KickFire vs. ZoomInfo Sales

For small businesses that don't have big budgets for marketing automation, VisiStat is an ideal first step. For companies that have sophisticated systems in place, VisiStat will augment your analytics and provide a deeper dive into your website activity. Since the implementation involves adding javascript to your site, the user should be familiar with how to do this

ZoomInfo is well-suited for sales and marketing teams. The sales team can use it for research and prospecting, while marketing can use it for nurturing new prospects or previously prospected ones.Overall, ZoomInfo is a tool tailor-crafted for business and sales development teams. It helps them approach new prospects every day, even when contact numbers are not readily available.

• De-anonymizes website activity at the account (company) level.
• Identifies net new target accounts.
• Displays click path, time on page, time per session, and engagement level of each de-anonymized website visit.
• Gives great daily insight on watchlists you've set up.
• Delivers every possible de-anonymized visit with little filtering for accuracy.
• More on the watchlists. I really love that you can receive immediate alerts on website visits from accounts you've listed on your watchlists. This way, you never miss the window of opportunity to reach out to your key targets while they are currently on your site.
• Salesforce integration is good. KickFire pushes most recent website visits, pages visited, website click path, activity percent change, and more to the given account in Salesforce. You can then create reports and run them regularly to see which accounts are surging in website activity. This is also great for account prospecting, and for planning your sales outreach plan of attack. You can see which bits of your website content are most interesting to the company, and which products they are most interested in.

• Zoominfo provides us scoops regarding any new upcoming project or pain points (difficulties) facing by certain companies which helps a lot in our business to contact such companies.
• Zoominfo gives us the exaction info such as email address, Direct or Cell phone number of particular contact which we want and we don't get anywhere except zoominfo
• Zoominfo has huge database. Intent is one of the favorite section where we get the exact info about the companies/industries which we want
• Zoominfo Connects with Hubspot which is another benefit for us to add any specific contact directly to our HubSpot app.

• Some outdated information and your credits will be used
• Credit package sizes are not very customizable
• A tad pricy comapred to simillar prospecting tools I've seen

• For initial users, the system can be a little overwhelming. A ZoomInfor SalesOS Basics guide could be beneficial to keep new users from feeling lost amongst all the options.
• Clearer instructions on how to set targeted search parameters for inbound information would be beneficial.

We've been happy customers of VisiStat for many years. I've used the service at multiple companies and you can't beat it.

With the combined resources of crowdsorced info on both data.com as well as the immediacy of info on LinkedIn, as well as intel on Hoovers, information provided on ZoomInfo is more readily available if you have the time to invest in looking for it. However, at the pace we do business, having a "one stop shop" for information is very convenient. On efficiency alone, ZoomInfo is worth the price of subscription considering our business model.

It was designed for people who are business users, not tech users.

ZoomInfo is my go to service. This connected with Linkedin Recruiter has been an amazing tool to use in gaining some very useful and strong connections

We've never had any outages in the 7+ years using the system.

The system is very responsive, and when there are times in which data is loading, the VisiStat system provides humorous loading messages.

They are very good at solving cases that I bring to them. I'd like to see more proactive support to make sure we are getting the full value out of the solution.

I would give it a higher rating but they keep changing our account managers.

The tutorials are very good and they explain how to get started using the system. The online webinars are very good for advancing your knowledge of the product.

Don't hesitate to contact VisiStat support. They are extremely helpful.

I covered this pretty extensively in the cons. The key differentiator here is that KickFire serves up almost all the data (or so it seems) to the end client. The client then has to do their own work on interpreting it. This is good because it means we don't miss out on any website activities, but it's bad because we get a lot of false positives. 6sense uses the confidence score approach I mentioned in the Cons section, which means the match rates of the data we get are much higher. Our experience with Clearbit comes from other tools that are built on it (Bombora, Drift, etc.), and it has not been great. We've seen many more inaccuracies with Clearbit.

The size of data base, the bounce rate and accuracy. The extra features that you can have and the customer service. Whenever I have a question or help with something, my account manager is always available to help. And most importantly, the difference was the price. Although Zoominfo is not cheapest, it is the best value for your money.

We've gone from a few thousand unique visitors per month to nearly 200,000 unique visitors. VisiStat doesn't miss a beat.

• Faster lead conversion
• Less time on LinkedIn trying to figure out DM (decision maker)
• Increased employee efficiency

• Negative - In my experience, exports error but credits deduct. Trying to get these credits back, good luck getting a customer service rep to assist.
• Negative - In my experience, information provided for 0-5 employee companies inaccurate
• Negative - In my opinion, due to not being able to get the information and not honoring their guarantee, no revenue goals were met.
• Negative - I feel, for this size prospect, there is no time savings. You will still need to manually research the company on other sites or by cold calling to get the missing information.
