D&B Hoovers
If you're with a big company that can afford to pay $500 - 1000 per month or more for data, then this platform may have a lot of value for you. That's in part because you could use it to produce actionable insights on a mass scale and you may not be worried about the cost of incorrect data. If your company is a smaller company working on a budget, this most likely is not the solution for you.

ONESOURCE
ONESOURCE is well suited for organizations that want to maintain their compliance efforts within a single platform. Most of the software looks and operates in a similar manner, which makes it easy to navigate and integrate yourself into additional products. Additionally, the ONESOURCE platform is a great platform for anyone looking for a provider that stays on top of tax law changes and will quickly integrate the changes into their product.

Pros
D&B Hoovers
- Hoover's has good information architecture in one sense that allowed you to keep track of where you have looked and also add anticipatory links for things you might like to research or know.
- It was great for finding a more complete picture of the companies history.
- It was helpful for piecing together contact information for people you may not have known worked there.

- ONESOURCE allows for easy implementation. We were able to implement the product in a few weeks.
- ONESOURCE provides detailed records that provide support for the groupings on the tax return. This will assist in providing documentation to auditors in a timely fashion.

- There are virtually no areas where this software can improve. This is elite b2b software that businesses who care about their prospecting/sales campaigns use.
- Other than the software, the price itself can improve so start up businesses are more inclined to make the purchase.

- ONESOURCE absolutely needs to restore their TIN Matching feature. Not having a TIN Matching feature is huge and needs to be addressed immediately.
- The software interface itself is outdated and clunky. It is way behind in terms of user-friendliness and convenience. Additionally, it is only compatible with Internet Explorer. ONESOURCE is literally the only reason I would ever access Internet Explorer which is notably slower and more prone to freezing than Google Chrome or Safari. A good portion of our business uses Macs which means they are SOL on accessing ONESOURCE.
- The ability to look at multiple tax years for a single recipient would be huge. Currently, if a recipient asks us to pull three years of data, this means three different searches within each year's ONESOURCE instance. It's tedious and could be improved.

Hoover's just isn't compelling for the types of information they provide and the pricing model. But again, this is from the very limited perspective of a below entry level analyst who is just finishing their studies. It is probable that for some segments of industry, Hoover's has vast wealth of pertinent information. For example, when looking into agricultural industries for a consulting firm, I did not save any time with their service because information on factory locations and assets was scant. Using Google earth to view the square footage of the facilities to estimate assets was often more helpful.

They are terrific at giving instruction/webinars. I am able to call, directly, to an individual and talk to that person. I'm not talking to a robot. They give personal service which is really special.

Often times they never respond to emails. Ignored us until we threatened to cancel one of their products.

D&B stacks up but not very high. ZoomInfo is in the lead for newer-looking technology and data quality. Sales Navigator is a powerhouse in the space and probably has the whole package that I'd want during prospecting except for the business code. Crunchbase has newer information and industry trends that are hard to beat. Hopefully D&B can modernize to stack up and make a more appealing UI/UX.

Sabrix/Onesource provides truly global content - Vertex is not there yet. If a business operates in US only, both Sabrix and Vertex would be good choices.

- 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.

- Without the use of ONESOURCE Transfer Pricing, we wouldn't be able to turn out transfer pricing documentation on our own. We have approximately 125 transfer pricing reports a year that require preparation, and outsourcing those at $15-25,000 a piece isn't feasible. We pay less than $50,000 annually for ONESOURCE Transfer Pricing and can now turn out as many reports as we need for a flat fee.
- ONESOURCE BEPS Action Manager ("BAM") allows us to prepare both our Country by Country Report and our Master File in house. We had received quotes from accounting firms in the range of $100-200,000 annually for a Country by Country Report and $50,000 for a Master File annually. For a $20,000 investment annually in BAM, we can complete both in house.
