Overall Satisfaction with D&B Hoovers

Challenges our team faces is how to best identify real selling opportunities and get in the door faster, ultimately accelerating the sales cycle.

Pros

  • The D&B Hoovers platform enables our team to customize, giving us the ability to fine-tune our searches
  • D&B Hoovers integrates very well Salesforce, our CRM system, streamlining the workflows of sales teams and ensuring the verified transfer of data between platforms
  • D&B Hoovers provides highly accurate and reliable business data

Cons

  • D&B Hoovers lacks a bit when it comes to information readily available to global organizations.
  • It does take some time investment for new users to get acclimated
  • The research functionality can get complicated. There are many perimeters that can confuse first time starters.
  • Since it's very easy to extract information into Excel, it makes our team very efficient. I also like that the data is useful for finding additional company news and info.
  • D&B Hoovers provides our team with dependable, real-time business data, a pivotal asset for well-informed choices in sales and marketing.
  • The ability to search by SIC code functionality to find niche businesses that we could supply to within specific geographic regions and verticals is valuable.
D&B Hoovers delivers extensive business intelligence capabilities. The vast database of company profiles enriched with intricate details, includes financials and executive contact information. This information resource sets it apart, providing our team with the ability to receive notifications which is a big plus.
Generally speaking, D&B Hoovers provides a solid database of contact information that I consider in the top 3, (also includes Zoominfo & LinkedIn Sales Navigator).
D&B Hoovers stacks up well against the other tools, however our teams tend to use a combination of all 3, depending on their area of focus.
