Node.io (discontinued) vs. Prospect (tryprospect.com)

Earlier this week, we had a mishap where a client's birth certificate went missing while being transferred between departments. This could have been disastrous for both our employees and the client, but Sugar allowed for quick detective work that let us track the document's passage between specific employees, and the item was located and returned!

Its well suited If you find yourself manually placing contact details in CRMs or you're using multiple tools to find relevant and accurate contact details. Not so relevant if you already sheet of contact details and you can simply import it as a CSV in certain tools

• Customer profile and sales analyst features provide relevant information for sales calls.
• Node allows me to bring more vendors and more contacts in, allowing me to expand lists and connect with more accurate contacts.
• Node's collaborative nature is very appreciated when they keep on asking for feedback for improvement.

Incentivized

• Creating/updating contacts in Salesforce

Incentivized

• Minimizing minor bugs
• Being able to export contacts for varying accounts to corresponding tabs in Google Drive
• Being able to prospect more than 25 at a time

Super easy to use, the only thing I wish they would change is that you always need to check the prospects linkedin page to see if there's been an update to their contact (eg. if contact didnt have a mobile number saved, they may now, so you need to check linkedin every single time before reaching out). Other than that, this is by far the best tool for pulling numbers and emails.

Node excels when it comes to lead intelligence like account-level and market insights. Its lead management module gives better segmentation and account identification. It is a good choice for mid-size companies (50-1000 employees) and their quality of support is very satisfactory. Its searchable data gives accurate results and its ease of integration with Salesforce is an added advantage over its competitors.

zoominfo has old contact info, a lot of the time i look at specific people and their companies aren't updated. I get intent emailed to me from zoominfo for job changes and it will be 6-12 months after someone changed jobs so the information is just not accurate enough. apollo only pulls headquarters info, never had an accurate cell number from it so i stopped using it pretty quickly during our eval

• Our company has increased profits 20% from last year after implementing Sugar
• Our transfer to largely remote work has been hugely simplified by Sugar
• Despite an industry-wide "pandemic slump", the ease of use brought by Sugar has allowed us to remain a major player in tax assistance even as other companies have struggled

Incentivized

• I prefer using it from the SalesNav page compared to Zoominfo - seems way more up to date
• Allows me to massively scale my prospecting by keeping me in page and I don't have to look up and cross reference on other tools
• While it has a smaller set of functionality that I can use it for relative to Zoominfo, the things that it does do I've always felt it did a better job
• Really simple UI and doesn't prompt me to sign in every day which I appreciate.
