Read full review There are many LinkedIn automation products available, from Chrome extensions to desktop applications, to cloud-based apps like Skylead, and I've used many of them. Skylead stands apart with a simple, intuitive interface that is easy for my clients to use, is very economical compared to others, and is focused on continual improvement and customer service.
Read full review Pros Prospecting Lists/Lead Gen - Discover Org does this very well because of it's ability to provide current information (email/phone) on an individual at a company. It's easy to segment & drill down by categories - to find the right targets to reach out to. Insights - DiscoverOrg is great at providing insights or "scopes" on prospects as well. Meaning it will show who is handling what project (Decision-Maker) and what projects they are particularly interested in at the moment/what initiatives. For example, the scopes may show that they are interested in AI initiatives or a Merger & Acquisition or Digital Transformation & will say who is in charge of the initiative. Stellar filtering capabilities - you can filter lists in so many ways. You can go by function, or even look at companies with small marketing teams (let's say less than 10), or you can search for companies with an "x" amount of $ budget for IT spend. Or even companies that use a specific HR workplace management system. Read full review Convenient message inbox for responding to new leads. Ability to integrate with CRMs and other 3rd party software for more automation. Smart Sequences that use conditional logic to send LinkedIn messages as well as emails. Customer service is very responsive and super helpful. They are a pleasure to work with. Skylead is constantly improving and adding/updating features based on actual users' input via a feature request forum. Read full review Cons Speed - it can be quite slow at times. Improvement on the search capabilities - since there is so much to search (which is a plus) it makes it harder to do this in a timely manner. You have to dedicate a certain amount of time to be able to pull a proper, useful and clean list. Make it more user friendly - there are so many different tabs, search buttons, pull down, etc. I think it can be quite confusing to a new user. Read full review It would be nice to be able to add steps to a sequence in an existing campaign The user hierarchy is a little confusing, in terms of placing my end-user clients under my master account—a little unintuitive Similar to above, it would be nice to have an additional level of user access, for scenarios in which I have a client with multiple salespeople on the platform, each with their own login (as it is now, with access only to their own account), but also have a companywide admin account for a sales manager who has access to all of their accounts with one login (I think they are working on this feature). Read full review Likelihood to Renew The tool is simply better than most other lead/company data repositories, and they are dedicated to keeping their data clean, even if they are far from accomplishing this task at present. The tool works, and it is relatively easy to use. Overall, DiscoverOrg provides the level of lead/contact, customer, and even industry level data the sales orgs have come to expect from this sort of tool in a format that is fairly easy to use. They do also provide support for sales teams looking to use the tool effectively, which is great!

Read full review Alternatives Considered ZoomInfo acquired DiscoverOrg and I believe legacy DiscoverOrg will phase out in the near future.
ZoomInfo is 100x better than DiscoverOrg and are very pleased with it's functionality and easy of use. We only selected DiscoverOrg because we were on an auto-renewal contract and did not unsubscribe in time. We did not plan to renew DiscoverOrg. But since then we have been upgraded to
ZoomInfo and are finding much more value in that platform than we did in DiscoverOrg.
