Likelihood to Recommend I recently was asked by my boss to try to drum up some business with a certain 500 million annual revenue company. When I searched for Contacts, a list of over 800 employees popped up. I was able to filter by department, and this pared the list down To a much more manageable 15 names with associated contact information. I was then able to sort further and select the names of all the employees that had an email or phone number listed.

Oftentimes emails for C-level personnel cannot be located on the company website or easily found elsewhere online. Read full review It is simple to use and comprehend. It enables data collection and analysis. It leads to growth and development. It applies to both contacts and accounts. It can enrich data based on company and individual, allowing businesses to better plan and execute. Read full review Cons We should be able to "exclude" words from titles or company names Able to access titles and email addresses more easily - not look at list first, select find matching contacts button, then go back to sort to add titles contain and email addresses, etc. This is a two-step process to get what I need. Read full review In the form selection, if a company name does not exist in the database, the lead can choose "not me" then that actual data value overwrites what they originally put. In the future, if they choose not me to default to the lead entered data value. This is something they know and I'm told they are working on it. Read full review Likelihood to Renew We have been D&B Hoovers customers for a long time. We know the good and bad, and we have learned to utilize D&B Hoovers for the good and unfortunately we have to look at other data sources to compensate for the areas where they are bad. If D&B Hoovers can get better in these other areas as mentioned in other places in the review, they could get a larger dollar spend from my company

Read full review Implementation Rating for our use case, the implementation was minimal and we did not need a lot of help. The D&B Hoovers platform is pretty intuitive and our account manager was ready for any questions that came up when we use the D&B Hoovers platform
Read full review Alternatives Considered The company information provided by D & B hoovers is extremely in-depth and in detail, the accuracy of the information provided gives a very good idea about the prospective company and helps in making cohorts and evaluation fit. As compared to other companies D & B hoovers is not as efficient in detecting buyer intent which other tools like
Slintel are very good at. D & B Hoovers gives amazing company info however it can improve on sharing information about buyer intent. Sales Navigator by far provides extremely accurate information with is almost 100% accurate. However, Navigator does not provide buyer intent information.

It helps us create lookalike profiles and provide us with account and contact data that fit

Read full review Return on Investment Honestly cannot say we really drove any new sales using D&B Hoovers to prospect new companies and leads. We obtained higher data quality with other tools like ZoomInfo and Skrapp. A year long contract that isn't honored on their side due to lack of customer service and poor data quality definitely does not equal ROI. Spent significant time sanitizing and cleansing inaccurate data provided by their service. Since time is money in business, that was a loss in that aspect.

We also noticed an increase in our web traffic (corporate website) after we started using Reachforce. More customers took notice of our digital marketing efforts after we started using Reachforce.
