RainKing: A great solution for sales teams.
It is being used by the Sales department currently. The two main focuses we are using Ranking to help us with is for our business development team to gather leads that are relevant to prospect to. Also, our account executives are using the tool to help them gain better insight into the companies they are working with.
- It does a fantastic job of pulling lists and gathering data.
- Great with searching at a contact or company level.
- Awesome insights on organizations you're working with.
- I'd love to see company recommendations that are similar to ones you're searching for

- Helped to generate way more sales accepted opportunities.
- Helped with closing many more deals.
I've used SalesNavigator and Zoom Info. I actually think that Ranking is a great solution if you can use it in tandem with SalesNavigator. When it comes to pulling lists, in my opinion, Ranking does it best. Now that it has the database combined with Discoverorg, it's even more powerful to use.

RainKing was used by both sales and marketing departments. Sales teams used it to augment their account info, marketing used it to enhance target profiles and marketing target lists. Our experience with the account manager was on and off. Very unresponsive and not interested to help with the renewal. The tool is pricey compared to competitors. We are also using InsideView. We asked for a document to help us make the point why to renew with Discover (RainKing, what are the differences with InsideView, but we got canned documents (product brochure). He really didn't seem interested in us renewing. I wanted to use our experience with the tool and expand the number of licenses but I had no partner in Discover/RainKing for this. Consequently, we decided not to renew. In my experience with other vendors: Eloqua (now Oracle) and Salesforce, we always get the help we need for renewal and even expand the services. Discover/ RainKing is the first one not interested in renewing. Disappointing.
- Decent account and contact list email accuracy (designation by department though is just ok)
- Good visibility in the account family tree
- Good visibility in the accounts employees
- Account manager - really unresponsive, not interested in helping with renewal, making the case to our execs
- The Discover/RainKing team was not interested in helping us expand the way we are utilizing the tool, provide additional training, etc
- Contacts department designation lacks in accuracy, we frequently found significant mismatches

- In general can help with more accurate targeting (competitors provide more accurate and granular department designations)
- It can help with account penetration since it does provide the family tree and it is quite accurate
- Alerts do help in understanding companies initiatives (however competitors do provide similar service)
We did not renew with RainKing. We chose to go with InsideView, Ibis World and FactSet which provide more accurate data and have very supportive customer satisfaction and account managers. We feel we receive a lot of support in better understanding how to leverage the products, train the teams, get best practices insight, etc.
My role is in business development/inside sales. We use RainKing to find prospects as well as gather additional data about them (names, titles, email address, physical location) - it helps us for prospecting and filling the sales pipeline.
- It provides relevant and accurate information about prospects.
- It is easy to use.
- It provides very good data, such as companies and people to pursue.
- I'm not a fan of my account manager. He's not the most responsive.
- There are limitations to the software (ex: I've found several instances where I get a message that says I need to pay more to get information about certain people/companies).

- I don't have that information readily available to quantify the positive impact. However, I will say that I've found a lot of good prospects via RainKing to target my outreach efforts to. I definitely feel like the product pays for itself.

Making it Rain with RainKing
We use RainKing primarily in our prospecting efforts to identify and validate individuals and organizations. We use RainKing as we continue to build and refine territory account lists. The information in RainKing is invaluable in helping us more clearly understand who we're talking to and where they fit within the organization. It also gives us some insight into the technology landscape within the organization.
- Organization charts
- Account-level information
- IT personas
- Non-IT personas
- Would like to see them research a bit quicker.
- Would like to see the DiscoverOrg capabilities extended to existnig RK customers.

- Saves time looking for contact information at a rep level.

When we bought RainKing they were not yet owned by DiscoverOrg and we considered DO at that time.

RainKing is the KING of all the account data!
We use RainKing in the sales sub organization within our company. Specifically, our sales development representatives (SDRs) and I use RK to find accounts and import them into Salesforce. We also use it to find more information we can use to merge data with our accounts that are currently in our SFDC instance but have little descriptive information or contact details.
- RainKing seems to have a huge amount of data aggregated across verticals. I rarely encounter instances in which I can't find an account I'm looking for to add to our SFDC instance.
- RainKing provides an attractive UI to holistically view accounts and all their details in one place.
- RainKing's search engine is CRAZY good - I feel like I can search on tons of filters that are customizable or really pull in specific data so we can route data to specific regional account managers or sales reps in certain areas of the world.
- Sometimes I do find that there are accounts that don't exist in RainKing and I'm adding the accounts to Salesforce by using Google, which is sort of a pain and makes RainKing not worth the price.
- RainKing was pretty expensive, but I don't blame them for their business model.
- When you don't purchase every package they provide, error messages consistently appear (e.g. for federal data, which costs more).

- This definitely provides faster lead conversion and prospect recognition. RK saves us all a TON of time because the data is all in one place and can easily be viewed and managed and uploaded to Salesforce.
- Employee efficiency is a big one here - our employees only need to hit 2-3 buttons in order to mass upload accounts as leads in Salesforce and the "research" is simply there in RK without any additional action from the sales team.
We actually originally went with another product but changed our minds because of the price. While it may be pricey, it costs less than other products we looked at; however, this doesn't include [the hefty price tag that comes with] federal data. We're still deciding whether to purchase government/federal data. I also really like RK's customer support - they seemed very nice and genuinely wanted to make sure we were getting the best ROI.
