D&B is good at company info and data structure, all records have data (sic codes, industries, sales rev). Some of this data is correct some is not. Other data companies have this info missing.

  • S&P Capital IQ
It depends upon the situation mostly I prefer D&B Hoovers because of the data relevancy but sometimes it happens Hoovers is not working or is unable to find the details which I required then I move to S&P Capital IQ.

D&B is much more robust than any other database I’ve used. It offers more info and volumes of information stored in one place versus using regular search engines or paying for other types of similar reports

D&B Hoovers is the key tool we have been using for more than 10 years now, so we have never thought of looking for any other tool for our work

D&B is more cost-effective and is by far superior in its search and list-building capabilities. The main benefit (and really the only reason we use it) is that RocketReach has the ability to scan a LinkedIn profile and extract an email.

They are very good for targeting, however they don't provide sufficient account on the company if i were to plan a new client acquisition strategy. LI Sales Nav is also good, I like they way you can navigate a leads connections and include relevant ones from them, contact details are hard to find here.

The company information provided by D & B hoovers is extremely in-depth and in detail, the accuracy of the information provided gives a very good idea about the prospective company and helps in making cohorts and evaluation fit. As compared to other companies D & B hoovers is not as efficient in detecting buyer intent which other tools like Slintel are very good at. D & B Hoovers gives amazing company info however it can improve on sharing information about buyer intent. Sales Navigator by far provides extremely accurate information with is almost 100% accurate. However, Navigator does not provide buyer intent information.

While there are several softwares that offer similar options, Hoovers does stand above the others as one of the most accurate softwares I have used. They seem to put a lot of work into keeping their information up to date and accurate. It definitely makes the life of a salesperson much easier.

We actually use both for our list pulls to compare the data pulled from each product. Both are similar and have ease of use. Both seem to fall short with making sure information is current.

D&B Hoovers has better integrations than ZoomInfo, however, I sometimes feel that ZoomInfo is easier to use. D&B and ZoomInfo both can feel inaccurate at times (for example, ZoomInfo seems to have a floor.

D&B Hoovers is the industry standard. To even apply for government contracts obtaining a DUNS number is required. With D&B's far reach with other products like credit, they have a very large database. Add that to the relationships they have with other service providers and it was clearly the most robust and accurate database for companies. Where it really excelled was the corporate hierarchies.

D&B Hoovers and ZoomInfo are two of the products that our company uses for company information. I think that D&B Hoovers has better information on the company as a whole in terms of business description, revenue, hierarchy, etc. However, sometimes ZoomInfo's contact information seems to be more accurate.
