Salesforce launched Data.com in 2011, in partnership with D&B, but has since decided to gradually sunset the platform. Data.com offered a store of company and customer data for use in sales and prospecting.

Chose Data.com (discontinued)
The accuracy of Data.com versus SalesIntel is second to none. Data.com integrates with our current Salesforce platform, which takes out a lot of the manual manipulation of lists that we used to have to do when we had other platforms. This is particularly helpful because time is …

Adobe Workfront may not be the direct competitor of Data.com, but for the services I was using, Workfront looked a little better when it comes to the user interface. But Data.com definitely had more powerful features & better integration capabilities. Also, it was easier to …

My client chose Data.com based on the experience during the evaluation period and the cost comparison. Data.com was the better-suited solution in this scenario. The size of the InsideView database was significantly smaller than Data.com and had limitations on downloads that …

I have only been exposed to Data.com in this solution category. I am familiar with other comparable names, but since we are Salesforce-centric, Data.com is the tool of choice.

Chose Data.com (discontinued)
What I have found is that no single platform provides all the data we need, even Data.com. There are often inconsistencies between the information found on Data.com versus other platforms so we are using Data.com in parallel with these other platforms. The interface and the …

I feel RainKing is the winner regarding just contact details and org charts within companies. Their info is better up to date and a little easier to manage and search. However, Data.com might have the advantage when it comes to company breakdown, allowing for actual financial …

When we first purchased Datanyze, they had an email address portion of the site. The platform changed about halfway through our contract and no longer included access to email information. I believe that functionality is back as a feature of Datanyze. However, it always seemed …

The other crowd sourced data provider I've used is ZoomInfo. ZoomInfo generally has more direct numbers, however it appears as if they've done away with their free tier. The other downside of Zoom was you give them access to your email for them to data mine contacts. On the …

I have used data.com for about 6 months longer than ZoomInfo. Honestly, ZoomInfo seems to have more accurate data and the company bios are extremely helpful, as well as the integration in the form of an entire section of the page in Salesforce.

Data.com is tightly integrated with Salesforce. Given the expensive cost of Salesforce licenses, throwing this as an "add-on" is easy to justify internally as well.

I recently used quickmail for a client, it was awful. Software should actually perform its purpose. If you only have a few thousand contacts in a database, just provide the whole list. Using a search function where there aren't any results the last 15 searches, is worthless. …

There are many scenarios that make data.com well suited, but most specifically, it works very well when looking for contacts within a certain zip code. You can sort and find information about these contacts and pay by points. This helps because you are able to pick and choose which you want to pay for.

Data.com is a great way to find out accurate revenue and employee numbers for companies across various industries.
Data.com's filtering capabilities allow our team to quickly find the ideal prospects to reach out to.
Data.com, being owned by Salesforce, allows for a seamless integration into our CRM. This saves us an incredible amount of time and ensures data accuracy.

Some contacts can be old. Perhaps they could consider validating some that are older than 5 years.
They don't always detect duplicate companies. For example, I've added the same company twice before, I don't understand how they allow that, or prevent others from adding duplicates. It doesn't happen very often,, only occasionally.
Sometimes data.com will "autocorrect" a job title incorrectly. For example, entering "Director of People & Culture" will autocorrect it to "Director of peopleandculture" If you don't catch it, it looks pretty bad for the next person who wants to view the contact.

Very intuitive to use and I've never had any confusion with features. Anyone can create an account and use the platform simply by adding a contact or company into the database to earn points. It's a great option if you don't have budget for lists or pay services. It is easy to use and anyone can benefit from it.

Whenever I've had a question their support has responded pretty quickly and gives me exactly what I am looking for. I have not had any technical issues so I can't speak to issues there, but as far as general questions from a free user they have impressed me with how quickly they get back to me and the thoroughness of their answers.

Adobe Workfront may not be the direct competitor of Data.com, but for the services I was using, Workfront looked a little better when it comes to the user interface. But Data.com definitely had more powerful features & better integration capabilities. Also, it was easier to play around with the customer journey in Data.com as compared to other tools I have used in the past.
