ZoomInfo is well suited to provide any additional necessary company and people information that a sales team would need in order to be successful. It should not be treated as an end all be all when assigning leads or moving prospects through the pipeline. Some additional due diligence should be expected to make sure things are correct.

ZoomInfo is good when you know exactly what you are looking for. What companies do you need and which job title. ZoomInfo is not the best with the most current information, so sometimes you can call the wrong people or have the wrong email. Also, sometimes ZoomInfo has people's home phone and they are not very pleased to receive a call like that.

ZoomInfo is used by our brokers to find the direct dials and emails of decision makers to make our first contact. It solves the problem of being unable to reach decision makers or being turned away by secretaries.
- Provide accurate contact direct dials
- Provide accurate contact emails
- Provide accurate company description and locations
- Some company addresses are old and not up to date
ZoomInfo is a must have for any sales team looking to find the contact information for their leads and prospects. Just last night, my colleague needed the direct dial for a decision-maker at a start-up company based out of Tel Aviv, Israel (even though we work in Manhattan). In less than a minute, he was able to find the direct dial for the company's Chief Financial Officer, and had a conversation with him the following morning.

Acccount Development Manager
WorkfrontComputer Software, 1001-5000 employees
I use ZoomInfo on a daily basis. The reason for the use is to find Title and Contact information for specific people in organizations. This is a great tool that is used by the Account Development Department and we simply could not be nearly as successful without it. The main business problems it address is providing greater visibility into corporation leadership as well as contact information for them that can not be found elsewhere.
- The ability to highly filter and really dive down deep in your searching
- The ability to transfer information in to CRM's like Salesforce
- The information is relevant and is current
- Sometimes the information only has a name and company and you really need an email or phone number
- Anything to do to get direct numbers would be fantastic. You have a lot but I would like more
ZoomInfo is great when you are trying to find and locate contact information on a specific person within a company. Information is up to date and very relevant based on the filters that are provided. Sometimes there is no information on the person you are searching for. It would be great if ZoomInfo remembered these searches and then notified you when it has found more info.

User Review: "I've been using ZoomInfo for 8 years!"
Director of Global Demand Generation, Marketing Operations, and Analytics
Pendo.ioComputer Software, 201-500 employees
ZoomInfo is currently integrated into Salesforce and we are using it to append data as new leads and contacts get input as well as importing new accounts/contacts/leads into the system. We also use the tool on the marketing side to enhance lists we receive from non-digital channels and pull other target lists. ZoomInfo has enabled us to get to almost 90% data completion in regards to the fields we value in regards to our lead scoring model.
- In comparison to other data append vendors, our internal tests showed ZoomInfo provided the best contact level data.
- The website tool is easy to use for list appends.
- I like the granularity of the search function.
- We struggle with International data completeness.
- With the integration, it would be nice if the tool could flag in the searches if a particular account or contact is already in our SFDC instance.
- I'd love if the advanced settings on the SFDC were more sophisticated so we didn't have to create duplicate fields and create workflow rules to update fields for specific conditions.
The reason we still use ZoomInfo on the backend of our lead processing function is that we really like ReachForce's SmartForm execution for lead intake.

User Review: "No Better Resource Than ZoomInfo"
COO (Chief Operating Officer)
CHOSENBuilding Materials, 201-500 employees
We use ZoomInfo to data mine for prospects in our niche market. It is easy and powerful. We then acquire the list in CSV format and upload into OutReach for sales engagement. It is that easy and quick! ZoomInfo lets you get to the data in so many great ways i.e., Job Title, Industry, SIC Code, zip code, etc.
- Zoom in on companies by title, SIC code and zip code
- Eliminate anyone who doesn't have an email address
- Eliminate anyone who doesn't have a direct telephone number
- If they had a mobile app
- If they would give you an organizational chart
- If they would have news feeds for the target companies you select
If you want to have your sales team be truly empowered and successful you need to get ZoomInfo. There is nothing even close that I have come across so far that competes with ZoomInfo. It is so easy to use and gets the results you want which is make contact, engage, keep the conversation going and then close the deal!

Review: "ZoomInfo - Zooming into companies one contact at a time"
Marketing Ops
PayNearMeFinancial Services, 51-200 employees
We use ZoomInfo to source new contacts and to refresh contacts for target accounts. We also use it to find additional companies that meet our sizing and industry criteria.
- Easy search.
- Integrates well with SFDC.
- Widget in SFDC is helpful.
- Poor suppression list functionality - if it's synced to SFDC, why can't it just auto suppress contacts?
- Can't use API unless upgraded to a high volume account.
- Difficult to search for smaller sized companies.
Suited for sourcing at a somewhat manual method by exporting and importing CSV files. It would be great if they could find a way to do this quickly all within the platform.

