Likelihood to Recommend Demandbase is a must have at our company. From an advertising standpoint it has allowed us to scale our ABM strategies and exceed benchmarks in our display ads. Our sales users are spending less time researching accounts and more time selling as Demandbase makes it easy for them to get alerted when accounts are showing intent and engagement with our business. I'm looking forward to the release of the multiple account journey product update, which will allow us to see how accounts are engaging with our other product areas and where we are missing the mark with engaging with those accounts who may be showing buyer signals with a particular GTM
Read full review Outreach is well suited for teams that need to do cold outbound to prospects. It's easy enough to create sequences that will use a variety of touchpoints (email, inMail, call, etc...). It's also easy to share sequences with team members to collaborate and the very best messaging. Outreach's integration over Salesforce and Gmail is also invaluable, without it each team member would probably spend hours per week clicking between tabs just to get to prospect information On the other hand, Outreach is not the best to help you create content, as of this writing there is no AI support. It is also worth noting that Outreach's permission structure can create a lot of confusion for team members and that untangling errors at times can become complex
Read full review Pros The Demandbase UI is user-friendly, easy to navigate and super intuitive. Ad Targeting and budgeting is very concise, the platform tells you how much reach and spend you can expect for each campaign. Person-based ad targeting, they are one of the only platforms that offers this which is a game changer. Read full review Organization - I know when to make calls/emails/LinkedIn connections without having to overthink anything. Alignment - the colleagues I work with on my accounts can keep tabs on my activity so there is no redundancy or overcommunication. Ease of use - all my contacts are in one place, and sending automated emails I have built in my sequences give me so much time back in my day. Read full review Cons Under the "highlighted" section there are only 6 accounts to see. It would be nice to have more than 6. The engagement is rated in "minutes" while that's not really what is being scored. It's a little confusing as to how their engagement is scored. It would be nice to be able to mute or hide of some contacts that we have already spoken to so that it opens space for other prospects. Overall happy with the product Read full review Customer Service - zero support for small - medium businesses. Billing - billing is messy, and customer service for billing questions is pretty awful (if anyone is ever available). Bounce Rates - our bounce rates are through the roof when using Outreach which isn't a problem we have with HubSpot or Pardot. Read full review Likelihood to Renew We expect to see good success in creating personalized experiences using Demandbase. This has allowed us to create industry specific visitor site experience as well as account specific site experience. This is expected to lead to higher conversion on the site. Therefore, we are very much likely to continue to use it.

Read full review I like Outreach, but I do wonder about new competitors that are 25-50% less expensive.
Read full review Usability Demandbase does have a learning curve, but once you get into it, the platform becomes very easy to use overall. I had a couple of sessions with our reps to have training sessions. After I was established, the only time I need help is with updates to the platform.
Read full review The ease of use for outreach is next to none. Everything is clearly explained, you can hop on a call with their support team whenever, and it effortlessly integrates into your computer. You can do everything you need sales related on it, and the learning curve is small. I'd recommend it as a first and last CRM.
Read full review Support Rating I don't deal a whole lot with the customer support, focused more on the use of it but from my experience, it's been fine. They've replied to my issues in a timely manner, never more than a day. The advertising team might be another story but I can't speak directly to that.
Read full review The overall support of Outreach has been great. Whenever I have a problem, they were quick to fix it and typically respond within one business day. I don't typically have many requests for support because a lot of my questions can be answered through their knowledge panel. They have been fantastic to work with overall.
Read full review Online Training We were able to implement quickly.
Read full review Lots of attention from the Outreach training team, with a great willingness to customize to our needs. To be clear, you get out what you put in. If you don't work with them, you'll get cookie-cutter training. But we asked for a lot of customization, and they delivered what we asked for.
Read full review Implementation Rating The consultant did a fantastic job in integrating Demandbase with Adobe Insight so we could leverage it to full potential. We also customized the industry groups specific to our company.
Read full review Although we required a special setup, the process was quick. But we paid a lot for the implementation and didn't use 33% of the hours we purchased.
Read full review Alternatives Considered Demandbase had a higher account match rate for our known and unknown accounts. We also leverage in-platform advertising a lot for our targeted account approach and Demandbase has an exceptional platform for this use case. The most impactful difference was the relationship we have with our account team and how they continually ensure our success.
Read full review We found that Outreach was superior to
Salesloft and
Gong , and a better fit for our organization for the following reasons:
User interface and overall experience: it's just a cleaner platform and easier to work in than the other two. Feature set: the other two tools had more bells and whistles, but sometimes less is more, and the core functionality of Outreach is preferable. Integration with Salesforce Price Customer support and training options are superior on Outreach Read full review Return on Investment Demandbase has helped me close business by focusing my lead generation efforts on companies that I know are interested in my services or use products that I consult on At Salesforce.com, I used Demandbase to alert sales about companies that are "actively" looking at our products, which led to faster close times and increased revenues Read full review The huge positive impact it had was the team not needing to spend as much time as disengaged opps as they were engaged ones. We were able to set sequences to work with them while the team could focus on generating new leads or converting Opps. For an AE - post demo communication is important. With templates and snippets we could just click a few buttons and have a really nice email sent out with the relevant information and then the next several steps already planned out. This freed up time for us and even allowed us to take calls a lot sooner after demo's then before. For busy days this was very helpful. Read full review ScreenShots
