Customerbase.ai / Detective.io (discontinued) vs. Winmo

If you are in any type of sales, and meeting with people, it is a must. If you already know you contact well, it doesn't have as much value for that particular meeting. Also I wish there was a way to not sync internal meetings, as it just provides clutter, and I don't need info on those people.

Winmo is best suited when you know which company you are looking for, but are missing some information, including key contacts, agency relationships, and quarterly advertising budgets. Scenarios where it is less appropriate are when you already know which company/contact you are looking for, and you are merely looking for company info to provide context

• They easily connect with my Outlook to sync my upcoming meetings.
• It provides me with the social profiles of people I am meeting with.
• It gives me the ability to have all my info about my contact in one place to easily review.

Incentivized

• Allows us to view information from companies in the industry to stay on top of industry news and trends.
• It provides a large database of clients and important companies, with the contacts of managers and executive staff.
• Allows us to export the list of contacts and clients to Excel or Salesforce for the weekly reports that we make in the agency.

Incentivized

• At times it doesn't pull a social profile for the contact correctly, or at all, when I know the person has a profile.
• The interface is a little clunky, and the font is too large. It could be a lot smaller and still effective.
• It takes a lot of time to sync at points, which is frustrating.

Incentivized

• The contact info can be somewhat stale...it pays to double-check LinkedIn first to see if a particular contact still has that position.
• Would like to see more info on lesser-known brands, since the big brands often mentioned are already inundated with sales inquiries.

The thing that Charlie does best is it aggregates everything in one place. It allows me to have a one-stop shop, that I can quickly review prior to heading into a meeting. People are usually amazed with the amount of info that Charlie can give you, and it almost always works its way into my sales call.

I've used a few different services like Winmo, one of them being seamless. Winmo was a lot easier to use and the information that I gather from Winmo seems to be a lot more accurate and easy to navigate. User experience is a big deal, the easier to find information the better.

Incentivized

• The info I pull from Charlie prior to the meeting is almost always brought up as a conversation starter.
• Charlie helps my relationships go deeper than just surface level info.
• The ability to go deeper in my relationships while using Charlie has absolutely closed me business.

Incentivized

• There has been a positive ROI in terms of list building.
• The ROI has also been positive in terms of competitive research.
• The ROI has been negative in terms of data quality. When the sales team actually starts using the data as-is without putting in some of their own time to clean the data.
