S&P Capital IQ vs. Demandbase One

Cap IQ is well suited for analyzing security pricing and valuation, tracking stock performance over time, looking up comparable transactions, and analyzing valuations on an industry basis. The service is also well suited for charting and data analysis purposes.

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.

• On-demand reliable financial data either through the platform or through the Excel Plug-In
• Great user interface, intuitive to use
• Great help desk function, quick and responsive
• Excellent auditability of financial data with easy traceback to source documents

Incentivized

• The Demandbase UI is user-friendly, easy to navigate and super intuitive.
• Ad Targeting and budgeting is very concise, the platform tells you how much reach and spend you can expect for each campaign.
• Person-based ad targeting, they are one of the only platforms that offers this which is a game changer.

• The scope and depth of the collected data can be increased.
• The UI with little icons and buttons may be difficult at first but may become intuitive. The UI isn't horrible but might be better.
• Global data coverage, but US and UK markets have the greatest details. MENA and APAC lack.

• Under the "highlighted" section there are only 6 accounts to see. It would be nice to have more than 6.
• The engagement is rated in "minutes" while that's not really what is being scored. It's a little confusing as to how their engagement is scored.
• It would be nice to be able to mute or hide of some contacts that we have already spoken to so that it opens space for other prospects.
• Overall happy with the product

[It's the] best ever.

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.

S&P CIQ Pro has great data, however, the new pro version is currently difficult to use given how slow the data is to process

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.

Seems to always work.

It's pretty fast.

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.

She was fine, but we only had one session

Seeing the demo during the sales cycle, not much training was needed due to this application being plug and play.

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.

We had Capital IQ in addition to Bloomberg. It was much easier for a new person to use Capital IQ than Bloomberg. The ease of use was a huge selling point for us. Yahoo finance on the other hand is free, but you cannot gather all the data you may need in one location like you can in Capital IQ.

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
