Dialpad
Well, There are numerous scenarios where a Dialpad can be very helpful in terms of communication tools. It allows the user to send text unlimited messages, making outbound calls, and review daily, weekly, monthly, or custom analytics. Saving n number of contact details, easy to search them on Dialpad. As of now, I did not come across any scenario where I can say Dialpad would not be suited.

Pros
Apollo.io
  • Sequencing automated email campaigns for outbound prospecting (BD Function).
  • Integrating with Sales Navigator to help me find emails/phone #' numbers/"add to sequence" while prospecting. It's easy and seamless to find & then load contacts into Cadences.
  • Integration with Salesforce is a huge plus. Allows me to not worry about logging anything, but the executive team can see my activity & what is going on (emails going out, responses I get, etc.).
  • The analytics on the outreach data is always helpful as well (open rates, click rates, etc.).

Cons
Apollo.io
  • Some of time it happens that right stakeholders' mobile seems not available in which improvement can help more accurate data.
  • Notifications when someone opens the marketing email and showing the interest.
  • Mobile application that will help us during the travelling. It will get very easy to log calls and find the contacts on the way.

Support Rating
Apollo.io
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.

I link the interface of Apollo.io better than Zoominfo. Zoominfo only provides a company employees and rarely the specific people I was looking for in shipping and logistics. It generally recommended higher level executives like Presidents or COO's instead of the decision makers I need to work with. I also found much of the info Zoominfo provided to be outdated. In some cases the people were no longer employed with the company

I think that Skype for Business was a clunky system to use and didn't seem as up-to-date with their interface as Dialpad Sell does. I have found that Slack does a better job at communicating within the company, but Dialpad Sell is still the best system for external outreach.

Return on Investment
Apollo.io
  • I've only just started using Apollo, but with the 24 emails I've sent out using Apollo, I've already received one response, which is a much better ratio than before.
  • I was also able to add several companies that were not already in my Salesforce account, which appeared in Apollo.io.
  • Apollo.io helped me find genuine companies that we could assist through the prospecting filters, which was very helpful.
