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.

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.

I haven't tried all of their solutions. We use their sales and marketing platform and data enrichment and it is a great fit for our lead generation needs. We use their data to help our clients achieve their goals too and have been satisfied so far. The platform is easy to use, and filters are pretty straightforward. An example of how we use it is take a certain region, industry, number of employees, some other criteria based on the task and what we get is a list of companies. We either narrow down the results by adding more requirements or export that data to our automation tools to start our campaigns.
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.

For some regions it takes a bit longer to find the required data, but I guess it's more of an availability issue rather then the company's fault. They tell us though how long it may take so we can make plans accordingly.
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.
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 I tried to cancel my subscription after using it for only 1 week as we found the information was outdated and not at all useful.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

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.
