    If you're trying to find or build prompts for your team to get the data they need to make them go ahead. For example, we use it to find our accounts and prospects who are using voice agents. It was very valuable to get that information. So yeah, definitely you can use that.

    PersistIQ is well suited for outbound marketing. It's great for setting up sales and marketing campaigns to new and prospective clients. The fact that PersistIQ emails are basic (they look like normal personal emails) and easy to personalize, makes the whole process feel more genuine than, say, MailChimp. PersistIQ won't replace a bulk emailing tool or CRM. It serves a different purpose than, for example, Marketo or MailChimp, two products we also use

    Pros
    HG Insights
    • It works great for seeing if the site or app for a company is hosted on AWS.
    • Intricately uses a different approach (vs the other tools we use) - which helps confirm from another angle.
    • It has a great google chrome plug-in.
    • UI/UX is modern and clean.

    • Integrates well with tools that work with LinkedIn Sales Navigator to scrap lead emails.
    • Makes it easy to manage large-scale cold email campaigns with 3+ steps.
    • When a prospect replies to an email, it doesn't send them any of the automated emails which allow me to follow-up with those warm leads correctly.

    Cons
    HG Insights
    • integration with SFDC could be better
    • Sometime provides back an incorrect/no match when a better is available from an uploaded file, though this is getting slightly better
    • A way to gauge how many hits you will get off an intent topic before selecting them so you don't feel like one is going to waste could be useful.

    • I wish there was a way to send more than 1,000 emails per day.
    • If it had more integrations with data scrapers or ways to add new leads it would be much better.
    • I'd like a way to go deeper into a lot of my stats on various emails.

    We are using it to identifying Account that uses Support tool and it has been a huge game changer for our organization as it has helped Sales team when they are prospecting Accounts to target these Accounts with knowledge that gives them the edge to win the deal. Plus using it with clay integration is very helpful for us.

    Usability
    HG Insights
    It’s very easy to use, and the team is very responsive and friendly to work with. The information is unique and usable and can complement some of the data we get from call recordings. The integration with Salesforce is easy to implement and offers good insights into our database.

    In my opinion, poor service, and in our experience, ignoring our advise on who our customers are.

    Terrible; non-existent. Weeks without replies, and no improvements in 4 months.

    - Sales Intel seems to be more of a direct competition. Their human research seems to be something interesting. Also the claim to focus on firmographics - We went with Bombora for intent technology in the past - We did not move forward with 6sense

    We decided on PersistIQ because it was cheaper than the incumbents and as we were starting we wanted to see if this would be helpful or relevant to us. We later discovered Apollo.io and we might switch to them as they are also cheap and look better, but we might also get back to manual emailing and Linkedin connecting.

    Return on Investment
    HG Insights
    • I don't massively get involved in financial matters, but the propensity models we use internally to help run our campaigns are certainly a big factor when our sales people approach our clients.
    • Every campaign sold now comes with a flat data fee for us to run and use a propensity model for the activity we complete on behalf of our clients.
    • Whilst the client will never see the raw data behind the model (of which HG does play a part along with our other data sources) they are briefed on the methodology and reasoning behind them.

    • Using PersistIQ has allowed us to engage more people more quickly than other outbound processes. So, more leads.
    • We're able to understand message performance more rapidly and readily having used PersistIQ.
    • PersistIQ has improved our bottom line by getting us more leads. So, increased ROI.
