Definitive Healthcare vs. The List

I think the best scenario for using Definitive Healthcare is if accuracy isn't very important. If you just want to spam a lot of people and you don't really care where the contacts land, they're your vendor. If, on the other hand, you like accuracy and are hoping the commercial list vendor supplies data that will help your business grow, I feel they are less well suited to those use cases.

I believe it is perfect for media and advertising. Gets our sales team to the right contacts and often the correct titles and emails

• Provides a list of hospitals, health systems, medical groups, and practices
• Helps show what locations are under certain systems or groups
• Gives insight into specialties and employee counts

• The list provides specific emails, phone numbers, and titles for individual contacts. This is a major help in the corporate sales world as finding the right contact is everything.
• The List provides an awesome search function that allows for advanced searching of industries, brands, and contacts. The search function is perfect for boiling down exactly who or what I'm looking for, and also helps to generate new sales ideas.
• The List does a very cool job of providing cool examples of creative and ad spots used in current campaigns. This is an excellent tool for brainstorming and creating proposals. This function is also fully searchable and easy to look through.

Incentivized

• Outdated UI and lacks integration with popular software
• Account Management team is unempowered to solve problems or come up with creative solutions.
• Slow response time. I waited 3 weeks for a response from their team on a question.
• Database lack key contacts especially Director level and above. Poor tool for sales team.
• Poor customer service. I constantly felt like I was chasing them for a meeting or on questions.

• It would be nice if it were easier to get permission from contacts to be contacted
• It would also be nice if contacts on the list had an opt in preference

It delivers on its promise

It was unusable for us because key contacts were not there and our sales team had to tell Definitive what contacts were missing. Waste of time and money.

Account Managers and team often do not respond for weeks at a time.

I use both. Definitive Healthcare is better when you need specific hospital and clinic names. ZoomInfo only gives you a local address but refers to each location as the health system name so hard to define where particular people are from.

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.
