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

excellent supplementary resource. Again, the HG Insights Platform lacks the contact element of the research.
Chose HG Insights Platform
We have evaluated all of these vendors and some are used in tangent with the HG Insights Platform. We found that for technographic data in particular HG gave the best coverage, but a few of these do help "fill the gaps" when occasion calls. We also use multiple intent engines …
Chose HG Insights Platform
I would say most have more features and integrations but it is easier to use the HG Insights Platform. And the unique opportunity to understand who is using a competitor gives insight into where expansion could happen.
Chose HG Insights Platform
The selection of the HG Insights Platform was a strategic decision driven by our specific needs in a crowded B2B market.
Chose HG Insights Platform
The HG Insights Platform layers on the CAPDB scoring capability which I have not seen in these other systems. It will even automate this process if you are willing to pay the extra price.
Chose HG Insights Platform
The HG Insights Platform has much better technographic data than ZoomInfo

some of our sales team have used similar tools like 6sense and zoominfo, but I have not personally
Chose HG Insights Platform
- Sales Intel seems to be more of a direct competition. Their human research seems to be something interesting. Also the claim to focus on firmographics
- We went with Bombora for intent technology in the past
- We did not move forward with 6sense

Intricately and HG Focus use different methods to get to the same means. Intricately's UI/UX is more modern and clean than the others I have come across. Intricately is a newer company and has made a lot of strides since we first looked at them 3 years ago - they seem to be …

User Testimonials
AeroLeadsHG Insights Platform
Likelihood to Recommend
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 HG Insights Platform has helped us with GTM planning as we segment accounts amongst our verticals. There are verticals with specific tech stacks that we would like to prioritize, and HG Insights allows us to do that. The account scoring allows us to prioritize outreach efforts. We are able to use the technographics to weigh scoring and assign those accounts out accordingly.

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.

  • It works great for seeing if the site or app for a company is hosted on AWS.
  • Intricately uses a different approach (vs the other tools we use) - which helps confirm from another angle.
  • It has a great google chrome plug-in.
  • UI/UX is modern and clean.

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.

  • integration with SFDC could be better
  • Sometime provides back an incorrect/no match when a better is available from an uploaded file, though this is getting slightly better
  • A way to gauge how many hits you will get off an intent topic before selecting them so you don't feel like one is going to waste could be useful.

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.

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

It’s very easy to use, and the team is very responsive and friendly to work with. The information is unique and usable and can complement some of the data we get from call recordings. The integration with Salesforce is easy to implement and offers good insights into our database.

We have evaluated all of these vendors and some are used in tangent with the HG Insights Platform. We found that for technographic data in particular HG gave the best coverage, but a few of these do help "fill the gaps" when occasion calls. We also use multiple intent engines to help verify trends rather than being reliant on one platform. Other vendors also offer contact data as well which is integral for our outbound marketing campaigns which HG does not cover. Overall HG does perhaps stack up better than some of these however, it is only one source of data and using multiple is necessary to give a reliable result.

Return on Investment
  • Getting 90%+ verified emails.
  • Guiding the clients about how prospect generation can ease the sales process by automating the process of finding the relevant prospect details.
Read full review
  • I don't massively get involved in financial matters, but the propensity models we use internally to help run our campaigns are certainly a big factor when our sales people approach our clients.
  • Every campaign sold now comes with a flat data fee for us to run and use a propensity model for the activity we complete on behalf of our clients.
  • Whilst the client will never see the raw data behind the model (of which HG does play a part along with our other data sources) they are briefed on the methodology and reasoning behind them.
