Clearbit didn't provide all the data that AeroLeads gave us--social details, company details (funding, location, employees).
Chose AeroLeads
Currently we are also using Clodura.AI along with AeroLeads simultaneously.
Clodura allows us to also send campaigns in addition to finding leads. So we use AeroLeads and Clodura for leads and Clodura for sending campaigns. Feature-wise AeroLeads is not as comprehensive as …
Chose AeroLeads
The Cost is less in Aeroleads, the UI is better and easy to understand too. Even a beginner can get the hang of the flow and mechanism very quickly and easily. Other tools had the problems of getting stuck and were very slow. Having an updated and self-created database helps in …
Chose AeroLeads
I used another email scraper before and AeroLeads is by far the easiest to use. I don't need to be technical to use it. At the click of a button, prospects are saved in my CRM.
Chose AeroLeads
The LinkedIn plug-in sets AeroLeads apart, as a step in the process can be skipped.
Chose AeroLeads
AreoLeads is the only tool that I have found that gives this kind of information gathering/help. I have found many of the competitors to be more expensive and less reliable when gathering lead data. AeroLeads provides an easy to use professional service at a lower price point …
Chose AeroLeads
We wish AeroLeads would work more closely with our CRM from a database management perspective. We would find that very helpful. Prospect.io seems to do a better job of linking with Pipedrive and creating the lists and marketing emails we need.
Chose AeroLeads

One of the best thing I found free email verifier through which I was able to verify my old leads as well and for my assignment that was something efficient way I found to get connected with the people.


Chose AeroLeads
Verify anyone’s email with our their email verification algorithm. That too, is completely free.
Crunchbase
Chose Crunchbase
It has more data and it's for sure more accurate, Crunchbase has a better platform when talking about visual and it's also easier to search. Also, it has better filters which can help companies to dive deeper into researching accordingly to their needs
Chose Crunchbase
I like Pitchbook a lot -- but too expensive for a slight difference in our use case. If Crunchbase added valuation "estimates" (kind of like zillow "zestimates"), it would be awesome instead of just very good.
Chose Crunchbase
Crunchbase is cheaper and the overall price/value balance is better
Chose Crunchbase
Ptichbook. This platform is more detailed and has a lot more information regarding round details. The platform also has other features to build lists, market maps, landscapes and access reports and raw data about companies by vertical or any other segmentation. Also provides …
Chose Crunchbase
Crunchbase is definitely bottom of the barrel in this space. At similar pricing models, all competitors I have tried have significantly bigger and more updated databases. Crunchbase may have been great sometime in the past, but they are not worth engaging now.
Chose Crunchbase
Crunchbase is the best resource for prospecting startups hands down. TechTarget has a lot of useful info, but I found it to be inaccurate where it mattered most. Crunchbase's data seems more accurate, and is also easier to use. Not the most exact comparison, but they offer …
Chose Crunchbase
Sales Navigator is better only because it provides you with more direct contacts to reach out to. Crunchbase only tells you really the top dogs in the company like c-level execs, not necessarily contacts that you would be having sales conversations with.
Chose Crunchbase
Crunchbase has far more company data than LinkedIn Sales Navigator. The thing that it lacks is data on the people at those companies. LinkedIn Sales Navigator also has a better CRM integration, from what I understand. It is more automated. For our strategy, we use both of these …
Chose Crunchbase
This question always gets me. In a world with so many database solutions, it becomes quite difficult to compare, its the subtleties. Bigger is usually better...Crunchbase has gone through over 300...300 rounds of funding. In a world where there are so many options, going with …
Chose Crunchbase
I have found that Crunchbase has more up-to-date information when comparing ZoomInfo and EverString.
Chose Crunchbase
I don't know of other services like Crunchbase, in my mind it stands alone. Of course I could use FormDs, but it's cumbersome and doesn't provide the same level of information, so I rarely use it.

AeroLeads is well suited for small to medium-sized teams who run basic marketing campaigns (outbound) and have mediocre requirements of finding lead data. It also suits freelancers and consultants who want to generate leads and send cold outreach campaigns at a lower price.

The data is outdated and has significant gaps. It is mostly a replication of what is easily and publicly available, with little value added. Their predatory subscription model includes no notice of renewal and they are very antagonistic towards their customers.

Pros
  • I liked how you can access Aeroleads on LinkedIn.
  • Very easy to use and results are accurate. User-friendly, supports bulk search, you can also import your data to be used in other tools which is really cool and helpful if you want to use your data on Aeroleads to other tools. They also have a plugin that makes finding prospects easier and adding them to your list.

  • Account-Based Data. Employee range, website, industry, company description, chief executives, latest news, etc. All for the given company you are researching.
  • Salesforce integration. I have not used it, but the functionality is supposed to be great. You can run data enrichment in your CRM with the Crunchbase data.
  • Funding, mergers, and acquisitions data. Crunchbase has relationships with thousands of VC firms throughout the world and followup with each very regularly to be able to serve up the latest data to their users.
  • Tech integrations. Integrations with tools like Bombora, Builtwith, Siftery, and others are really useful because you can use Crunchbase's company profile-based research method, and see the data from these tools specifically related to the given company.

Cons
  • The plug-in can sometimes cause a lag in LinkedIn. It would be good to have a more obvious toggle to turn off the plug-in when I don't wish to use it.

  • Notifications - Something similar to TweetDeck would be nice, so that when news breaks it could be an immediate fact.
  • Honestly dont add too much because you don't want it to become more of a social tool with cluttered info, keep it straight to the point.

Do not have any complaints or problems with the current subscription. Unlike before, the service is also very quick and responsive. We don't have to be on their heads for any trouble. Also, the data we are receiving is very satisfactory and competent, thus we won't be looking for any other tool in the near future.

Usability
The tool has an edge over other such tools in the market for it'd pricing and the set of features available.

In our experience, the customer service is horrible to non existent. If we were a fortune 100 company with a staff of computer people I am sure this would be a valuable service as they would "speak the language" but that is not us. Not being able to reach customer service when we are thinking about upgrading is, in my opinion, a crazy business model.

They give standard answers. They are not a customer first business. I tried to cancel my subscription after using it for only 1 week as we found the information was outdated and not at all useful. But they would not cancel the year long subscription I mistakenly signed up for

Ptichbook. This platform is more detailed and has a lot more information regarding round details. The platform also has other features to build lists, market maps, landscapes and access reports and raw data about companies by vertical or any other segmentation. Also provides emails on c-suite. Crunchbase however is an easier tool to use so if complicated segmentation is not required, Crunchabse is a great solution. It's also super fast to access and provides a succinct and easy to read profile view.
