Lattice Engines (discontinued) vs. Leadspace

Lattice has been difficult to work with in the past few months. We've struggled internally to try and improve their models, but it hasn't proven itself to offer substantial value. We're able to suppress low quality leads, but Lattice also promotes some questionable leads at times and also grades high potential leads as low scoring. We've tried time and time again to improve the model, but they haven't offered much in terms of help or partnership.

No matter how specialized the integration or how much support for internal services was provided throughout the creation of the solution, Leadspace support was always available and extremely prompt in helping to smooth out any issues that developed during the setup process.

• Ease of use. It is a no brainer for our sales teams. They go through just 10 minutes of training. It is very prescriptive and clear. There is a minimal amount of flipping to get through what they need to. Everything is just on one screen.
• Integration to Salesforce.com. The level of integration today is moderate. It integrates opportunity to opportunity. As soon as a sales person converts, it flows.
• They are highly responsive as a vendor. If there’s a field that we want to add, they will adapt the product for us very quickly.
• The model for professional services (fee based) is very flexible. It’s as much as you need. They advocate high service level for ramping new regions, and are very flexible with feet on the ground and helping out.

• 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.

• Detailed technographic information - we had a lot of issues with Lattice not being able to identify specific technologies being used by a company, which would be able to provide us materially different context as a seller.
• Model is built once and is static until refreshed - do not get meaningful feedback into the model in real-time
• Hard to identify which attributes are meaningful enough to include as enrichment in SFDC.

• 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.

I will continue to use PRISM, especially now, because I after 3 years in the same geography, I have just transferred to a new territory. The tool really helps me focus on the best opportunities to pursue, which can sometimes be difficult with over 100 assigned accounts

Nothing else to add

The product is part of a service. The team from Lattice did a great job of supporting us and of delivering the results we set out to attain. They became an integral part of our success.

We have not had any outages.

The Lattice team kept the timelines we agreed to and pushed the envelop to deliver ahead of time when we needed it.

It's very good. They are very responsive. They aren’t pushy on providing too much. They are very transparent about what you’re getting and paying for

Please see my answers to the previous question. We had very good feedback from our product management, strategy and sales leadership and reps regarding our training.

I have just watched videos. They have very good pure video based training for high level. I have seen the training for reps. It is not very complex

The implementation hit the milestones we established. Lattice was VERY committed to helping us make sure what we committed back to the organization was met.

Lattice was an incumbent tool from several years ago. Early on, we enjoyed a good relationship with the team there. After the acquisition, we have definitely seen a decrease in the quality of support and engagement from the team. As a result, we will look at several competing vendors when our contract ends with Lattice.

1. This tool and database trumped others because of the flexible way in which they reported the data. 2. The team is helpful in figuring out our needs to give us the information we were looking for. 3. Their Account team is very helpful, responsive & fun to work. 4. It helps us create lookalike profiles and provide us with account and contact data that fit

• We have seen quantifiable ROI when our reps have used the product to target accounts. In a recent example we found that accounts that targeted these "hi-po" accounts identified by using Lattice analytics created over $27M in pipeline over a month long period for a key product we are interested in selling more of to customers, compared to a less than $1M for accounts that were not identified as "hi-po".

• We were able to capture new leads for our sales team and also new subscribers of our e-newsletters through email marketing campaigns. 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.
