    For me, I'm in a college town so when we have a tournament we get flooded with RFPs from schools for the same dates. Lead Scoring allows me to see which of the leads is better suited for our needs over those dates. For example, a school that only wants to stay for one night because they are only an hour away is less desirable than a school that has to fly in and needs to stay for 4 nights!

    In my opinion, Lead Forensics is good for companies promoting a high-value ticket product on their website. If they are looking to maximize the results of their platform, LF is a good fit for their digital marketing strategy. If they are pushing a low-to-medium-ticket product, there is a higher risk that the platform will not be as relevant, because all the parts related to re-marketing and similar stuff can be done directly with Google tools, which are available to everyone.

    • Lead Forensics helps us see which companies are visiting our site, even if they don’t fill out a form. This gives us a chance to reach out to businesses that are already showing interest but might not have contacted us yet.
    • Instead of cold-calling random prospects, we can see which pages a company has viewed and how often they return. This helps us tailor our conversations based on what they’re actually interested in.
    • The Lead Forensics support team has been great whenever we’ve had questions. They’re quick to respond and always ready to help, whether it’s troubleshooting an issue or offering advice on how to get the most out of the platform.

    Cons
    Cvent
    • \New channels, mediums and metrics influencing the customer journey are introduced every day.
    • Committing to a lead scoring model that doesn't dynamically adjust as your customers do, will produce inaccuracies.
    • Without manually adjusting on a regular basis, miscalculations won't be addressed in a timely manner.

    • Better updates on companies' current names. Often if a company was a different company years ago it still says the old company name which is confusing.
    • Better identifying the correct location. Sometimes it seems like that the location coming up is the wrong location.
    • Giving a better understanding of how they got to the website would help too. Often is says "direct" but I would like to know if it was via a link from an email or what

    It is just a brilliant piece of software, and I discover more and more every time I meet with my account manager. The company missed a trick when it was first set up, as I believe they only used it to see who was looking at the site, but it can do so much more, and we would not be without it now. We have used it in relation to a cold-call campaign with Paragon to drive sales, but ultimately drilled down into who was coming to the site and whether they were our ideal customer.

    There are no other products like Cvent Lead Scoring that I have used or evaluated. The reason for this is because I've never had to stray from Lead Scoring, because it has been so beneficial.

    I’ve used SalesIntel primarily for contact data, but I haven’t explored its web tracking features. What sets Lead Forensics apart is how quickly it delivers actionable insights from site visits. It helps me identify engaged accounts and prioritize follow-up without extra effort. For our needs, Lead Forensics offered a more immediate impact on sales productivity and customer engagement.

    • We are still in the very early stages of using Lead Forensics for our agency, but I can see that it could already be very useful to us as we haven't had insights like this previously.
    • Our very first use case with Lead Forensics was with a brand-new client and I would say it went exceptionally well. We were running a large media campaign for them, and it was very insightful to see how those specific businesses were getting to the site and what page they were going to. Like mentioned previously, this helped their very small sales team to go after businesses they know were interested in them.
