Considered Both Products
6sense
Chose 6sense
We selected 6sense because it was the had all of the capabilities that we were looking for, plus a little more. We took our time with the decision and met with the vendor multiple times, in the end 6sense was the leader in the categories that we cared about the most, segments, …
Chose 6sense
I doesnt stack upto any platform I used before. It's the worst tool i ever used
Chose 6sense
6sense has a greater ability to match users versus Metadata.io which on par has matched 65% of users, versus 85% with 6sense.

6sense also has much higher lead quality, compared to Metadata.io. We're seeing much greater influence, and trajectory.
Chose 6sense
We chose 6sense because:
6sense offers deeper/better, more actionable AI-driven insights into buyer intent
For its comprehensive view across the entire funnel
Chose 6sense
I previously used Bombora and it was very vague, however when 6sense acquired Bombora that was very helpful and took 6sense to another level providing even more insight when combining the services and technology. My understanding of this is that there is strength in numbers …
Chose 6sense
6sense is more built for enterprise businesses like ours.
Chose 6sense
We selected 6sense due to the Sales Intelligence features and orchestration capabilities, over its competitors.
Chose 6sense
Overall, 6sense made more sense to our company when comparing it to the others in the market. the integrations with our tools was a breeze and the sales enablement side of 6sense was easy to follow and in a place that makes sense for them.
Chose 6sense
Did not see the same overall benefits of 6sense after exploring other solutions.
Chose 6sense
Much better data and ease of use. We are able to really get deep into which accounts are viewing our ads or visiting our website.
Chose 6sense
We've used a couple other ABM softwares. We've done ZoomInfo, we've worked and partnered with RollWorks as well and there are some other quasi ABM tools and features and some other marketing automation platforms that align but not necessarily have the full breadth of experience …
Chose 6sense
There's something to be said for just a very seamless user experience. I think that's paramount, especially when you're trying to align sales and marketing. You're never going to get a salesperson to say, "oh, I want to sit here and learn this tool." You need to make it super …
Chose 6sense
I think 6sense has a much more robust intent data. I don't remember that Terminus really had much into the sales intelligence. The custom model and all of that, that 6sense has did not have at Terminus.
Chose 6sense
6sense sales team spent a lot more time with me building out a use case and example to take back to my team. I appreciated the support and felt confident in getting the help I needed to implement the tech.
Chose 6sense
To be honest, we didn't look very deeply at the product as we are satisfied with 6sense.
Chose 6sense
6sense intent signals are more rich and impact-full that anything with Zoominfo. 6sense provides intent signals that are much more attractive for our sellers as it not only provides the intent but identifies where a company might be in their buying journey. That information can …
Chose 6sense
We are too early in the implementation to confirm the quality comparison of data.
Chose 6sense
Demandbase Advertising, Terminus ABM Platform and ZoomInfo Marketing
Chose 6sense
6sense had multiple predictive models which was a no brainer for us.
Chose 6sense
Bombora and 6sense have pretty similar capabilities e.g. providing surging account lists.
Chose 6sense
The data we get from SI is worlds ahead of Seamess.ai and we are much happier with this data being GDPR ready etc.
LeanData
Chose LeanData
Lane Four is no longer in business (I think LeanData acquired) but Leandata is more flexible and reliable than it. Also more so than the custom code we used prior.
Chose LeanData
Its better and more modern. The UI is a much better experience
Chose LeanData
Salesforce flows are getting more and more powerful and similar to what LeanData does, but the routing function and territory mapping in LeanData is far superior to SFDC functionality, especially when it comes to the visibility and audit trails that it captures as people go …
Chose LeanData
LeanData solved all of our needs and allowed ownership and management we needed to scale our routing engine. We also loved working with the LeanData team and had an extremely positive experience with our sales rep and implementation team. I would want LeanData at any company I …
Chose LeanData
LeanData is easier to use, has a nice visual and handles more complex routing logic.
Chose LeanData
LeanData's native CRM structure made it the clear choice for us. No configuration is needed to read from all CRM fields and objects. We've been customers for 4 years and have never had any issues with its performance.
Chose LeanData
We were not able to devote the developer resources to solving the problem in-house at the moment in time we needed to move on this solution. We wanted (needed) a bespoke solution where implementation could be handled outside of our organization. LeanData was able to offer that …
Chose LeanData
We tried using Ringlead for routing purposes but the way the logic needed to be built was super complex, repetitive and prone to manual errors so we like Leandata as auditing and testing is better and you can even see where the error is for your graph. Having a graphical or …
Chose LeanData
N/A I was not here to evaluate other products nor have I used similar tools.
Chose LeanData
I have not used other products for lead routing besides doing manual distributions and this is much better than that!
Chose LeanData
LeanData Bookit replaced Chili Piper for us, and made it much easier to manage out routing for meetings since we were already using LeanData for routing. We have recently evaluated Qualified, and territory management/round robin logic is much simpler in LeanData.
Chose LeanData
Compared to SFDC out-of-the-box routing it is far superior. Giving you the ability to quickly make changes on the fly and test in a sandbox environment. The ability to troubleshoot leads and how they are routed is also a plus. Built-in email alerts also reduce the amount of …
Chose LeanData
We have routing cababilities in Marketo, Salesforce's out of the box Lea Routing Rules, and custom code. [LeanData] is by far the easier and most flexible for an agile business.
Chose LeanData
The main competitors to LeanData are Lane Four and Distribution Engine. While these solutions are definitely improvements from the native lead routing rules in Salesforce, they do not compare against LeanData. They lack the robust fuzzy matching, visual routing canvas, …
Chose LeanData
At the time of evaluation, in addition to looking for Salesforce.com to solve the issue, I looked at a couple of other, smaller solutions that I can't even remember their name. They didn't offer the same level of robustness or complete solution. The Salesforce.com solution …
Chose LeanData
We didn't thoroughly examine alternatives.
Chose LeanData
The most powerful lead routing tool I’ve seen. It allows you to have so many different ways to route the most complicated of situations.
Chose LeanData
The above are all excellent products in their own right, but lack the specialized focus of Lean Data.

