TechTarget Priority Engine vs. ZoomInfo Sales

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.

I have found it to work best combined with LinkedIn Sales Nav. I use the filters on the sales navigation search to find people I wish to target, then use the sidebar to export individuals with the correct information into our CRM quickly. That is my bread-and-butter play as a BDR; I'm in there every day. It is also helpful to quickly check a company's revenue and employee count.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

I'm not the contact. But I see it is where things are moving and if you don't have the information ZoomInfo gathers and continues to be more honed in on our customer or prospective customers, we will lose any advantages we once had and will be left behind.

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

Overall super simple to use. You do not need any training to use it, just a couple of minutes as it is very intuitive. I love using it because it has everything in one place except cadence. The filters on accounts and prospects is very easy to use as well.

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.

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

There would have nice while providing a great platform to use, to have an in person class to show how it would best serve us and to navigate. Nothing was provided to myself outside of having a sign on and the preloaded steps to get through basic processes

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

There’s a few not listed. All in all, ZoomInfo Sales is an essential tool if you’re hunting hard and often. The AI functionality is superior to anything else I’ve used. However, if you’re a come and go, now and then prospector you can get by with other search engines that are “static” or seeming to be lacking in current data. LI Sales Nav is great, but you’re not going to get ahold of normal mid level people on there, and contact details are protected. The biggest competitive benefit here is you get everything you could possibly want to know, I’m not aware of any other product that can hang.

• 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

Incentivized

• Zoominfo Sales has reduced our company research effort by at least 80%. We now have all the information in one place.
• TAM (total addressable market) data accuracy is significant.
• AOP planning is flawless, i.e., allocating budget, sales resources, etc., by territory.
