Considered Both Products	Crunchbase Verified User Manager Chose Crunchbase It has more data and it's for sure more accurate, Crunchbase has a better platform when talking about visual and it's also easier to search. Also, it has better filters which can help companies to dive deeper into researching accordingly to their needs Incentivized Helpful? Christian Brock Director Chose Crunchbase UK based business, good data, great insights. Helpful? Verified User C-Level Executive Chose Crunchbase I like PitchBook a lot -- but too expensive for a slight difference in our use case. If Crunchbase added valuation "estimates" (kind of like zillow "zestimates"), it would be awesome instead of just very good. Helpful? Verified User Board Member Chose Crunchbase Crunchbase is cheaper and the overall price/value balance is better Helpful? Verified User Employee Chose Crunchbase Ptichbook. This platform is more detailed and has a lot more information regarding round details. The platform also has other features to build lists, market maps, landscapes and access reports and raw data about companies by vertical or any other segmentation. Also provides … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Executive Chose Crunchbase Crunchbase is definitely bottom of the barrel in this space. At similar pricing models, all competitors I have tried have significantly bigger and more updated databases. Crunchbase may have been great sometime in the past, but they are not worth engaging now. Helpful? Vivian Okere Commercial Account Executive Chose Crunchbase The UI/UX: Crunchbase gives me visibility of everything in one place. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Contributor Chose Crunchbase Crunchbase is the best resource for prospecting startups hands down. TechTarget has a lot of useful info, but I found it to be inaccurate where it mattered most. Crunchbase's data seems more accurate, and is also easier to use. Not the most exact comparison, but they offer … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Employee Chose Crunchbase Sales Navigator is better only because it provides you with more direct contacts to reach out to. Crunchbase only tells you really the top dogs in the company like c-level execs, not necessarily contacts that you would be having sales conversations with. Incentivized Helpful? Parker O'Very Marketing Operations Manager Chose Crunchbase Crunchbase has far more company data than LinkedIn Sales Navigator. The thing that it lacks is data on the people at those companies. LinkedIn Sales Navigator also has a better CRM integration, from what I understand. It is more automated. For our strategy, we use both of these … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Representative Chose Crunchbase This question always gets me. In a world with so many database solutions, it becomes quite difficult to compare, its the subtleties. Bigger is usually better...Crunchbase has gone through over 300...300 rounds of funding. In a world where there are so many options, going with … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Representative Chose Crunchbase I have found that Crunchbase has more up-to-date information when comparing ZoomInfo and EverString. Incentivized Helpful? ★ Kevin Thomas ★ Small Business Consultant - Financial Services Chose Crunchbase I don't know of other services like Crunchbase, in my mind it stands alone. Of course I could use FormDs, but it's cumbersome and doesn't provide the same level of information, so I rarely use it. Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	Crunchbase Inc. Looking to create lists of target companies through the advanced search feature or the query builder if one is planning to reach out to the individuals listed in the profile. Looking for investment and company history information to inform sourcing or competitive landscape research. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	Crunchbase Inc. Crunchbase has an easy-to-navigate user interface. The bar at the top of the screen that shows the different data points available on companies is particularly helpful for quick navigating. The ability to make and import lists and save searches is helpful for customizing the software to your particular needs. The web and mobile app data that Crunchbase offers is very helpful to gauge trends and interest in companies for diligence purposes. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Crunchbase Inc. Notifications - Something similar to TweetDeck would be nice, so that when news breaks it could be an immediate fact. Honestly dont add too much because you don't want it to become more of a social tool with cluttered info, keep it straight to the point. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	Crunchbase Inc. In our experience, the customer service is horrible to non existent. If we were a fortune 100 company with a staff of computer people I am sure this would be a valuable service as they would "speak the language" but that is not us. Not being able to reach customer service when we are thinking about upgrading is, in my opinion, a crazy business model. Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	Crunchbase Inc. They give standard answers. They are not a customer first business. I tried to cancel my subscription after using it for only 1 week as we found the information was outdated and not at all useful. But they would not cancel the year long subscription I mistakenly signed up for Verified User Anonymous Read full review

Return on Investment	Crunchbase Inc. Crunchbase has been great and given us a lot of new companies to go after that have received funding and turned into great meetings. We do not pay a ton, so the ROI is great. We have nothing but positive results using Crunchbase and rely on it heavily for prospecting. It might add more value if we get a more expensive or advanced version. Incentivized Lindsey Schultz Business Development Manager Read full review
