The way Community Tax uses Sugar from a users point of view is, it can house a lot of information for either a company or individual with the option of adding additional sub cases . The down side is there are licenses issued per user and 1 per user is not enough because most of the time we are multitasking. Therefore a program/software would be more suitable instead of using a URL.

Pros
Crunchbase
- 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.

Cons
Crunchbase
- 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.

- I feel like there are unnecessary steps needed when saving work, which makes it time consuming at times.
- Being able to create my own dashboards to my liking has been a challenge and I have had to ask IT to assist with that.
- The system has gone down many times on me, I am not sure if it due to updates, but it does disturb my productivity.

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 I tried to cancel my subscription after using it for only 1 week as we found the information was outdated and not at all useful.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 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.

Node excels when it comes to lead intelligence like account-level and market insights. Its lead management module gives better segmentation and account identification. It is a good choice for mid-size companies (50-1000 employees) and their quality of support is very satisfactory. Its searchable data gives accurate results and its ease of integration with Salesforce is an added advantage over its competitors.

Return on Investment
Crunchbase
- 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.
