LinkedIn Sales Navigator for Gmail vs. UpLead

The Sales Navigator has allowed us to increase our awareness of our potential lead pool and has allowed us to grow our customer base. The system is easy to use and allows us to have great control over the number of leads we can see and the number of leads that we can connect to. Using the system has also helped us in being able to manage the number of leads that we can send.

UpLead is well suited for environments where there is a lot of accurate contact information to research mainly generating sales for a business. On the other hand, businesses that don't require searching up a huge amount of contact data and that doesn't add up to the sales of a business do not need to use this software.

• Has many filter capabilities for me to find exactly who I am looking for.
• Integrates with other prospecting tools to create a well rounded with the information it can collect.
• Integrates with SFDC- automatically uploads them as leads.
• Integrates with Salesloft for me to easily start the cadence.

• UpLead is one of the best B2B platforms available in the market which deals in offering the highest quality contacts and different companies’ data.
• It has the best and updated real-time email verification, having contacts worldwide, technology tracking, account-based marketing, and robust API.
• The integration of UpLead with other platforms is up to the mark. It allows users to integrate UpLead with other renowned software to have the best possible workspace to work on.

• Sometimes it tells me I need to log into my LinkedIn profile when I've already logged in. It's weird. It seems to be when the email address is not found. Instead of just saying the email is not found, it tells me I need to log in. Just something I've noticed.
• Sometimes I get this weird thing where I go to compose an email and instead of having it open all the way to the right, it opens all the way to my left. I'm pretty sure Rapportive is what's causing it. It doesn't happen very often but sometimes I see that.

• I would like to see an easier way to enter a contacts name to get immediate information
• I would like to see more access to comparable competitors to the company I am searching
• It would be great if UpLead would suggest targets based upon criteria I can load

Rapportive is simple and great at what it does. Plus I anticipate they'll probably add more features in the future.

For all the reasons I've already mentioned this is a first rate search service a must of your in B2B sales!

LinkedIn Sales Navigators provides different services than most other products and has the unique ability to take advantage of LinkedIn's proprietary user data. That also comes with a drawback that the system is dependent on users to update their data in a timely and accurate manner in order to get the correct intel back to users. I'd recommend other products like Seamless.ai or MediaRadar for more accurate and updated contact information, but also to use LinkedIn Sales Navigator for Gmail for better market and company intel, timely pitching opportunities and seamless integration between Gmail and LinkedIn.

I think ZoomInfo is a better lead generation tool. But I think UpLead is the better value for the money. I used ZoomInfo every day for 2 years so right now it's not a fair comparison. So it's possible that UpLead may catch up. I have not been using UpLead every day yet.

• Really lets me leverage my entire business network
• Empowers me to see the prospect's whole picture (who they know, where they went, what they do) and take advantage of that opening
• We have no other system like it, so it's irreplaceable for us

• I haven't been using UpLead long but I have generated interest in our company with several large accounts. Each one of them can add several million in revenue to our company.
• A huge time saver is to be able to send out email blasts to potential clients I've downloaded from UpLead.
• Securing any one of the prospects I'm working on through UpLead can easily pay for the investment 10 times over.
• Most of the salespeople in our company are asking me where I'm getting my leads from.
