FullContact vs. Synthio

This is a quick and easy way to upload information from business cards to your current contact database. It can be used by those who are organizing email marketing campaigns. It is also good for personal use -- since it organizes all available information about any given contact it is a great resource for looking up people before meetings and doing other types of background research

Undoubtedly this is the ideal software for the sales and marketing department, as it saves a lot of time in the search for customers and has tools that automate many processes that were previously manual. This is one of the programs we have worked with the best, that is why we recommend it.

• Sharing contacts.
• Easy to edit.
• Nice interface.

Incentivized

• Extensive search filters
• Email verification prior to download/charge
• Helpful customer service who you can work directly with to pull lists. It's great to work with someone who can tell you exactly how many verified leads you could pull without having to use credits.

Incentivized

• Needs to allow for more than 50 business card transcriptions per month
• Sometimes tries to merge contacts that are not the same person
• Does not sync individual account with business account

Incentivized

• Lead quality isn't always the best - as with many databases of this nature. We have to expect that we'll have a high bounce and unsubscribe rate when using these leads.

This is my new favorite app for organizing contacts and segmenting email lists. It is also the only app I have used that will transcribe business cards with 100% accuracy (they use humans to enter info from pictures of cards rather than software, like most other apps). The "merge contact" feature is great and allows you to review the contacts being merged before doing so automatically. It also integrates with Google accounts, LinkedIn, Twitter, and Yahoo. Another great feature is the ability to export data in a file, which you can then upload to your regular CRM software or to Constant Contact. I wish it would allow for more business card uploads per month. Even the paid subscription has a limit of 50 cards per month. I contacted customer support to inquire about increasing this limit and was told that I would need to upgrade to a yearly contract in order to do so. If FullContact continues to be useful, I will likely upgrade. However, given that the business card contacts is one of this software's best features, I was disappointed that this allowance could not be increased. Overall, however, I would highly recommend FullContact

Just make sure the app is not syncing on multiple devices at once -- this will cause a delay

Their support is very responsive and friendly.

Very user-friendly, especially since it aggregates information from Google every day to update contacts.

Basic materials explaining account setup and how to manage your list. It doesn't take much training to become proficient

Downloading the contacts to use in email marketing campaigns is the most difficult part of implementation.

FullContact has pretty much the best bang for your buck as far as the different features offered. You can do a lot of different things with it and it's all online or in an app on your phones. Easy access to the most accurate information available at your fingertips is pretty awesome

I feel similar about all of these list building/append services. There are good and bad aspects.

Incentivized

Easily updates contact information

Incentivized

• Positive that the time is not spent updating individual phones.
• Negative in that if someone alters a contact, it will need fixed.
• Positive that users don't waste time calling wrong numbers.

Incentivized

• Positive - We've been able to append records and add them to our targeted marketing campaigns.
• Negative - We've added some junk to our database, as a result, which has affected our deliverability rates.
• Negative - We did get a complaint and inquiry from one particular record about sending them an unsolicited email.
