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.

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.

Bombora Intent data

Score 6 out of 10

We looked to use Bombora to help at bringing intent data to our sales reps. Our Sales reps use the intent data to make account plans and reach out to prioritized buyers in their territory. We also integrate it with Salesforce and Outreach so we can surface actionable insights for our reps to action off of.
  • Intent data
  • 3rd party integration
  • SFDC integration
  • Outreach notifications
  • Contact information
  • Admin UX
Bombora is well suited in the B2B SaaS space but will need to continue to innovate given the emerging presence of intent providers. ZoomInfo, LinkedIn, G2, TechTarget, and 6Sense....just to name a few of the ones we see internally here that also provide intent data. We need a way to easily visualize all this intent data into one pane of glass for our reps.
  • Allow us to engage with buying team.
  • More engaged contacts
  • Complimentary data
  • Intent data
  • Surging topics
  • Integrations
Fairly intuitive and easy to integrate Bombora with their partners such as Outreach and Salesforce. There are a handful of limitations in the Outreach integration that limit what you can surface up, especially in our use case where our inside sales team following up on leads don't own the accounts so they were not notified of surging accounts.
From what I've gathered, Bombora does a decent job at sourcing their intent data. While intent at times can be tricky, we have had a few complaints about the quality of insights Bombora has pushed to our systems. With more and more laws and regulations being passed this will be something that is top of mind for us as we evaluate our data governance strategy.

Our Client Services department at PrograMetrix uses Bombora's technology and proprietary data sets to drive campaign insights and to improve campaign performance for our B2B clients. Bombora's tools and data help our clients target high-value business accounts, helps our clients understand which brands visit their website, and it helps our clients report on key accounts that have been exposed to our B2B programmatic campaigns that later convert. Overall, Bombora's technology and data sets help our clients better target B2B accounts on their sales/marketing lists and help improve reporting for paid media campaigns.
  • Proprietary B2B data sets for audience targeting
  • Company Surge data
  • Sales intelligence
  • Integrations with various ad tech and martech platforms
  • Login reporting for agency partners and B2B brands
  • Sales/marketing material and customer support
  • Easier data deployment across multiple platforms
  • More proactive customer support and strategy for agency partners
  • Sales training for agency partners to resell Bombora's technology and data
Bombora is an industry-leading solution for B2B marketers and agencies that are trying to find better ways to target key decision-makers on a targeted "account list" or account-based marketing (ABM). To best leverage Bombora's technology, companies should be prepared to purchase Company Surge data and integrate Bombora's reporting tools. If B2B brands don't have the budget to invest in Bombora's full suite of solutions, they should instead opt to purchase "stock" Bombora B2B data segments from mainstream DSPs.
  • Company Surge data
  • ABM solutions
  • Sales intelligence tools
  • Reporting platform
  • Improved ROI for our clients
  • Less media waste for our clients
  • Improved B2B / ABM reporting for our clients
  • Greater efficiencies for our Client Services department in media planning for our B2B clients
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.
