Chose Tracxn
Tracxn lacks the comprehensiveness of a CBInsights but makes up for some of it by keeping a much lower price. However, it is still more expensive compared to some of the other similar databases in the marketplace (e.g. Crunchbase, DealRoom). Hence, it needs to work on its …
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.
Well suited: - Good for scouting targets for clients, based on their industry preferences, maturity level, and investor profile preference - Helped in buy-side due diligence. Less appropriate - Lacking in terms of readily available insights, with sector reports published in-house being extremely shallow and hence not much of value addition.
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.
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 I tried to cancel my subscription after using it for only 1 week as we found the information was outdated and not at all useful.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.
This beats all of the other programs. I have used all of them and Tracxn makes using the software so much easier. Using it daily I found out that it has an easy learning curve and a user-friendly interface. Data is more organized in this program as well.
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.
