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.

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 I tried to cancel my subscription after using it for only 1 week as we found the information was outdated and not at all useful.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

I have never used a different subscription style product. My other experiences with sales research has had me using LinkedIn and Google in a very rudimentary fashion. The List is light years ahead of anything I was doing otherwise.

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.
