Product Details

What is DiscoverOrg (discontinued)?

DiscoverOrg was a sales and marketing intelligence tool used by technology vendors, staffing companies and consultants targeting IT, finance, marketing, engineering, technology and product development departments of Fortune-­ranked, mid­-market, and SMB companies in North America and Europe. DiscoverOrg specialized in mapping out org charts, including verified email addresses, direct-dial phone numbers, reporting structure, new projects and initiatives, and technology installed base.

ZoomInfo Technologies (formerly DiscoverOrg, which acquired and merged with ZoomInfo in 2019 and now operates under the ZoomInfo brand) has since combined all of the capabilities of the DiscoverOrg sales intelligence database into its flagship product, ZoomInfo. Readers interested in the DiscoverOrg database should investigate the ZoomInfo product instead.

In Sales Operations, Marketing, and Sales, we use DiscoverOrg and ZoomInfo to source leads as well as enrich our contacts in both Salesforce and Marketo. Our Sales teams (AE,ADM) use it to build corporate hierarchies and locate new accounts in their territories.
Pros and Cons
  • Data presentation with the app is organized once you are on the record in question
  • Syncing to Salesforce is easy with a few clicks.
  • Enriching our database on a weekly cadence with filtered queries
  • syncing with Marketo to lookup a contact by email and instantly enriching in Marketo
  • there are some big named accounts that have bad data in ZoomInfo... it's surprising.
  • they have a mechanism for reporting bad data, but there is no feedback at all, if/when they update their database.
Likelihood to Recommend
It's great for discovering new accounts and contacts at those accounts.
If you are in EMEA, you'll find the data is sparse.
It's a great way to keep your data enriched.

DiscoverOrg has been used to prospect for sales contacts. The entire sales team of 150 US-based sellers uses it. The data it provides is name, contact information including email, phone number and in many cases direct phone information. The system integrates easily into Hubspot and SFDC with the ability to export contacts and leads directly into these CRM systems.
Pros and Cons
  • Xfer of leads into CRM
  • Up-to-date information
  • Quick link to social media to get some background on your prospect (linked in, twitter, etc)
  • Pricing - foundation service does not include mobile numbers, you have to pay more
  • Pricing - one of the highest priced services
  • Data is never 100% up to date, but there is no way to flag this info or open up a query for them to update an error.
Likelihood to Recommend
Uses [of DiscoverOrg] include searching for prospects in accounts. Getting all of the relevant contact information in one place. Using the export button saves time by allowing you to select one or more leads to import into CRM. Sophisticated search allows for you to build lists, and export as above. Good support with various experts available to help you get started and get better at using it.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
DiscoverOrg was used by my company's business development team. Our main goal of using DiscoverOrg was to help identify account information (financials, addresses, technologies employed, org charts, etc) and specifically identify the key decision makers at these accounts who we want to add to marketing campaigns and include in our one-to-one sales outreach. Most recently, DiscoverOrg has upgraded us to the newest version of the platform, ZoomInfo, but this review is for the legacy platform, DiscoverOrg.
Pros and Cons
  • Org Charts of companies in the system
  • Contact information is generally correct, and if not, you are able to let the DiscoverOrg team know it needs to be updated.
  • Setting up alerts based on your given criteria.
  • The subscription service model. We only had access to 200 accounts.
  • Integration with our Salesforce CRM seemed to be a little wonky.
  • Account limits. Some of the account we were looking for were very small and not in the platform.
Likelihood to Recommend
DiscoverOrg is well suited for organizations that have a very defined target list and doesn't need a lot of bells and whistles. My company was capped at 200 accounts, but we were targeting far more than 200 accounts–leaving us with "locked" accounts, having to pay DiscoverOrg to unlock the accounts, etc.

Our Sales team consists of both account executives and business development reps. Our business development reps get lists of customers from AWS that are using AWS Cloud. We then have to run those lists of accounts through DiscoverOrg using the list match feature in order to find contacts at each of those companies to prospect. Using DiscoverOrg over ZoomInfo saves us hours at a time from having to manually look up contacts for those companies.
Pros and Cons
  • Access to data for small to medium sized organizations.
  • Data quality.
  • Sales intelligence.
  • UI/UX
  • Laggy when rolling out updates
Likelihood to Recommend
I think for any sales organization the relies on business development to drive new business vs. using traditional marketing DiscoverOrg is the most helpful tool they can use.

