Node.io (discontinued) vs. Winmo

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!

Winmo is best suited when you know which company you are looking for, but are missing some information, including key contacts, agency relationships, and quarterly advertising budgets. Scenarios where it is less appropriate are when you already know which company/contact you are looking for, and you are merely looking for company info to provide context

Incentivized

• 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

• Allows us to view information from companies in the industry to stay on top of industry news and trends.
• It provides a large database of clients and important companies, with the contacts of managers and executive staff.
• Allows us to export the list of contacts and clients to Excel or Salesforce for the weekly reports that we make in the agency.

Incentivized

• More focus on the display of scanned documents
• Easier recall and presentation of scanned documents
• Lag times between entering an Action and seeing it appear

Incentivized

• The contact info can be somewhat stale...it pays to double-check LinkedIn first to see if a particular contact still has that position.
• Would like to see more info on lesser-known brands, since the big brands often mentioned are already inundated with sales inquiries.

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.

I've used a few different services like Winmo, one of them being seamless. Winmo was a lot easier to use and the information that I gather from Winmo seems to be a lot more accurate and easy to navigate. User experience is a big deal, the easier to find information the better.

Incentivized

• 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

• There has been a positive ROI in terms of list building.
• The ROI has also been positive in terms of competitive research.
• The ROI has been negative in terms of data quality. When the sales team actually starts using the data as-is without putting in some of their own time to clean the data.
