Additional Details
Bombora is based on:
- The volume of Intent data needed
- Preferred integrations or partner platforms
- The level of support needed to get started
The Demandbase One for Sales and Marketing platform fee covers the essential software and services. In addition, there’s a flat fee per user.
INFUSE crafts demand programs on a cost per lead (CPL) basis. No subscription or setup fees.
On a par, we use all three of these either currently or in the past Each tool has its benefits it would be good for the tools to co-exist and learn to further the improvement Bombora is the current go to and continues to deliver - that said the marketplace is competitive, so we …
Having a true understanding of WHERE the data comes from and how it is collected was a question no other intent data providers could give us a straight answer on. With Bombora, we know exactly where it comes from, how it's scored, and what our next step is to leverage the data.
6sense is not as large a player as these other alternatives, in my opinion. But it is still a great platform. It all comes down to how much you are willing and able to spend. Bombora will give you great and actionable data for account prospecting and can be a great starting …
Madison Logic has performed very well for us across EMEA and NA but was a struggle in APAC based on behaviors, organization reach, etc. INFUSE helped with this. INFUSE also has much better user interface and more attractive previews for ads.
Bombora is the perfect tool for anyone looking to understand their B2B customer and their buyer's journey better. Companies produce tons of content - and pay lots of money creating and then amplifying it too. But is it really what the customer is interested in? Now you don't have to guess, you can know thanks to company surge data.
Demandbase One is well-suited for ABM Marketing, providing intent-based account details, account scoring methods, and understanding account intent. It also enables creating a list of accounts and individuals for retargeting based on specific filters. Easy to integrate with Salesforce, LinkedIn, Google Ads, and multiple other channels. Advertising through the Demandbase channel is more effective for advertisers who use retargeting with the intent list.
From our first exchange they have been very responsive. They listen carefully to our needs and importantly they deliver against our requirements. They are agile, flexible and come to the table with new ideas. We at Siemens see them as a strategic partner at this stage and I hope we continue to work productively in to the future.
Intent topics, as well as the clusters tied to them, have enabled our PMMs to be more granular with specific workloads that are based on industry.
The "Account Intent" option within the "Insights" tab allowed us to look specifically into historical data tied to current activities that we were experiencing with that account.
Downloading intent data and trying to use it outside of their environment is tricky because the data is essentially one large worksheet. We want to overlay the data with our own data but joining it all together is tricky. Our data comes from D&B so the names provided by D&B don't always match what we get from Bombora so account matching is not very clean.
Customer service is a bit hit or miss. I worked with an account rep to try and resolve it but she couldn't. However, she did open a ticket with the Bombora help desk to try and get me answers. I waited more than a week and got no answer. I followed up and the reply was the original owner of the ticket is out and the new ticket owner was wondering if I had rerun the report to see if the problem went away.
Despite having a self-service type set up for the dashboards and reports, trying to understand what exactly needs to be filled in isn't always easy. The data doesn't match up with what we download so trying to compare the dashboards/reports to the extract is next to impossible?! It shouldn't be this way.
I think providing a quarterly highlights document would be particularly helpful without asking. We ask every quarter and it creates a bit of a bottleneck for us.
Communication via email can get exhausting. Can we explore having a joint Slack channel for collaboration?
Relatively inexpensive service for a decent current awareness service. They have added little in sales functionality in the past year as they focused on building a marketing version of the product. Except for the addition of broader European coverage last spring (thin Equifax records), the database was static over the past year.
I give Bombora an 8 as they do intent well for now. Not a 10 because again its a one trick pony where there are other platforms like ZoomInfo that offer intent as well plus so much more. From an end user perspective, I'd like Bombora to build out first party intent data capabilities to combine into the scoring.
InsideView was extremely user-friendly. I was able to quickly understand how to efficiently use the software and get the most out of the service. I only had a short time to quickly learn how to use the functions offered by InsideView, and I felt confident within the first day of my understanding and ability to successfully use this tool.
INFUSE was able to get our campaigns up and running, allowing us the ability to migrate qualified leads down to our sales team. INFUSE also went a step above, by providing call scripts and prescribed touchpoints along the qualifing journey, allowing our sales teams more time to schedule follow-up meetings and create opportunities that generated potential review.
Our CSM team is always available for us to meet with via an outreach click to book an invite and we have standing meetings. They met with us on day 1 of implementation and had us up and running that evening. They even go to the lengths of matching industry tenured folks with us to help us move faster.
We had an intro session with a customer success rep and were given a rundown of the platform and it was absolutely perfect. The rep was able to show us advanced search options and shortcuts that cut our search time.
Luckily, we haven't had to submit too many support tickets. For the few tickets we have had to submit, the support team was able to send us updates right away. They were very well-versed in our issues and worked with our third-party vendors on our integration issues. We had a very pleasant experience working with their support team.
There is a room for improvement in a layman's perspective as it was difficult for our to understand things during training and had to rearrange sessions.
We had to work with InsideView for some custom configurations example we have a custom field in Salesforce called ha location that needed let's say NJ to spell out New Jersey and make certain fields mandatory. They were easy to work with though.
Bombora doesn't give you a token for the number of accounts that are populated. You can search and request as many as you'd like. With other platforms, they provide you a token, and if you use all your tokens for the month, then you have to wait til next month.
We selected Demandbase based on their premium B2B DSP, their integrations with third party ad sites and our CRM and tech stack. Their intent signals and ability to integrate the data we have in Demandbase to GCP through their DataStream product to build our own models and leverage in our own dashboards has been extremely beneficial
I've found INFUSEmedia to have more diverse and customizable versions of content syndication than other partners that we have considered and run with. Their pricing is competitive and the value adds they have provided for certain strategies have further helped them to stack up well against the competition. Additionally, their team has been enjoyable to work with on a day to day basis given their level of support and responsiveness.
Bombora played a big role in us proving the effectiveness of ABM for our organization and had a huge impact on us gaining approval for a full ABM platform.
Bombora helped us identify key target accounts that brought great net new business to our company.
Save me time doing company research from an average of 25 mins to an average of 7 mins for large ICP accounts.
Save me time by integrating the contact research without jumping out of InsideView to do it in a separate app.
A morning 10 mins scan of the target company news feed gave me a high level view of the most important news that I need to know regarding my prospect accounts and their respective industries.