Senior Director Inside Sales
Ultimate SoftwareComputer Software, 1001-5000 employees
We use it across the sales and marketing organization to supplement the information in our database.
- I'd like to see a better quality of data on company size. That count seems off more times that it's right.
- I'd like to see it show the technology stack that companies have.
- I'd like it to show not only the software technology they use but the length of the term of the contract. There is a database out there that does that really well and would be an asset for ZoomInfo.
Well suited as a tool to append your database with additional hard to find data points. Would not use it as the sole point of data, include other data resources as well.

ZoomInfo Review: "Great functionality, more contacts please!"
Enterprise Business Development
QualtricsComputer Software, 1001-5000 employees
ZoomInfo is being used for prospecting efforts across the whole sales organization. Each salesman has a dedicated user seat to be able to access it from their desk. We have used it primarily for finding contact information for prospects but now that we have more access to it we are using more of the functionality like building lists and exporting directly into our CRM.
- Finding contact information
- Filters to find specific contacts
- The company information that it provides
- It could give us access to more departments, like research departments for example.
- Exporting credits could be cheaper so we would have unlimited credits.
- I don't always find contact information.
This software is very well suited for any sales rep who is prospecting potential customers to help find key stakeholders and their contact information. It is good for building lists and exporting information into our CRM so that it is up to date.

User Review: "ZoomInfo is Efficient"
Enterprise Account Executive
EmsiInformation Services, 51-200 employees
Our department is using ZoomInfo and it is helping us quickly and efficiently gather contact information to organize a systematic outreach for our B2B sales team.
- Integrates really well with Salesforce and outreach.
- Quickly and efficiently organize lead lists with company industry filters.
- Keyword search job titles and management level.
- Phone numbers are sometimes not direct or old.
- Contact information is not correct or is old.
- Company title normalization is sometimes off.
Great for getting contact information, I don't typically use it to discover technology products.

Review: "ZoomInfo for the Boom your business needs"
Direct Hire Recruiting Manager
DIVERSANT, LLCStaffing and Recruiting, 51-200 employees
I have used ZoomInfo for a little over 4 years now at two separate companies, both being staffing companies. At both companies, ZoomInfo was/is used by just about everyone in the company for both sales and recruiting reasons. ZoomInfo is used to find contact information for decision makers within organizations, as well as contacts for employees that we are trying to recruit.
- The ability to drill down a search with ZoomInfo is awesome; from name, to position, to company, and so on.
- ZoomInfo has a very clear platform that is designed with an intuitiveness that makes it easy to use.
- It is very helpful how ZoomInfo has links to information like a company website, LinkedIn profiles, as well as bulleted company information, including financials
- When they switched from 1.0 to 2.0 it was not gradual enough for my liking.
- If updates could be less drastic it would help the users with the transition.
- It would be nice to be able to set alerts up so that if someone you have searched has a profile update, ZoomInfo lets you know.
- The list and downloading seem slow and has too many steps.
ZoomInfo has made my job easier on more than one occasion, and I have used other programs. I would pick and recommend ZoomInfo over all of them. It is easy to use and has more info than the other products I have used. Other programs have limits or blocks or only focus on IT, but ZoomInfo gives you insight into all of it!

User Review: "ZoomInfo for direct lines"
Professional Training & Coaching, 11-50 employees
We use ZoomInfo to identify direct lines for the outbound sales development team. ZoomInfo's data accuracy is second to none. The tool has become indispensable and drastically improved our dial to conversation conversion rate.
- Providing direct lines for top level executives
- Building target account lists based in specific criteria
- Integrating with SFDC to minimize the amount of manual data entry
- Sometimes ZoomInfo does not quickly update contact information when that contact leaves the account
If you have outbound sellers (SDRs and AEs alike) I highly recommend ZoomInfo for I’d direct lines. You will see an increase in dials to conversation which leads to more appointments, opportunities, and revenue. If you have an inbound team that is following up on prospects who have filled out a form and have provided their direct lines, your team may not use Zoominfo as often as the outbound team.

Review: "Streamline the mining process with ZoomInfo"
Senior Corporate Account Executive
QualtricsComputer Software, 1001-5000 employees
We use ZoomInfo to mine and source new contacts for our sales prospecting efforts. The tool is used across the entire Sales and Sales Development organization regularly and has been a fantastic resource for sales reps to go deeper and further into organizational hierarchies quickly and easily. This is our primary mining tool.
- Finds contact information. Phone numbers, email addresses, etc.
- Determines organizational hierarchies easily.
- Streamlines the process for sales reps to mine potential prospects.
- It would be nice to remove some of the necessary steps required and use AI to streamline the suggestions.
- Make recommendations based on previous search histories readily available.
- Integrations with other systems.
Well suited for finding contacts and leads who are often hard to find. Fantastic tool for finding information such as phone numbers, email addresses, and business information.
Weaknesses would be that it lacks integrations to other software that I use daily for similar tasks. If these could all be linked, I would use the product much more.

