Overall Satisfaction with Data.com
We use Data.com within the sales department. It allows a single location for our team to identify contacts within an organization and find accurate email addresses. We use Data.com alongside of LinkedIn Sales Navigator to ensure that we are reaching out to contacts that are still working with a company.
- Find email addresses of contacts within a company.
- Easy to refund "points" spent on incorrect addresses.
- Able to sort by specific criteria i.e. title, date last updated, alphabetically, etc.
- Deeper reach of companies that are online.
- Data.com does well with larger well-known companies, it does struggle with contacts at businesses under a certain level.
- Find a way to link contacts and their LinkedIn profiles so they are automatically removed if a contact is no longer with the company.
- Interface could use some updating as well to be more intuitive.
- Efficiency through ease of finding email addresses
- Reps aren't spending time finding contact info in multiple places
- Only pay for contacts that you need
When we first purchased Datanyze, they had an email address portion of the site. The platform changed about halfway through our contract and no longer included access to email information. I believe that functionality is back as a feature of Datanyze. However, it always seemed to struggle providing quality contact information. I haven't used Datanyze since they refreshed their platform but was unimpressed with the quality of information they provided. Data.com's data has always been superior.
