're lost for the rest of the time and there is SO MUCH to learn and keep up with.

I wasn't involved but heard it was great

6sense sales team spent a lot more time with me building out a use case and example to take back to my team. I appreciated the support and felt confident in getting the help I needed to implement the tech.

Vainu contacted me 15 months ago. I had been looking for a good prospecting tool a long time before that. There wasn't any reason not to take the test! The introduction went well. We got guidance many times. Our new sales team members can still receive training from them if we want. They have been interested in our feedback.

Has been used by a few teams cross functionally and the scalability of this product is great as we continue to grow

• One of the big things, I think 6sense does a really good job is increasing the amount of pipeline that is generated within our organization. It's definitely one of the underrated things is I would say mental health, cold calling is very difficult. 6sense really makes it a lot easier to not stress out nearly as much going into these cold calls. Of course it is still going to happen, people are going to hang up, but I felt that people felt more confident going into these phone calls.
