DemandScience vs. Terminus ABM Platform

DemandScience is great if you are looking for the ability to target very specific titles, roles, companies, etc., and receive high quality leads. They have an incredible scale compared to other partners my team has worked with, but their leads also perform very well down the funnel. This is not always the case because oftentimes, a partner will have room to scale well, but the leads are colder. I'm really impressed with how well DemandScience targets and also with how quickly they respond to me when I have any questions. Recently, my DemandScience rep reached out because he wanted to get our targeting more honed in on our ideal customer. He wanted to work with me to see down-funnel data (where possible and allowed) so that we could create a more targeted campaign. Other partners have never put this kind of time into our partnership.

I really love working with the team. If you are looking to get more targeted in your advertising approach, leverage intent data & have your sales team utilize this data for a more personalized experience - that is the best-case scenario. You do need to invest quite a bit into your advertising to be able to gather data & see [the] influence, so if your AOV would be impacted drastically by this cost, I would not recommend using the advertising experiences and chat experiences until you can invest more.

• Event Announcements. We use Sigstr to promote hosted and co-hosted events. Email recipients can click on the Sigstr to register for the event itself. By promoting events through Sigstr we have been able to increase event registration and attendance.
• Content Sharing. New blog post, webinar, presentation, infographic... you name it, you can use Sigstr to promote it. Furthermore, you can personalize the content to target different audiences based of the sender group. Example: customer content Sigstr belongs to support, while marketing new business content belongs to sales.
• Announcements. Product enhancements, Company news etc. You can use Sigstr to promote general announcements relevant to the audience.

• Management and attention to detail - several items slip through the cracks.
• Coordination between account management and invoicing has been sloppy.
• Better intent data to match profiles.
• Connecting the download to the actual sponsor - often heard, "We never downloaded XYZ."

• They recently purchased some new solutions that are being integrated into the platform so once that is completed it will be a much more robust solution.
• I think updating what is considered high value vs brand awareness on the spike report could be a little more seamless.
• For Salesforce integration, Terminus information unfortunately doesn't pull in historically, it just shows what has happened since the integration started. I think it's unfortunate because that historical data tells us a lot.

It works well for lead generation but renewal will depend on the strategy and budget at the point we need to renew to see if it will align.

Terminus is a turn-key partner in the B2B Account-Based Marketing space. Their model is flexible and efficient which in turn provides effective results. Their sales staff is great and never tries to up-sell, but rather coach and educate our teams to be better at our jobs. It has been great to collaborate

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.

The DemandScience Activate CSM team is always helpful and attentive to our organization's needs and goals. We receive thorough attention and detail from the team through regular touch bases and a standard reporting cadence. The team always asks where they can improve, and works to provide insights that matter to our organization and help us to try new things.

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.

Demand Science was less expensive when quoting cost per lead than Tech Target. Other than that, the program sounded almost the same. I selected Demand Science because I was price sensitive while trying to test whether the tactic of content syndication was effective for us.

It's a great all-around platform. With each of these ABM vendors, you have to pay for all the bells and whistles they offer. Terminus ABM Platform "base" packages include everything you need to get started and you can add on bits and pieces like chat, email or personalization as your organization continues to mature through their ABM journey.

• It's EXTREMELY hard to assess total ROI with display advertising unless you're getting clicks on your ads. Even then you probably want additional tracking metrics such as Google Analytics, form fills, etc.
• Our sales guys like the engagement spike reports, which can be useful for prompting them to reach out to their contacts.