User Testimonials
6senseLeanData
Likelihood to Recommend
6sense is great when used for sales insight, especially in scenarios where sales teams need to prioritize accounts based on buying intent. When we want to identify which accounts are actively researching a product category or specific keywords, 6sense provides visibility into anonymous website visits and intent signals. 6sense can do better in terms data enrichment—such as updating or verifying contact details before import to CRM. While 6sense offers some enrichment features, tools like ZoomInfo is generally more robust to maintaining accurate contact-level data.

LeanData is incredibly configurable. The drag and drop nodes are easy to use and while it takes a little practice, once you know how to configure the nodes, the amount of flexibility you have to customize your instance is impressive. We can route to specific individuals, to Round Robins, to Territory Teams and more. Timezones and vacations rules can be established and respected. The tool is incredibly scalable to large teams. We have two different business units each with different routing practices and we are able to configure LeanData to work smoothly for both unique processes.

Pros
  • 6sense has really detailed intent data. It's very dynamic and they're always releasing new features and new products that provide even more levels of detail. They also create a custom model for you that's based on your close won sales. You can look at intent data that's super personalized to you in your business case. The integrations allow you to use the data that 6sense provides throughout your marketing stack. You can put it into your map, you can put it into your CRM, you can put it into outside advertising platforms, which allows you to really have really strong omni-channel campaigns.

  • Lead-to-Account Matching. LeanData has far and away the best fuzzy matching system for identifying the appropriate Account where a particular Lead belongs.
  • Lead Routing. LeanData's visual routing canvas allows business users to construct very sophisticated, yet reliable, routing branches that determine what to do with every lead (both new and existing) based on business rules.

Cons
  • Having better in tool usage reporting.
  • Not having to publish segments to SF to see in the dashboards.
  • Better in tool profiles (ability to add region & team under profiles) and then being able to filter reports to a person or sales manager would make things more agile.
  • Ability to have smaller display campaign audiences (1-1 abm style could use improvement).
Read full review
  • I think implementing data tables is by far a superior way to achieve complex routing scenarios, but the feature could be more at the forefront (I was previously building very complex webs to achieve similar results before I was aware of how to use them)
  • I wish there were a way to have multiple entry nodes of the same type (ie New/Updated Campaign Member) with different filters for better router organization. I realize this could be implemented by adding additional filters to the existing node, but for viewing cleanliness as opposed to functionality itself, I wish this could change.

6Sense is a powerful tool, and I’m hopeful that, despite some limitations tied to our sales process, we can make it work effectively for our organization. The customer support is great, and they have listened to my feedback and provided recommendations to improve. The insight we can see is still unmatched and it is easy to digest

Usability
The platform is pretty straightforward as far as creating new segments and what's available to do so. The launch of digital advertising has greatly improved in recent months which has been great for our digital team. Adding or removing users and updating integration points is pretty easy as well. Reporting has also been recently updated which makes reporting on usage and ROI much easier too.

We hardly needed any support but in the initial days we got some had to contact support for the product understanding, the suppor t was prompt and they were very quick to resolve any issues. The support team is very helpful and gives a lot of importance to unresolved issues.

There is no way I would have such a successful implementation of this product without the implementation and support team. They have been patient, helpful, and very responsive. Even after I had gone live and had been so for a while, our org and thus our criteria had changed. They continued to help me make the necessary tweaks to ensure I was up and running.

Return on Investment
  • Opportunity conversion, definitely increased opportunity, conversion rates and very high deal size. The size of the deal that is touched by marketing and engaged in 6sense paid media campaigns is proportionately increased versus if they were just an inbound or if they were just work by sales.
Read full review
  • Using the Outreach integration in LeanData that allows us to auto-sequence an inbound prospect that hasn't booked a meeting has brought our average time to touch from 10+ days to >1 day.
  • I can't speak to specific numbers, but using LeanData to route our different onboarding related objects has significantly reduced our onboarding time for new customers.
  • Adding LeanData Bookit has also reduced our spend by consolidating tools. When we acquired a company last year, we were able to use LeanData on their website and get rid of their routing/meeting tools without having to pay for another instance.
