The customer success manager is great. He regularly reaches out to let us know about upcoming product updates or other events that may have an impact on the way we use the solution. He is also good at addressing questions on a one-off basis, which is much appreciated.
Identifying revenue. I've worked with Hoovers, OneSource, and InsideView in the past. All tools just pull data from D&B for revenue. Everstring does seem to take that a step further by analyzing a variety of sources. There will always be issues with the data, especially in regards to private companies, but Everstring does do a better job than other SI tools I have experience using
Salesforce Integration. It's good for identifying prospect accounts and contacts because all the fields that Everstring populates are immediately available when I create a report with Salesforce.,Updating Account Info with Feedback. Sales reps are constantly looking at other sources to determine whether or not an account assignment is valid. Everstring would benefit from that information as well. There would need to be a way to easily submit that information to Everstring for review.
LinkedIn integration. When you are creating territories or resolving a dispute regarding account assignment based upon public information, there are so many resources that an individual can look at. I've worked at companies in the past that base territory assignments on employee count. To this day, I have not seen a more reliable source than LinkedIn for identifying that information.
Explaining Intent scores. I think the Intent scores are great, but I don't necessarily understand how they are identified. If I did, I could likely use the information in a more effective manner.,7,Not much training.,On a scale from 1-10, 7.,More accurate than other SI tools.,If your goal is to receive effective survey responses, this should have required much less time. Especially when dealing when with sales professionals.,See prior answers.,Tyler BrandtNew partnership: optimistic they will be a significant partner that supports our success.2019-08-14T15:39:40.502ZWe are using EverString to build our sales pipeline and brand awareness.

We just met to build out our workflows and weekly processes more and I'm optimistic this will help.

