    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: For a company or organization that knows what they need to solve problems or optimize processes. TrustRadius for Buyers is ideal as you can check out categories and alternatives and read super-specific reviews that apply to your use case. Less appropriate: If you are unsure what you're trying to accomplish or the area/function to optimize with software, you can be overwhelmed with the vast offer of reviews because you don't know where to look.

    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.

    • Sorting of the default view of reviews since the initial reviews can play a big role in decisions.
    • More visibility into what went into certain product's score for the rating it has.
    • Help secure great deals on the softwares for which reviews are available.

    since
    it is a page that provides data although very long to read are specific and
    technical as they are, data of people who have used or use the program you may
    need for the company, and help us solve a problem, without the need to hire
    external consultants or expensive programs, saving us money in the company

    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.

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 I tried to cancel my subscription after using it for only 1 week as we found the information was outdated and not at all useful.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

    While G2 and Capterra cover a wider range of categories, TrustRadius focuses specifically on business technology solutions. TrustRadius is known for its emphasis on verifying user reviews and providing in-depth insights. Their user base consists of professionals and decision-makers, making it a valuable resource for trustworthy and detailed feedback. G2 and Capterra offer broader market coverage and a wide range of products. I personally do not prioritize any specific platform. Wherever I find detailed information, I use it.

    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.

    • It's had a positive impact in helping us be confident in the selections we make
    • It's also had a positive impact in opening us up to other products/offerings we would not have known about
    • It's further allowed us to have deeper conversations with vendors about potential pitfalls we would not have known about otherwise
