Avoid Definitive Healthcare
Use Cases and Deployment Scope
We licensed Definitive Healthcare's data to use for prospecting in healthcare. We found it clumsy and non-intuitive, but by far, the biggest issue was the error rates - we experienced errors as high as 30% on some lists.
Pros
- Sales person was very persuasive.
- I feel customer success was nice but not helpful.
- In my opinion, they do a good job of locking licensees into contracts where they have all the leverage.
Cons
- In my experience, the data is shot full of errors. We couldn't use it
- Definitive Healthcare needs better data
- I know a contact who moved employers 6 mos ago - his data in Definitive Healthcare is STILL INCORRECT
Likelihood to Recommend
I think the best scenario for using Definitive Healthcare is if accuracy isn't very important. If you just want to spam a lot of people and you don't really care where the contacts land, they're your vendor.
If, on the other hand, you like accuracy and are hoping the commercial list vendor supplies data that will help your business grow, I feel they are less well suited to those use cases.