We get a lot of new contacts from EverString, but have issues appending data to existing contacts. As for the intent, we use this to further target our CRM list marketing, but have noticed that in order to find companies surging on our chosen topics, the list size must be quite large.,Finding new contacts for our companies.
Finding new companies.,Being able to "enrich" data -- meaning finding data for contacts that we upload into the system.
We have more options for intent topics.
The platform was really hard to understand in the beginning. More training would be helpful.
UI could be improved. For example -- because I was not an admin, I was unable to complete the in-platform training.,5,Our sales team does not use EverString right now. Only Marketing does, and it took weeks to get comfortable with the platform.,The platform works fine when trying to find new leads, but it can be frustrating sometimes because it seems like there are 14 different ways to do a single action. I also wish the platform could enrich data at a contact level.,The contacts are accurate for the most part. We have had some issues with dirty data, but I believe that is because our lists are not always clean to begin with.,It is a little too early to tell, but we have been getting new leads into our system each month.Hanna DavisEverString2019-08-16T16:38:46.856ZIt is used to help in the search process of finding new prospects. It is being used by the sales department, typically by the business development team, but also by the Account Executives. It helps us find better contacts in our database. With hundreds of thousands of contacts, we needed EverString to find the needle in the haystack.,Finds the revenue of the company.
Finds the address of headquarters.
Gives us an estimate on how likely it is that the company would need a financial software.,Sometimes the revenue doesn't match up properly.
There could be differences in the mailing and billing addresses.
ESrevenue is very general (ex. 500M-1B).,8,Yes, we are able to find account intelligence on EverString. There isn't much training needed to use the software due to it being automatic and not interactive. We did not do training on the software at all. It is a part of our salesforce, so we train people on how to read the data and how it can help.,I would say I'm about 60% satisfied. It helps me out, but I can't guarantee that it helps. It puts the prospects in a good category, but it's still up to me to find the person that would be most interested in the software. Some people on the team don't use EverString to build a report, due to them not believing in the software.,EverString is not the most accurate. We pretty much use it as a baseline. I didn't know that there were EverString contacts.,I wouldn't be able to talk as the company, but for myself, it has increased the prospecting time.,I can't speak on that, but it has helped me find quality leads.,Marketo and LinkedIn Sales Navigatorves kovacevichEverString has potential to change the game2019-08-15T16:33:16.489ZEverString is being used by our organization in a couple of different ways. One use is the gathering of company, and like-company, data to "fill in the gaps" of targeted markets. The other is to gather contact information for different individuals at our company to reach out and get answers.,The user-friendly interface makes it really easy to get the hang of looking up various things and getting the information you need.
Appealing website design. Saved lists are easy to navigate and modify.
Building a list of companies and/or contacts is seamless.,Known tech-savvy regions should be added to the search function. i.e. Silicon Valley.
When finding contacts, you cannot distinguish what person is at what location.
Whittling down a list by NAICS codes is not always helpful. When selecting strictly manufacturing codes, companies that provide only software still slip in.,8,I didn't receive any training. It took me around 4 hours to feel confident using the platform though.,Besides the NAICS codes not being fully effective, EverString is a good tool for identifying the best fitting accounts.,Everstring providing the direct LinkedIn profile is great. The only downfall I see with exporting contact lists is that there is no way to distinguish what person is at what location of a specific company. That's something that is obviously very important.,Everstring has definitely prompted a more work-together strategy for bringing in more company business. Several of my colleagues were able to generate a lead and turn it into a potential contact for the company.,Kadin StephensHow EverString has enriched our sales pipeline and filled in the gaps that others couldn't!2019-08-15T03:17:09.789ZWe are currently using EverString to enrich accounts with our Salesforce integration. Our researchers use it to get segment, company, social media, contact, and industry information. It addresses our need to be able to determine whether or not a company would benefit from our software or not, as we look to help particular company segments. Additionally, our sales reps use it to be relevant and up-to-date when speaking with prospects.,It finds company and segment information well. This is a strength of EverString that is more consistent and up to date than the Clearbit extension we also use.
It finds extra contact information, such as phone numbers, that other extensions sometimes miss.
It saves us time when it comes to gathering "extra information," e.g. pulls a summary of what the company does, as well as its LinkedIn profile for a quick reference.,It sometimes pulls out of date information for the company -- possibly more due to the company itself not updating its information.
Phone numbers are sometimes inaccurate.
The extension sometimes crashes inside Salesforce.,8,Yes-- the research team is not only able to find companies that are a fit for us, but they can also enrich accounts that we had previously identified. I was not directly involved in the training of the researchers, who use it the most, but for the SDRs, it is very simple to get them up to speed and make the most of it. Any time we had a problem it was easily fixed by searching online.,I would give it a solid 8/10. For companies that are either established or have been around for a long time, the information is accurate and up to date. The only problem that arises is, as previously mentioned, for smaller and quickly growing companies. We occasionally find the information to not be up to date. Other than that, we find it very helpful.,I love the direct LinkedIn profile link. I used to use it every time I got a new account to quickly and efficiently gather information on the company and contact (recently in the team lead role, so it's not so active now).
I find the information to be up to date 90% of the time. The only times Everstring fails is where a contact has moved company recently, but I don't think that's something that is easily tracked! It also gives a nice snapshot of who the person is and what their role in the company is.,I believe EverString makes us more efficient on a daily basis. While I can't quantify this on a "per-rep basis," I can assert that it saves them time every day when going through accounts. The biggest difference for us is that in a week a researcher might have previously been able to find 30 accounts. With the time EverString saves, each researcher consistently pushes out 35-40 accounts per week.,In my role, anything that improves the number of accounts is great, but it's the quality that really makes the difference. Easily identifying companies that are a strong match for our product allows us to make the best use of the SDR's time by focusing them on companies that are more likely to buy.
This, of course, has had the nice knock-on effect that we have a greater number of opportunities and deals.,ClearbitFraser MurphyUsing Intelligence to save time in your prospecting2019-08-14T16:06:34.896ZEverstring is being used by our Marketing team and our Sales teams.

Finding like customers to previous wins is valuable.,I think it has great potential- don't think our marketing team has leveraged it enough in outreach as I feel they should, but I am working on that. From a sales perspective- we have found a few opportunities from Everstring data- its great when filtering out reports in our Salesforce database- picking a high fit score and intent prospects.,Marco MartinezEverString Review2019-08-14T15:31:08.578ZCurrently, our Sales department uses it to prioritize accounts and leads we should outreach.,Relevant news articles.

