    DemandTools is good for almost everything related to mass data manipulation. The only scenario I haven't tried using DemandTools and was recommended to use Data Loader for was inserting records while keeping the original created date. The issue was that we had a disconnection with an external messaging partner, and when the records were retrieved, a few days had passed since the original day of the incoming messages. To insert the messages while keeping the original created date, DataLoader was helpful. I am not sure how to do that in DemandTools. But again, for everything else, DemandTools is a lifesaver.

    If you are using Office365 and it is within your budget, utilizing SmartCloud Connect as an interface with a CRM is a no-brainer. It remains hidden when Outlook opens, but with an email selected you can open it with a single click. It then allows you to associate the email and even attachments with email addresses that were included in the to, cc, or from sections of the email. It's a very intuitive user interface and saves time in email tracking.

    Cons

    • I wish I could make changes to my existing scenarios using save rather than having to create a whole new scenario. Maybe you can, I just haven't been able to.
    • Some features aren't user intuitive and it takes a while to learn.

    It's a great product. The only thing that holds us back is it was frustrating working with their sales team. We also don't like that when Validity purchased DemandTools they immediately started charging us quite a bit while it had been free for non-profit users when CRMFusion owned it. They also don't let you buy it for just 1 or 2 seats, you have to pay, I believe, in batches of 100 seats.

    Because of the issues we have been having regarding connectivity and instability of the google extension. At some point if this is not handled we may have to find a new vendor to support our needs

    Allows for control in uploading lists, saved processes for checking duplicate records.

    Allows for backup files and quick reverts if something goes wrong.

    Extends reporting when Salesforce.com cannot support specific pieces of info being put together in a report.

    Support can be slow so do not expect quick turn for urgent issues.
    Help for specific queries not not there. Product tech support is offered. It would be great if query support, even if paid, was offered
    The training webinars help with the basics but not much if you need advanced functionality.

    Sometimes they ask for way to much information. They need screenshots, full event names, date and times events were set (Which can be very difficult when you have a reoccurring meeting that was originally set years ago)

    The trainings are free live webinars that give you a solid base for getting started with the program. The only weakness is they don't have any advanced classes.

    Though RingLead has much more to offer in terms of automation (and it is in Salesforce rather than a separate program), DemandTools still has our heart. DemandTools is very cost-friendly and we were able to increase the value of DemandTools by programming in additional saved scenarios. I decreased admin time in the DemandTools suite by approximately 25% after implementing saved scenarios for every reoccurring update or list upload.

    Out of all the other utilities we've used, SmartCloud connect seems to be the most stable. The other interfaces sometimes caused glitchy integrations with Outlook, requiring a user to restart the add-in to restore functionality, but so far that has not been the case with SmartCloud Connect. SmartCloud connect also allows you to connect to different CRM's instead of just one, which means you can still use it when migrating between CRM's.

    Return on Investment
    Validity
    • It is a tremendous time saver. It does things Salesforce doesn't even have the capability to do. Tasks that would take hours to manually complete.
    • We can process a tremendous amount of data daily through one person, vs. weeks for the data to be cleaned, reviewed, routed and input.
    • Saves on headcount by allowing a dedicated user to set up batches and jobs for other teams to ensure their data integrity.
    • The return on investment isn't easily quantifiable but it is FELT in our department.
