Likelihood to Recommend Demand Science did deliver the quantity of leads without issue. The data for a few was not accurate (bounced when following up). But they agreed to make good by providing substitute leads to meet the quota. Towards the end of my project, they lost a few folks, and so the end of my campaign got a little rough as they were taking over some assignments midway. But we ultimately completed the SOW. I will say that the leads did not perform well in our email cadence - none converted. However, this was a test of the concept for us. Content syndication had a lower cost per qualified lead than some other tactics, so we tested it. Your results may vary, based on your follow-up and your market.
Read full review Folloze is a solid tool for creating personalized experiences and micro-targeted campaigns. Being able to deliver a ton of information, content, and/or useful links based on specific segments or personas. Folloze makes it easy to bring together content around a specific narrative so we can speak impactfully to specific market segments.
Read full review Pros The initial pitch and contact from Mason used "show me you know me" well, which we felt was a good sign of company culture and approach to database marketing. Delivery of leads was ahead of schedule. They set expectations, and then delivered what they said they would. The leads matched our criteria as agreed. Regular check ins and catch ups, and patience when thing were taking a bit of time to get sorted here. Read full review Plug into Salesforce. We live in Salesforce, so it's a must! Ease of use when designing boards. We love to all feel like graphic designers. Dashboards showing activity levels of all types. Storing assets within folloze. Makes it super easy to build a board fast. Cloning boards. Time saver!! Read full review Cons We would like to see more proactive communication on what's working and what's not without requiring a meeting - regular reporting cadence to assess asset quality A dashboard view might be nice as well, again, so we can look at an asset and see how it's performing (or if it isn't) without having to wait on a rep to pull a report or schedule a walkthrough Read full review Integrating the contact form with our CRM has been a lengthy and on-going process We use iframe for some of our content pieces and I think it could look better than it does now We need licenses for our salespeople for them to get access to insights of a board. An easier way to send them this info without them needing licenses would be nice Read full review Likelihood to Renew Our executives decided to not renew because we were not seeing the ROI they were looking for. However, our executives did not make the best decisions on the data Demand Science provided.

Read full review Usability The leads were pretty straight forward. However, their appointment setting did not integrate well into our system and many of the meetings didn't occur. I had to chase a lot of prospects and many times Demand Science didn't provide direct dials.
Read full review Usability is good, but it does take some patience at times. You need to refer to your CSM or the Folloze resource library when stuck, which is relatively standard. Once you get the hang of things, I feel it's easy to remember and duplicate your efforts over and over. Just be patient and learn all you can about the product.

Read full review Support Rating Our rep is always available and quickly responds to any question we have. I haven't worked with other partners who are as proactive and excited to help us as our DemandScience rep is. He reaches out with new ideas and suggestions frequently. They are happy to make any changes needed to the campaigns and make those changes quickly and efficiently. They work well with our execution agency, but are also happy to meet with us directly to provide insights and support.
Read full review Folloze has a very intuitive user interface and designer. Their integrations have been seamless, and their team has been extremely helpful and responsive in getting features added or any gaps addressed. We have been leveraging the tool to its full capability, and people are happy both internally as well as externally.

Read full review Implementation Rating They did extremely well. However, our executives did a poor job in defining our ICP so we didn't get the maximum benefit out of it.
Read full review I was not involved with the implementation of Folloze. This project was executed before I was hired
Read full review Alternatives Considered I've not used another content syndication company, and I probably won't after the lack of results we've had. I have used direct email organizations, and they are stronger but also more expensive, so you have to weigh your priorities. I could see if you were selling a specific product or software and how this could be beneficial, but I'd steer away from it for services.
Read full review Folloze does so much more than the other tools we evaluated, like
PathFactory and
Uberflip . Those other solutions are more of a content repository with AI to help guide the visitor's experience. While this is powerful, Folloze goes a step further by making a full web page experience. It allows you to provide context and a story along with the content itself. When paired with their personalization, Folloze is the clear choice