We utilize ZOOMINFO by DiscoverOrg for outbound prospecting. Primarily to find email addresses of prospects that meet our criteria for good fit clients. We utilize it primarily within the sales organization. It saves reps a gigantic amount of time to easily be able to find contact info for prospects rather than piecing it together using disparate online sources.
Pros and Cons
  • Advanced Search function (filtering by industry, job title, etc)
  • One click copy of email addresses to prospect quickly
  • Ability to use across many different platforms
  • Salesforce Integration
  • Sometimes contacts for government get mixed up with other organizations
  • More local government contacts would be a better fit
  • Sometimes it does not give the department the prospect works for
Likelihood to Recommend
This would be great for any sales team doing large scale outbound prospecting. It gives the email address and contact information. The advanced search feature is particularly helpful. It also stores your past searches so you can work off lists quite quickly. It would be less appropriate for sales teams that do not do much outbound prospecting.

DiscoverOrg has been an upper hand to spool contacts. We started it quite slowly and were able to get to the chase over a course of time. This valuable tool has been used by sales and marketing professionals who handle day to day client interactions.

With DiscoverOrg we are able to:
  • Get the right contacts
  • Locate clients easily
  • Easy report generation
  • No Technical glitches
Pros and Cons
  • Less time-consuming: Allows to easily spool contacts, get to the granular chase and target accounts that will benefit the business big time
  • Easy report generation: Allows to easily save/store contacts with flexible file formats, while this not primary, but it is an added advantage
  • User friendly: Highly intuitive UI that provides room for dynamic changes, easy to choose and get information portal
  • No room for improvement so far, yet to witness one

It is a best-fit for IT/Telecom and target businesses that predominantly prefer internet marketing over door-to-door.

We use DiscoverOrg to target specific accounts and for generating new prospecting within specific criteria. We use DiscoverOrg to find cyber and IT companies to prospect to. DiscoverOrg is great because it doesn't limit the number of contacts you have access to. Although, it's more expensive than other data subscriptions we have it is nice to pay an annual fee and not have to worry about the number of contacts/companies we can export.
It will be interesting to see the merge of DiscoverOrg and ZoomInfo and how this may make the cost and access to leads better and/or easier. Data from DiscoverOrg is accurate due to real data scrubbing and not AI performing the function. DiscoverOrg does away with the leg work to find the correct contact and contact information due to the research that is done by DiscoverOrg.
Pros and Cons
  • Scrubbing of data
  • Extent of search criteria
  • Shows what is not included in your subscription so you know it's there
  • Access to more job descriptions without added higher level subscription
Likelihood to Recommend
Any company that is looking for specific industries that DiscoverOrg maintains would benefit from choosing DiscoverOrg for a lead database. The cost is worth the lack of effort needed to source leads and now with the merge of ZoomInfo will make it even more fruitful to partner with DiscoverOrg on lead generation.

We use DiscoverOrg across our organization's marketing, sales, and delivery teams. We use the platform to build lists of accounts to target and individual prospects within those accounts. DiscoverOrg provides us with the contact data for these accounts and prospects and intel to make our prospecting efforts smarter. The platform dramatically decreases our time to build lists, making us more effective and efficient.
Pros and Cons
  • Extensive account/company database
  • Accurate prospect contact data
  • Easy to use
  • Industries could be sub-categorized more granularly
  • Price is expensive
Likelihood to Recommend
DiscoverOrg is well suited for organizations looking to build accurate sales prospecting lists with accurate, verified data more efficiently. However, due to the considerable price tag, the platform likely only makes sense for companies that have several sales reps or offer high ticket services.

I like the system the only issue I would say is the price. They have bumped the price 3x over the last few years and it really hasn't gotten that much better.

DiscoverOrg is used within our sales and marketing team. The main motto of using DiscoverOrg is to make a pipeline of sales funnel by getting a database using DiscoverOrg. It helps us by providing information about companies and contacts with relevant information which is of utmost use for the sales department. If only they have relevant information, then only they can pitch right party contacts, which leads them from suspecting to closures. DiscoverOrg is an excellent help to us since we start using it. To date, we have closed some very good accounts and got new logos for companies while using the information provided by DiscoverOrg.
Pros and Cons
  • Helping making lists of prospects
  • So many filters which can be used depend upon what type of list you want to fetch.
  • Timely scoops which help you to get real-time information about what companies looking after in the market
  • Updated contact information
  • Most contacts have emails that are of most use. Sometimes emails are better than having telephone num.
  • There is a cap on how much data you can download.
  • It would have been better if there is an option to directly transferred the downloaded data to CRM.
  • Sometimes information is not updated as on a few occasions when we check a person's LinkedIn profile it says person left the company and joined new, but it says old one in LinkedIn.
  • Frankly not too much to dislike about it. But there are few which I've already mentioned above.
Likelihood to Recommend
DiscoverOrg is doing it best for us since we start using it. As we work on vertical bases and it helps its best by giving options to put filters depends upon which vertical you want to look people for. One has leverage of putting so many filters depends upon the sweet spot of your organization, and you can fetch only that list. Once having a list in place, we can save it for future use. If required, we have the option of download the list, but the limitation is slightly an issue there.

