exporting contacts is relatively more budget conscious based on other platforms. Overall, it is a very user friendly platform with basic capabilities. If you want more advanced strategic use like buyer behavior and intent, you need to look elsewhere.

I recently was asked by my boss to try to drum up some business with a certain 500 million annual revenue company. When I searched for Contacts, a list of over 800 employees popped up. I was able to filter by department, and this pared the list down To a much more manageable 15 names with associated contact information. I was then able to sort further and select the names of all the employees that had an email or phone number listed.

If you are looking for a data provider with pretty good company profiles Hoovers is a great choice. They are currently NOT a leader in contact data. If you are looking for the best data provider for contact data, maybe not your best choice, but if you want to be able to be able to analyze all past clients or prospects to develop a "best fit" prospect profile, Hoovers could be a useful tool. If you are looking for a data provider to get direct phones, direct emails and every employee at a locations this is not the best option. Some of the other competitors who excel at contact data are lacking heavily in the company demographics, where Hoovers is does a good job.

Good system for an affordable price vs the competition. It does find some good D&B Hoovers info on companies and can verify accounts, but the contact info is not as updated and accurate as the competition. Looking up companies - is the best solution.

When I try to search on a particular account I found all the respective details of it in Hoovers like parent company, revenue, employees, mail id's, company address and more information about the company and their recent information. This a go to platform for me always when I found difficulty with other platforms.

Taper it to use with software (i.e. AI). It's good for basic searches, but I am not sure how else to use it. I called customer service/account manager to assist, but I just kept getting confused on how to use it efficiently. I need C-Suite level people & there is just not enough information about the C-Suite individual. Many times, there aren't any email, mobile, or correct LinkedIn links.

I love using D&B Hoovers for creating marketing email lists - very useful tool. The searching capabilities are incredible and I am able to really drill down to the specific target customer profile I am looking for. Understanding the size and organization of a business we are interested in targeting. Qualifying prospects to strategically target.

I think the most useful aspect of D&B Hoovers for us has been lead vetting, by far. Before D&B Hoovers we were usually going in blind, but now we have the tools to start informed discussions with potential clients and have more confidence right out of the gate! It's also helps us decide where to use our time. Some leads aren't worth too much of our time and being able to qualify them quickly has been a huge plus!

If you're looking for a comprehensive data set that is extremely accurate on company details, D&B shines. The larger the company or type of company that you're looking for, the better the D&B data is. It's very good at identifying who the key players, and decision makers are. It also excels at identifying the headcount of specific types of companies, and if they have locations domestically and/or internationally, where those locations are located.

Many consultants in our company look for a new chaselist whenever they start or are looking to expand into a new market. The D&B Hoovers tool helps a lot when it comes to this. In addition, there are requests that want to see how the market is broken down per industry and we tend to use Hoovers's data as a benchmark to see if it would make sense with our specialties.

I believe for most verticals, Hoovers is very well suited, however, since we work exclusively in the vet industry, I haven't found as much information from Hoovers as I thought I would.

It is a very useful tool for NAICS code if they are listed and if you can find the company. Could be more user friendly with searching. More fuzzy search options vs. specific or also easier ways to narrow down searches by state

D&B is good to do a quick lookup to see where the Company is based and what its NAICS code may be, although both of these things, especially NAICS code, need to be changed as they are wrong a lot of the time.

As I am from the research team and it is very useful and suited for me to to get the detailed information about companies including about their geography locations, their products, their recent and historical financial at one go and at one place without wondering here and there. It saves my time alot while doing researching. Also I have set my alerts for weekly newsletter so no need to set alerts again and again on their database just one time creation and everytime you get it in your inbox. Sometimes I feel for private companies data is less and it is less useful. They can improve this thing.

Well I would recommend D&B Hoovers as it is an essential part of one of my job tasks. Without it we wouldn't be able to research and find the contacts we need. It is useful when looking for companies and then people within it, the other way around is often more difficult. Sometimes the website is a bit slow.
