Likelihood to Recommend CloseFactor has been a great way to target contacts by company and be able to filter down by other characteristics, such as seniority, specific role, or other keywords. There is still some manual work to push contacts to a CRM or contact tool (SalesLoft, Outreach) but being able to do this in bulk rather than one by one saves a lot of time when finding quality prospects.
Read full review Seismic excels at being a one-stop shop for all content that is relevant to salespeople and the deal cycles they work through. It does a great job not only making content and training readily available but also at distributing the right content at the right time/for the right scenario. Based on my experience with the tool, this was a go-to for many reps (myself included) because it saved us so much time. Rather than sifting through documents and collateral, we could easily find what we needed in a matter of moments.

Seismic provides the ability to fully customize content such that one template can serve many needs with the simple ability to answer questions that drive the customization in the content. This customization can range from simple to quite complex depending on your level of expertise with the tool. Seismic provides a lot of flexibility when it comes to organizing your content and how to make the experience of accessing that content unique to the needs of each user in the system.

They have responded quickly, and I feel as if they truly try to find a solution to the quickest of their abilities. My team and I truly feel supported when it comes to reaching out to Seismic.
Read full review Alternatives Considered CloseFactor builds on tools like
LinkedIn Sales Navigator . Rather than comb through contacts one by one, CloseFactor identifies all contacts that satisfy certain criteria and allows us to bulk push them into our CRM. There is also a component of validating contact info that is imported with the contact, which LinkedIn lacks entirely
Read full review Savo, Google Drive, Shared folders Savo - was best in class a long time ago (and has since been bought by Seismic) - but required a lot of administrative work to setup and maintain. I had three people working on it full time to create pages and managing content. Shared folders and google drive are good to share content, but terrible at searching and tagging (not fully indexed and no tagging)

We've experienced repeated frustrations while trying to edit/update the LiveDoc. Errors in LiveDoc coding have occasionally produced errors in the generated proposals where certain fields (Customer Name, for example) should have been automatically completed but were not.