DiscoverOrg is used at my org to build out contact lists for accounts we are targeting, to understand the org chart of these companies, and to gain their contact information.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope
DiscoverOrg was used within our company as a database to be able to access contact information for different perspective prospects. We used it as almost a "specialty tool," where if we couldn't find contacts with any of our other platforms, we would go to DiscoverOrg to obtain some hard to find information.
Pros and Cons
  • The data was almost always reliable, even more so than our other platforms (ZoomInfo, LinkedIn).
  • It was fantastic to look at organizational hierarchies. If we found a VP of IT, for example, we could find almost everyone that works under them via a hierarchy view.
  • It wasn't the easiest for new users to learn, but with enough practice, they could use it quite well.
  • There was a weird problem where on occasion if a person had a traditional "First name" as their last name, it would flip it. So someone named "John Allen" would become "Allen John" we ran into this more often than you would think.
Likelihood to Recommend
We used DiscoverOrg as a "last resort" because we only had 1-2 seats for it in the company. When every other platform failed, we could reliably count on DiscoverOrg to provide us with accurate information that was lacking from our other tools. The database is impressive, and the information was incredibly accurate.

  • Any time application use or segmentation of lists can be made simpler or more intuitive, that's helpful (I've found segmented list pulls challenging at times).

DiscoverOrg is being used by the sales and marketing departments, with most of the usage coming from marketing. DiscoverOrg addresses the problems of lead generation and account mapping.

Pros and Cons
  • List management.
  • Segmentation.
  • Contact information accuracy.
Likelihood to Recommend
DiscoverOrg is great for go-to-market strategy and communications. Primary use cases would be segmenting your targeted personas for an email nurture campaign, cold calling campaign, or display advertising campaign. There is also a use case (although we don't use this as much) for account executives to use DiscoverOrg data for account hierarchy mapping, or for technographics. Keep in mind you still need a good CRM and MAP in order to make DiscoverOrg most valuable/manageable.

[It's] Used by sales to find info about new and current customers.
Pros and Cons
  • Info on large accounts, enterprise specific.
  • Org charts are awesome.
  • Funding news is awesome.
  • This tool is HORRIBLE for any company under 200 employees.
  • We were oversold by our sales rep as a tool that can work for anyone other than comm/sales.
  • We were oversold.

If I need to get insights into a massive company it does a very good job; unfortunately I work with commercial and SMB customers.

My organization used DiscoverOrg for a search engine to find companies and contacts that were in our field. You can have access to many different levels of an organization, mine mainly used it for HR contacts so we had access to the HR level and C-suite level. This tool was amazing for the sales department because it allowed us to quickly find a list of contacts and companies and filter through them appropriately. DiscoverOrg also integrated with HubSpot which was my favorite part because this allowed me to quickly add the contacts and companies to our CRM without having to manually input them each time. I will say DiscoverOrg is not perfect. They don't always have accurate information and having to pay for each level of the company was annoying because my organization couldn't pay to open all the levels.
Pros and Cons
  • DisoverOrg does really well integrating with other platforms such as HubSpot CRM. This allowed me to quickly add contacts and companies.
  • DiscoverOrg has great information on each contact and company and sometimes even had a bio on a contact which helps when writing content in an email to that person.
  • DiscoverOrg was very easy to use and had great filters so you were able to find exactly what you needed in a particular area or state.
  • DiscoverOrg's pricing structure is a bit high. You have to pay for each level of a company such as HR level, C-Suite, level and so on which made it difficult to have all the contacts from a company since my organization only had two levels.
  • DiscoverOrg is not perfect. Some of the contact information was very outdated or incorrect which made things difficult at times but that is with any search engine.
Likelihood to Recommend
Scenarios where DiscoverOrg is well suited: one being when you are trying to find a list of contacts in your territory or state and you need as much contact information on each person as possible, you can either google which would take forever or you can use DiscoverOrg to build a quick list and import those quickly into your CRM.

We use DiscoverOrg to research companies in our ABM focused campaigns and to research enterprise accounts. It is used in the sales department globally.
Pros and Cons
  • Good data collection.
  • Most data is relevant and frequently updated.
  • News alerts are timely.
  • Very expensive, the price per user amount is not sustainable or realistic.
  • Waiting to see how ZoomInfo integration works.
Likelihood to Recommend
DiscoverOrg is great for SaaS companies who need quick access to detailed company info and who focus on expertise level accounts. Previously, I would say they aren’t great for some accounts, but with the addition of ZoomInfo into their database, that might not be an issue now.
