    Based on my experience using Apollo.io, it is well-suited for organizations like startups that are actively looking to generate new leads to market their products, and for direct marketing using the Apollo.io mail system and filtering leads by locality, sector, or designation.

    The Tool is best suited for assessing quality of data in terms of the likelihood that you will be able to get in touch with the person. The Tool regularly updates to ensure that there are no issues when working with Linkedin. The customer service team is always available to offer support and regularly provide guidance with updates. The Tool pulls all forms of contact information ranging from contacts' emails to phone number and everything in between. The Tool is highly intuitive and thus, easy to use.

    RainKing is less appropriate when you don't have the funds or resources to pay for it. You could easily Google the information that you're looking for, or use CrunchBase, but it's extremely time-consuming. RainKing makes this very easy and the data seamlessly sends to Salesforce with the proper integration. RainKing is very appropriate when you have a large team of folks that need to source leads/accounts simultaneously and need licenses to do so - it's worth the money with a larger team.

    • Being able to search for companies that are currently evaluating solutions in your space.
    • The contact information for people and related people is also great, I have used dozens of other data solutions and prefer Rainking.
    • Rainking also gives you the ability to create lists of your ideal buyer and download them which was great for my team and I pull new contacts to prospect!
    • I can't get over how impressive the org chart info is in RainKing, it allowed myself and my team to find other involved prospects and get a good feel for organizations.

    Cons
    Apollo.io
    • Apollo.io's sync to Salesforce is incredibly finnicky and created a large number of duplicates.
    • Apollo.io's workflow functionality is rigid and doesn't play nicely with middleware like Zapier.
    • Apollo.io is focused on helping you spin up many different emails and phone numbers in a spammy manner instead of focusing on domain reputation.

    • Account manager - really unresponsive, not interested in helping with renewal, making the case to our execs
    • The Discover/RainKing team was not interested in helping us expand the way we are utilizing the tool, provide additional training, etc
    • Contacts department designation lacks in accuracy, we frequently found significant mismatches

    Apollo.io
    I gave it a 7 because it doesn't help you out if you're an organization that's call-heavy, because a lot of times the numbers aren't the best. It's not accurate. If you're somebody who's email and outbound and your goal is to find that, then that's cool. It works well for it. Some of the features, the AI tools, and some additional features they have are just too complex. Sometimes it's easy to use, but at the same time, there are tools that are not efficient, and it's like, "Where is this coming from?"Especially if you're looking for your niche, whatever industry you're in, and the target word, sometimes it can't find it. You can see what people are searching for, and it just doesn't add up. If you're trying to get very, very detailed, it's not the best. Sometimes it's going to depend on your industry, of course.

    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.

    We found the contact data from Apollo.io was more reliable than Instantly.ai. We used Instantly.ai for about 6 months before stopping our use of it. Growbots doesn't give you as much volume for the same price at Apollo.io. However, we did close sales with Growbots, and we did not with Apollo.io. It could have just been our unique experience, but that's what happened.

    We have used Atomic Email Hunter for quite a bit, but this is a manual task and takes more time to accomplish the same thing with lower probabilities of success. eGrabber just is a lot more powerful but also a bit more pricy. But to us it is worth its weight in gold.

    I've used SalesNavigator and Zoom Info. I actually think that Ranking is a great solution if you can use it in tandem with SalesNavigator. When it comes to pulling lists, in my opinion, Ranking does it best. Now that it has the database combined with Discoverorg, it's even more powerful to use.

    • Apollo.io has helped me find a good set of new target audience for the business that I am in, essentially helping me build a prospective line and grow my lead database by 25 to 30% where I lack a certain skill
    • The Apollo.io quality of the data that it has is significantly better through other competitors like Lusha and others
    • In terms of the revenue increase, there have been certain instances where I have found a new acquirer that essentially I would not have found in a general scenario and that has help me generate from the new identified lead
