MediaRadar vs. TechTarget Priority Engine

It's a great research tool to give someone a direction but it's definitely not the most accurate tool. The agency hierarchy (it shows the holding company structures) and client relationships are awesome. Certain webcrawler activities should available in reports but on the other hand MR builts custom reports if needed. Overall, it's a great tool for sales development. It helps sales and marketing to get started but not to rely on it 100%.

TechTarget would notify us when prospects looked us up by name or specifically researched areas where our product would prove beneficial. It did a great job gauging legitimate interest from the prospect and gave an idea of a timeline as well so that we could understand their urgency.

• One of the strengths of Media Radar is that it has a lot of brands in the database. The big money spenders are there, along with smaller brands and startups. This is helpful when I'm looking for information for smaller brands, because I cannot say the same about other products I use.
• The contact information is super organized and the site overall is very user-friendly.

• Contact Info is pretty good. I've occasionally found better data than I can get from our chosen lead solution.
• I don't know of another alternative source, but TechTarget provides data on content that people are researching.
• TechTarget provides current tech stack for companies that I'm researching.

• I think the user interface could use improvement.
• Would be nice to have more accurate phone # information.
• Could be updated more frequently.

• It is not particularly intuitive
• Too many steps to get where I need to go
• Needs to provide more depth to help determine urgency and intent to buy
• Response rate from contacting leads based on search behaviors was almost nil. This may be partially due to messaging on our end.

Usability is great, we would love to see how strong the intent is for every keywords

I'm just a business user of TechTarget so I really haven't had the chance to gauge what the support is from a customer standpoint. Given that we recently rolled it out and everyone is utilizing it daily I would assume that their support is strong enough for us to continues to use it.

MediaRadar is what my company chooses to use for this purpose because of a few specific unique things it does, such as tracking competitors and allowing us to make mock-ups.

TechTargets Priority Engine's interface and customizable features were easier to use and better organized than ZoomInfo's. I like the custom alerts that TechTarget provided, and I'm not sure ZoomInfo had the same feature. I would get email alerts any time a target customer read a white paper or downloaded a brochure, which made my timing for prospecting much easier. I do believe ZoomInfo's company directories are more robust and wide-spread

• Given the spend amounts in media, finding the right contacts has a big ROI.
• Saves a lot of time by giving you the media/marketing contacts you're looking for in media.
• They have a concierge to help you if it's missing contacts.

• It is best when used in conjunction with all of our other tooling and not used alone
• It has enabled my team to have a better feel for what is happening at a prospect's company
• It sometimes consumes too many hours in the day waiting on data to load, and time is wasted toggling between pages