ZoomInfo: "Accurate Data, Easy-to-Work-with Pricing Model"
Head of Demand Generation
BabelwayComputer Software, 11-50 employees
As we began to look at ways in which we could effectively conduct outbound campaigns, we needed to find a reliable solution for prospect contact information. Previously, we had used another vendor that really fell short in this area and our marketing suffered as a result. This time around as we looked at doing email marketing, cold calling, and direct mail --- ZoomInfo provided data that was often accurate and trustworthy.
- Provides accurate prospect data - Names, titles, phone numbers, and addresses were usually spot on. ZoomInfo has technology to collect these from the email signature lines of thousand of people. This data is regularly updated.
- Good licensing model - The old way of working with prospect lists was you were granted a certain time period to use prospect data and then once that time passed, you were on your honor to stop using it. (Hard to do in today's world ... like putting a Genie in a bottle.) ZoomInfo gives you access to an online database that is continuously refreshed. Once you download a contact, a credit has been used. You keep the info for as long as you like.
- Comprehensive database - We've been able to access thousands of names in a variety of industries (and sub-industries) as well as competitor customer data. The breadth is pretty impressive.
- Tagging used contacts - We struggled figuring out how to tag contacts from a list that were used (downloaded) previously and had some overlap as a result. Once we found a good way of doing that, ZoomInfo was good at crediting back contacts that were inadvertently used twice.
- Incomplete information - Even though most of the data was good, the number of contacts that were missing email, phone, or other information was not insignificant.
Great for companies wanting very solid data for outbound campaigns. Beats list scrapping services or other (more traditional) list vendors. Could also be of use in a Sales Development/Account Research capacity. You have to pay for # of users of the platform, which is a little unnecessary from my standpoint.

Computer Software Company, 51-200 employeesZoomInfo is used to determine geography, employee count, and correct lead information during the pre-sales period. ZoomInfo is used every day and is a staple to our prospecting. It is used by our business dev group and it helps us address the issue of bad data and finding true decision makers.
- Accurate lead information.
- Easy to upload to SFDC.
- Expansive database.
- I think the inside information for each company could be buffed up a little more.
- The quick company overview can be improved.
- Upgraded filters that allow more detailed searches.
The majority of the time I am able to search a specific company, find the decision maker and have their correct contact information. I can always rely on ZoomInfo to have accurate data and rest assured that when I make my dials, they count. It makes my job so easy! I don't know what people would do if they didn't have ZoomInfo.

ZoomInfo Review: "A great tool for account mapping and data enrichment"
Verified User
Manager in Marketing
Internet Company, 201-500 employeesZoomInfo is currently being used by our sales and marketing teams to map target accounts and enrich relevant contact data for our prospects. It is only being used by a few users within our organization, but we may scale up within the next year if we continue to see the value in it.
- Filtering capabilities
- List building and export functionality
- Very detailed firmographic and technographic information
- The overall user experience could be a bit more clear and user-friendly
ZoomInfo can be especially helpful for mapping ABM accounts. Our marketing team and our SDRs really enjoy using their list matching feature to fill in gaps in contact information. Our SDRs also enjoy the Outreach integration, which saves them a lot of time while managing their daily tasks. I personally use ZoomInfo's quick search feature on a daily basis to assist with lead assignments based on territory and company size.

Computer Software Company, 51-200 employeesZoomInfo data is accurate and abundant. We use ZoomInfo to search for new accounts and leads. The program allows us to narrow down to our exact target accounts by size, state, revenue, and more. We are able to search for specific prospects by name and company. ZoomInfo provides us with the most direct lines and emails.
- ZoomInfo has a great workflow with Outreach and Salesforce.
- Most data ZoomInfo has is accurate.
- ZoomInfo has a large database with just about every industry.
- ZoomInfo customer service is great.
- The data credits are inefficient when trying to reach out to mass amounts of prospects.
- The cost of the program can be very steep.
- There is room for improvement on some of the search tools.
ZoomInfo is great if you don't know your target prospects or accounts. It has a large range of accurate data that allows you to explore your exact targets. I'd say just about any company would benefit from ZoomInfo. Overall it's a great product and one of the best in the industry.

