Apollo.io vs. DealRoom

When I need to find people in my specific niche to reach out to, Apollo helps me find these leads that I would not have been able to see before. I have not been able to dive deeper into the other features of Apollo yet, but I am sure they would be invaluable for most.

Well suited for projects where a large number of files need to be securely exchanged with clients. Not very suitable if the engagement does not involve heavy data exchange. We have used it in multiple M&A and due diligence projects and it works like a charm. I strongly recommend DealRoom

• Consolidates tool and packs in a lot of functionality
• Keeps up with the industry trends for prospecting and data enrichment
• Offers the basics you need to get going
• Account mapping to Salesforce - reps can prospect in Apollo and can easily toggle on views to only see their own accounts.

• Fixed cost pricing is unique and refreshing. Saves headache and worry throughout the process and with the client.
• Internal Diligence Tracking through the requests feature is a game-changer. Prevents inefficient excel trackers and unnecessary emails throughout the process.
• GUI and interface are clean and easy to use.
• Customer support and response to inquires is timely and helpful.

• Their reliability has been an issue for our team. The product has been down multiple times since I've been a user.
• Some times prospects titles/roles are out of date, so keeping up with those a bit more would be helpful during sourcing
• I've received a lot of spam calls that are completely irrelevant to me, but it comes down to an issue on their side with using so many numbers from different area codes. This was a major pain in the beginning, but has subsided a bit.

• DealRoom doesn't currently have an option for automatic weekly user analytics. I hope to see this feature implemented soon.
• The software is easy to use, as mentioned before, however, utilizing the setting buttons for folder structures can be difficult to understand at first.

Generally quite a reliable tool with decent data quality/availability. Pricing works well for our team and our use case

DealRoom is very easy to use and has a clear interface and all the features we needed.

Because in general the platform has a very complete use, for a fair and accessible price, to perform daily prospecting helps a lot to find potential prospects and take the company to a higher level and exceed the borders and barriers of not being able to find national, international and transnational companies. It also helps to grow the agenda of contacts, the contacts in the network, keep a good administration of time and activities to be performed to have adequate follow-up, increasing the chances of closing deals with new customers.

It was the most intuitive data room platform that i used in my work

The team wants to solve probelms, but we are finding that they don't know how to solve the more technical issues quickly. I suspect that they don't have a mature process for escalations, and they don't have a usable knowledge base article repository. They seems to push emails around to let us know that people are working on the issues to find solutions, but this takes weeks and oftentimes still leaves us without a resolution.

Support is very friendly and answers fast.

As there are more credits in Apollo and it is user-friendly than the others. And mostly, I liked the accuracy of the data it provided, which is generally accurate and directed to the right person, primarily used in B2B sales from the user's perspective. I prefer this recommendation to the others.

DealRoom provides a superior product. We select DealRoom for most of our engagements mostly due to the advanced Due Diligence capabilities that it provides. However, the ease of use, speed, and simplicity of the product are also factors that inspire us to choose DealRoom as our "go-to" provider.

• Having customisable sequences makes it easier to follow-up when you are busy. I would have forgotten/not done certain tasks had it not been automated
• Make yourself accountable with the "Manual" tasks. Apollo.io give you all the data to make calls, and you can set yourself reminders to do it.
• Clean accurate data. I think 85% of numbers are correct and most contacts have emails. Vital for getting through.

• It helped us manage documents and share info between our firm and the potential investors and clients. And also helped to manage internal processes and keep an eye on everything in the company.
