The competition may be more accurate with contact info, but D&B Hoovers is good for verifying company info, searching for companies, and building lists based on location, SIC code, and company size.
we have both platforms and I use them interchangeably. D&B Hoovers is great because I can export more contacts. Zoom info is a bit more strategic with the use of filters like "with intent" and also has a better company overview page. Both are good platforms that can be used …
I feel like the D&B Hoovers company profile information is more accurate, whereas ZoomInfo has somewhat inflated numbers for annual revenues or employee headcount. When I compared the two companies a few years ago, the D&B Hoovers platform subscription was a bit higher annually …
D&B is good at company info and data structure, all records have data (sic codes, industries, sales rev). Some of this data is correct some is not. For example, Sales Revenue for private companies can be extremely off and sometimes not updated for years. Also, Number of …
I find more current information with Apollo.io. I can integrate in their LinkedIn feature, sequencing, etc. With Kennected, it is pure sales related to LinkedIn.
Industrial Info Services is updated on a daily basis. While it might not have as many companies listed, we can request more information on any company and they will do the digging.
I have not used any other competitive products. D&B Hoovers is the first solution I have used and I would not look into other solutions because D&B Hoovers meets my needs completely.
CapIQ has more information, especially on public companies. When it comes to mid-size private/smaller private companies they can be fairly similar with the information they provide.
D&B Hoovers blows their competition out of the water. After the first demo we were sold. The capabilities of the solution and the accuracy of information is unmatched.
I use both systems currently to test the data accuracy between the two. Its too new to tell yet.

Chose D&B Hoovers
D&B Hoovers had more accurate data than Apollo and fit the needs of our campaign more accurately. D&B has much better financial data about a company than Apollo.
D&B Hoovers has the most contacts available, as well as a lot more contact information than the others I have used. The customer service has been excellent as well.
It depends upon the situation mostly I prefer D&B Hoovers because of the data relevancy but sometimes it happens Hoovers is not working or is unable to find the details which I required then I move to S&P Capital IQ.
D&B is much more robust than any other database I’ve used. It offers more info and volumes of information stored in one place versus using regular search engines or paying for other types of similar reports