Verified User
Manager in Sales
11-50 employeesIn my organization, both the Sales and Marketing teams use this wonderful tool. With the help of this tool, we get direct contact information for our prospective clients. On this platform, we can get information from all kind of industries. It provides genuine contact details so our teams can save lots of time.
- It provides information from all the industries.
- I can get contact details of people of different management level in the same organization.
- It can provide information about the people based on their locations.
- Apart from subscription fee a user has to pay extra to export data in bulk.
- A lot of contacts are not updated for 2-3 years.
- In some of the company details, I could only find a contact number. No other information is there.
It is very well suited if a user wants to know the contact details of a specific person in a specific organization. Whenever I need to contact a person from higher management level for promoting my products in his/her organization, I use this portal to get his/her contact details.

ZoomInfo Review: "High quality data makes our salespeople smile!"
Verified User
Analyst in Sales
Management Consulting Company, 51-200 employeesZoomInfo is heavily used in our Sales department. We use it to add and edit leads in our CRM system. We have tried other services like ZoomInfo such as Hoovers, but none of them provide the accurate direct dial and email information that is crucial for getting through to the right person and scheduling meetings. When used in conjunction with our predictive dialing software, we have secured more first meetings this first quarter than we had in the entire year of 2018.
Sometimes, staff from other departments will use ZoomInfo to look up vendor information or contact information about clients they are working with. Virtually every staff member of our company agrees that the return we get from ZoomInfo is crucial to our team's success.
Sometimes, staff from other departments will use ZoomInfo to look up vendor information or contact information about clients they are working with. Virtually every staff member of our company agrees that the return we get from ZoomInfo is crucial to our team's success.
- Direct dial: Getting direct dial numbers makes it easier for our sales reps to get a hold of our prospects and bypass gatekeepers to schedule meetings.
- Email: We use email data heavily to execute marketing campaigns. ZoomInfo's rich data resources make our campaigns possible.
- Targeted searching: CFOs from $350 million-plus companies are our primary targets for prospecting. With its easy-to-use database search tools, ZoomInfo makes it easy to drill down to the right level in any industry and revenue range.
- Data exporting: With ZoomInfo, you can do more than download targeted lists. When our CRM data needs to be cleaned quickly, its "enhance" tool is indispensable to refreshing old and dirty data.
- Person searching: ZoomInfo's data when it comes to displaying the current CFO, etc., is not always accurate. I often do cross-referencing with LinkedIn and company websites to ensure we are targeting the right person.
- Revenue: ZoomInfo's revenue data is rarely accurate, which is unfortunate because accurate revenue data is extremely hard to find on the web.
- Company search: Often times there are slight differences between the way we spell company names (e.g. Acme Corporation) vs. how ZoomInfo spells them (e.g. Acme Corp). This sometimes causes no results in ZoomInfo's database. We have found that using companies' web address vs. the company name yields the best results.
ZoomInfo is best used by Sales and Marketing teams, though almost all of our teams may find its search tool useful. Sales teams can use it to target the right companies and people to prospect with confidence, whether it's an email marketing campaign or a cold calling list. Our other practice groups use it to look up information about vendors they have never worked with, or to track what technologies the company is using to offer the services we provide in ways that are most useful to our clients.

- ZoomInfo is able to provide contact information for people in all different orgs in a company.
- ZoomInfo is able to provide company information at scale.
- ZoomInfo is great to confirm the titles of people that you are unsure of.
- ZoomInfo can be outdated with information and incorrect.
- ZoomInfo does not always have the correct emails for the users.
- ZoomInfo does not always have the correct numbers for people.
ZoomInfo is well suited for when business development representatives are using it to prospect for people's contact information. It excels when you are unaware of a person's email and are looking to reach out to get a prospective meeting. ZoomInfo can also be great to find out people's titles if their LinkedIn is unclear.

User Review: "ZoomInfo the best of both evils"
Verified User
Employee in Sales
Internet Company, 51-200 employeesWe use ZoomInfo to prospect, as well as an email verifying tool from other prospecting methods. It is used by the sales team, mostly SDRs as well as AEs. We switched from DiscoverOrg (though they are now the same company). We found the data from ZoomInfo to be much more reliable and have noticed a considerable drop in bounced emails. Unfortunately, ZoomInfo does not integrate with Salesforce as well as DiscoverOrg did, which can be very frustrating at times in keeping consistent data.
- Accurate email data.
- Fairly up-to-date information on leads.
- Being able to see when leads were updated.
- Not a very good integration with Salesforce, and we're unable to fully dive into ZoomInfo because of this.
- Some email data is still inaccurate.
- Their plug-in is not the most reliable to use.
- The token system can cause an extra headache at times.
I think ZoomInfo is much better than DiscoverOrg, but I like DiscoverOrg's overall system much better. If they could take the data accuracy and transfer that into DiscoverOrg, that would be the best of both worlds. I do think ZoomInfo is the best prospecting information tool out there, but not a very good company data information integration tool.
