What is Bombora?

Bombora provides Intent data for B2B marketers. Bombora’s data promises to align marketing and sales teams and enable them to base their actions on the knowledge of which companies are in market for products and services. Bombora’s Company Surge™ data reports on changes in consumption of specific product related topics from within businesses. The source of this data is a co-operative of premium B2B media companies in the world. Members contribute content consumption and behavioral data about their audiences. In turn, they can better understand their audiences, serve advertisers and monetize their inventory.

Bombora offers three products: Company Surge™ Analytics, Audience Solutions, and Measurement.

Company Surge™ aggregates the content consumption activity of millions of B2B organizations and informs you when target organizations are showing an increase in consumption, therefore indicating active demand for your products or services.

Audience Solutions allows businesses to effortlessly execute ABM strategies by incorporating Bombora’s audiences and Company Surge™ data into a preferred media activation partner and reach target accounts across every channel.

Bombora leverages its access to business research behavior at nearly three million B2B organizations to provide insight into the composition and engagement behavior of your adcreative, website, or landing page audience.

They are different platforms, we actually think they both work in unison, as Bombora does not provide as much granular information on the company and who is actually searching, however, they provide a stronger initial overview of user intent than other products and a holistic picture so we can see what actual topics the company is searching for to be able to approach them effectively.

Albacross is more specific to anon user identification on our personal site, which is exact product buying intent rather than just industry. Bombora give broader insight, Albacross more specified.

On a par, we use all three of these either currently or in the past
Each tool has its benefits it would be good for the tools to co-exist and learn to further the improvement
Bombora is the current go to and continues to deliver - that said the marketplace is competitive, so we need to continually assess the market best

Having a true understanding of WHERE the data comes from and how it is collected was a question no other intent data providers could give us a straight answer on. With Bombora, we know exactly where it comes from, how it's scored, and what our next step is to leverage the data.

Bombora doesn't give you a token for the number of accounts that are populated. You can search and request as many as you'd like. With other platforms, they provide you a token, and if you use all your tokens for the month, then you have to wait til next month.

Bombora has a far lower expense for the service, despite the quality of data. It is a big enough gap to be a major factor in deciding which product to use, for still excellent quality data in comparison to Clearbit. It is also much easier to integrate with our services.

While we use both TechTarget and Bombora at our company, Bombora provides a better high level view for our Marketing department to use for our various programs and initiatives. On the other hand, TechTarget is a better tool for Sales to easily identify prospects with high intent and go after them.

I do not have a ton of experience with the other products but from the demos and calls I was on Bombora was the leading product in this area.

Additionally, the main deciding factor about choosing Bombora was their stellar sales team that prioritized our business needs over any features that the other companies were pushing down on us.

If Bombora is the fuel for the engine (the data), then 6sense and Qualified are the airplanes. We were looking for more data/fuel to throw on our revenue generating engine and didn't need a full suite of features to automate our outreach for us. We are a small company and looking for maximum efficiency.

Leading B2B data provider

Bombora provides the best B2B targeting solutions for paid media relative to competitors. Madison Logic is a great B2B provider for brands looking to get content (e.g. case studies, white papers, eBooks, etc.) distributed and syndicated to a broader B2B audience. Bombora enables B2B agencies and brands to easily upload their ABM lists for audience targeting - just as turnkey as data onboarding through LiveRamp.

Bombora is still the best intent data provider but ZoomInfo is catching up very quick. ZoomInfo has a leg up on Bombora as they now have steaming intent data which updates daily, vs Bombora that only updates weekly. ZoomInfo is a one stop shop for B2B GTM data where Bombora is a one trick pony with only weekly intent data. I see ZoomInfo soon surpassing Bombora as the best intent data provider, collecting first party web intent, streaming intent, and weekly intent data signals.