We've been much more successful in identifying accounts that are in the market for our product. We're very satisfied with our decision to go with EverString.,There have been some instances in which I've had to use LinkedIn or another product to find up to date contact information, but that has happened with almost every product we used/tried/use currently.,Everstring has absolutely helped our Sales team be more productive and improve sakes velocity and efficiency. We went from months of unsuccessful outbound dialing using another product to months of extremely successful connections since we started using the product. We aren't wasting as much time reaching out to organizations that have no interest in the product and can really focus a good chunk of our time on organizations with current intent.,EverString has had a huge impact on our sales and marketing funnel. Our number of quality leads shot up, as did our opportunities and deals. Marketing has been able to align their strategy to match what the customer is looking for from LinkedIn content to blog posts on searched topics and advertisements.,ZoomInfo and ClearbitVerified UserContact lists are a huge benefit to overall ABM strategy2019-08-14T21:42:16.255ZWe are using Everstring as part of our new ABM/targeted demand gen strategy. Both marketing and sales departments are making use of the product. We use Everstring in two ways:
1. Create company lists around certain search topics (Ideal customers) to try and increase our sales funnel.
2. Create contact lists (us only) around companies we are currently targeting through ABM (this helps our sales team with their process).
Everstring allows us to get contact level information, our ABM tool does not provide this information.,Target users based on products they are currently using. This helps determine if a potential customer is a good fit for us.
USA Contact lists: we have clearbit reveal on our website to determine which companies are engaging on our site, but that's only at an account level. Everstring is able to provide us contact (company list upload) so we can find the right "active buyers" to reach out to via sales.
Being able to filter by job title and department allows us to find the decision-makers at a target company.,Contact lists are only available in the USA currently; adding to EMEA would be great. Might be a compliance/security thing though.
Sync with salesforce is buggy; we want to add in new contacts to our salesforce from EverString (minus duplicates) there is a "don't show contacts in my CRM" feature, but it does not work properly. When I applied this filter to a contact list, there were a bunch of duplicates already in our Salesforce. Added more work in having to remove them ourselves. Hopefully, they fix this issue.,7,I come from a marketing/analytics background; the platform is pretty intuitive when it comes to generating account lists. It is easy to understand the available filters. At our company, the tool is only used by individuals on the sales teams and marketing teams. After our initial onboarding session and just a bit of time exploring the tool—we were able to get a pretty good handle on how to use it.,We have only been using the product for a couple months; it's a bit early to have a definite answer on how leads have turned out. However, the combination of filters around job title, department, software being used, etc, has allowed us to generate target lists for our sales and marketing teams.,We have just started using the contact lists for sales purposes, will keep looking out for feedback from our team in regards to accuracy. Our goal is to add at least 2 contacts for every account in our CRM. There is currently a bug with hiding contacts already in salesforce; once this is fixed it will make using this feature easier for us.,We are using ABM + Everstring to increase the amount of highly-qualified accounts in our sales funnel. We just rolled out handing over account lists to our sales team in the past few weeks, so we are still looking for feedback on how these accounts are turning out. Everstring lets us know which software a company is using, so that helps save us time when qualifying if they are a proper fit for our product.,Everstring allows us to identify accounts who maybe be interested in our product ahead of when we would without it. Everstring also shows with products a company is using + researching. This gives our sales team leverage when working on a deal. Usually, we have to spend time with a company figuring out if they are compatible with us. Using Everstring and other ABM tools allows us to qualify accounts faster than ever before.,DemandbaseVerified UserEverString, no strings attached, all the benefits you want in sales!2019-08-14T15:41:45.858ZWe use EverString to find prospective companies that are currently looking up industry keywords. Although it does not give us a specific person from the company, giving us information about which company is plenty because we merely need a general direction.

The software is very user-friendly and provides quality leads. We do not have a marketing department yet, so I would suggest using EverString until your marketing department scales. It's difficult for us to find account intelligence on our own without using EverString.,I'm not sure if they're the best fit accounts, but EverString provides solid accounts that give the user the opportunity to strike a conversation at the right time. So far, I am satisfied with using EverString. I was able to set up a few meetings this month from accounts that EverString found for us.,I have not been able to see the exact LinkedIn profile, but after using the data enriching filters I look up the potential companies on Sales Navigator. I feel that the accounts are accurate and have up-to-date company contact information. We have benefited from this information because it saves us time from researching accounts and allows us to send more emails than we were able to before.,Since I have joined the sales team we have been using EverString, and our organization has seen a spike in productivity. More meetings have been booked, and we have saved money on not having to hire specific marketing personnel. Whenever I run low on leads, we do another search and within minutes I receive a bunch of new leads.,EverString has given me more time to construct personalized emails, which evidently improves our workflow. This month I have been able to set up 8 qualified meetings. Our sales team has been able to provide themselves with leads without having a marketing team.

Before EverString, we were prospecting through LinkedIn and didn't know if companies were in market for our product. Now we use EverString's intent and fit model to identify accounts in our ICP, but who are also in market for our product. It has fundamentally changed the way we prospect.,Identifying accounts. As an Account Development Rep, the world of acconts is endless and you don't know who's shopping.,The contact information could be more up to date. Sometimes if there are new employees, it takes months to get updated information. Also, there aren't as many direct dials as other contact providers.,9,There was little to no training required to use EverString. We had to learn the "why" behind EverString. We needed to understand why fit models and intent is helpful for prospecting because we had never had this type of information available to us before. Using the product is intuitive and did not require training on the software itself.,Very satisfied.,The contact data is where EverString lacks. We reach out to HR and Talent Aquisition, there are not accurate contacts and direct dials for over half of the people we reach out to.,Yes. We have been able to increase our outreach. We are able to reach out to about 30% more accounts per month. We also have cut our prospecting time in half, if not more.,We have increased our number of meetings set with EverString.

