Use Cases and Deployment Scope

D&B Hoovers is a good tool that gives real-time data and it is so easy to use. The best part is it gives data for small entities also where we can't find any information on other external tools. The challenges are it is quite costly as it is charged based on every report but they can come up with different pricing.

Finding information of Small & Mid sized entities
Providing World wide data
Easy to use and tutorials available in the D&B website itself if we are stuck

Can make Better pricing
More data on small entities are required
Undertermined cases are high

Company Data

I often search using a D&B Hoover number and sometimes by filtering the country by inputting the customer name.

Contact Data

NO.we don't have the data of customers but we do have the Customer's Address where we can use the same to verify and pull the credit limit of the customers. However, D & B Hoovers has some scope for improvement when it comes to getting details of individual decision-makers in those companies. It's not bad but can improve.

Alternatives Considered

ZoomInfo Chat, Slack, NetSuite ERP, Hootsuite, Agile Hive - SAFe in Jira, Lucidchart, LinkedIn Learning (Lynda.com) and Zuora

We use CREDITSAFE as an alternative tool as it costs less pricer and can be used alternative of D&B Hoover if it fails to give data
