UpLead is a key tool in building our business.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use UpLead to find key contacts at companies all over the world. Usually, I am looking for particular job titles or job types that can be paths to future business for us. Typically, I know the name of the company or its URL, but need to find technical, marketing, or C-Level individuals.

Pros

  • Global - I use it frequently for searching companies all over the world.
  • Very useful search functionality by various parameters.
  • Fast, fast, and speedy. Everything about UpLead is quick.

Cons

  • More data on small and start-up companies, but this situation is understandable.
  • Collecting a long list of contacts, especially of overseas companies, can sometimes take a while as UpLead is verifying the data. But the wait is typically understandable and worth it.
  • Sometimes I struggle with translating job functions in a foreign language, but this is easy to overcome.

Return on Investment

  • Tremendous savings in time to identify prospects.
  • We go to fewer trade shows now. This is a tangible economic benefit.
  • We have acquired many new customers and business partners as a direct result of finding key contacts on UpLead.

Uplead

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I have liked using Uplead so far. It has been an easy way to find leads. The main problem we had with previous companies is not finding accurate emails and phone numbers. That has not been a problem with Uplead. I also like how if they don't think the email is 100% accurate they won't charge you a credit. I also like the ease of use for the interface. It is easy to search through filters.

Pros

  • Finding correct customer emails
  • Interface
  • Customer service

Cons

  • More accurate emails.
  • expanding to different markets

Return on Investment

  • It doesn't have the the right intent promps for our business, but you mentioned during out demo you can add more promps

UpLead wont let you down Theyve got the help you need

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

UpLead has provided our company a means to generate leads for our businesses. While this is the base service and I believe it works well and the data is very accurate, I think it offers it services at an incredible price. Other companies only offer "Enterprise" packages which are absurdly expensive. In addition, UpLead allows me to use what I want to use out of its service and doesn't force me into using features our company doesn't really need to use.

Pros

  • A variety of affordable price plans.
  • Accurate data and provides email verification before charging you.
  • Easy to learn user interface.
  • Has advance features for those looking for just more than simple lead generation.

Cons

  • I apologize but I can't think of many flaws, at least for how I use UpLead.

Return on Investment

  • Within one month of use we already have been in contact with new potential customers.