Would be nice to see one company's historical data in intent.,8,Not much training was required, at least for Sales. Marketing may need a bit more connections with other tools, but not much.,This is not really an area we rely on Everstring for alone. Its useful but not our only resource,I actually don't believe we have an EverString rep at the contact level only account.,Everstring has helped us focus on fewer accounts. I'm not sure of numbers on increased achievement.,I'm not sure of the impact but it does allow our marketing teams to target ads in a more refined way and sales to focus on surging accounts only.,Verified UserFlexible and intuitive - Jury is still out on results2019-08-14T15:24:28.448ZWe use EverString in sales and marketing to provide directional data on prospect quality/fit. We also use it for list building and enrichment.,Keyword search/filtering.
List building.
Sales self-service.,Issues with scoring only 50% of accounts.
Model building is based on a CSV file and you don't know what levers or inputs are actually influencing the model.
No real-time contact validation/verification.,7,Yes, our teams are able to navigate the tool on their own without much training required. The tool is very intuitive and the interface is straightforward.,This is hit and miss for us as our product supports many different types of industries and markets and runs the gamut regarding company size, revenue, employees, etc. Sometimes the scoring methodology is spot on and other times companies that are in our sweet spot are scored lower, even when we update the EverString model to best support this variation in target market fit.,I believe only 4 of their 30 million contacts have verified emails. It would be nice to see this number higher. Also, I believe they only update these once a month so a higher frequency of validation would also be helpful. The LinkedIn direct profile link is great and the contact information is certainly helpful when we have no contacts at a prospect.,We are really just ramping sales use of this tool outside of the widget in Salesforce so TBD.,We are really just ramping up sales use of this tool so we are monitoring lead quality and deals but don't have insights to share yet.,ZoomInfo and LeadGeniusVerified UserSo far, so good!2019-08-13T19:56:34.073ZAt the very least, we use EverString to pull lists of contacts at companies that may be potential clients... but it is so much more! We use this solution to keep up-to-date on industry staffing changes and when there is surging search traffic for products like ours. Other contact database solutions on the market tend to nickel and dime their pricing and frankly, our company was only able to purchase the most basic services at a competitor of EverString. When we started shopping around, we were very pleased to find that EverString offered all-inclusive pricing so we could get the most out of their product. We have definitely taken advantage of any/all uses and continue to learn more about the product every day!,Verified information

All-inclusive pricing,Search data could be a little more granular - for example, offer the ability for us to see when contacts are searching for our competitors.,8,Because we have used similar solutions in the past, we were able to have a couple of calls with our customer success manager at EverString in order to implement/integrate the solution. At that point, our sales team had one call and was given access to some self-learning modules and we are all comfortable using the product.,We have only used Everstring for a short time, but so far, we are very happy with its ability to identify potential clients/accounts for us to pursue. In fact, I would assume that the integrity of the information provided is the exact same as higher-priced solutions on the market. So far, so good!,As said before, the data integrity seems to be on par with other higher-priced solutions. We felt trapped with a previous vendor because they said that they had the most contacts with the highest percentage of accuracy. We quickly found this to be untrue when we started to use EverString. We also enjoy the seamless integration with Salesforce/Pardot and the direct access to users' LinkedIn information.,We have not been using the solution long enough to notice a direct correlation between improved sales velocity and the product itself. However, we are seeing more interested contacts when sending marketing campaigns because we are better able to segment contact lists than we were before.,So far, we are not able to see any direct correlation - but we are hopeful that we will see our contacts move through the sales funnel at an improved velocity and be able to attribute this benefit, at least in part, to EverString.,DiscoverOrgVerified UserEverString Early Impressions2019-08-13T18:49:36.915ZEverString is used by the sales department, mostly by BDs to my knowledge. It is mainly used to help find prospects' email and phone numbers, often having direct lines that are harder to find online. It is also used to import these contacts into Salesforce, reducing the manual entry otherwise required.,Simple interface - easy to understand
Integrations with LinkedIn and Salesforce,Annoying to click on the checkbox to select multiple contacts to import/delete - would be nice to be able to click and drag or holding down ctrl to select multiple contacts faster.
Better error return messages - not just indicating that there is already an existing account but showing the actual account instead.,7,Minimal training was needed. Team had an hour session.,EverString is not used to find accounts, rather to find contact information for prospects that we find on other sources (ie. LinkedIn).,This is the main benefit we get from EverString. Sending the contact info to Salesforce and then being able to open up the Salesforce page using the direct link afterwards. Emails are found most of the time and its email verification process seems pretty solid. Phone numbers are slightly less reliable, but still seem to be about 3/4 of the time.,Yes, time is saved from not having to manually find and enter phone numbers and emails. As well, being able to (sometimes) find direct numbers leads to more connected calls.Verified User
