Considered Both Products
Bombora
Chose Bombora
They are different platforms, we actually think they both work in unison, as Bombora does not provide as much granular information on the company and who is actually searching, however, they provide a stronger initial overview of user intent than other products and a holistic …

N/A - have not evaluated other services.
Chose Bombora
Albacross is more specific to anon user identification on our personal site, which is exact product buying intent rather than just industry. Bombora give broader insight, albacross more specified.
Chose Bombora
On a par, we use all three of these either currently or in the past
Each tool has its benefits it would be good for the tools to co-exist and learn to further the improvement
Bombora is the current go to and continues to deliver - that said the marketplace is competitive, so we …
Chose Bombora
Above average performance on a broader base of contacts
Chose Bombora
Enjoy Bombora a lot more than when we had Demandbase. DB seemed a lot clunkier, harder to use. Salespeople didn't trust the data as much.
Chose Bombora
One major factor that influenced to have Bombora apart from the quality of data is competitive pricing.
Chose Bombora
Having a true understanding of WHERE the data comes from and how it is collected was a question no other intent data providers could give us a straight answer on. With Bombora, we know exactly where it comes from, how it's scored, and what our next step is to leverage the data.
Chose Bombora
Bombora doesn't give you a token for the number of accounts that are populated. You can search and request as many as you'd like. With other platforms, they provide you a token, and if you use all your tokens for the month, then you have to wait til next month.
Chose Bombora
Bombora has a far lower expense for the service, despite the quality of data. It is a big enough gap to be a major factor in deciding which product to use, for still excellent quality data in comparison to Clearbit. It is also much easier to integrate with our services.
Chose Bombora
I haven't compared them to other vendors, but I have heard of 6sense.
Chose Bombora
I haven't used any other, as Bombora has always remained the best in class in my experience.
Chose Bombora
6sense, G2 for Buyers, TechTarget Priority Engine, ZoomInfo SalesOS and LinkedIn Sales Navigator
Chose Bombora
While we use both TechTarget and Bombora at our company, Bombora provides a better high level view for our Marketing department to use for our various programs and initiatives. On the other hand, TechTarget is a better tool for Sales to easily identify prospects with high …
Chose Bombora
I do not have a ton of experience with the other products but from the demos and calls I was on Bombora was the leading product in this area.

Additionally, the main deciding factor about choosing Bombora was their stellar sales team that prioritized our business needs over any …
Chose Bombora
Bombora is solid, but room for improvement
Chose Bombora
We saw more features with some competitors, but Bombora fits into our budget nicely and is a nice starting tool.
Chose Bombora
If Bombora is the fuel for the engine (the data), then 6sense and Qualified are the airplanes. We were looking for more data/fuel to throw on our revenue generating engine and didn't need a full suite of features to automate our outreach for us. We are a small company and …
Chose Bombora
Bombora provides the best B2B targeting solutions for paid media relative to competitors. Madison Logic is a great B2B provider for brands looking to get content (e.g. case studies, white papers, eBooks, etc.) distributed and syndicated to a broader B2B audience. Bombora …
Chose Bombora
Bombora is still the best intent data provider but ZoomInfo is catching up very quick. ZoomInfo has a leg up on Bombora as they now have steaming intent data which updates daily, vs Bombora that only updates weekly. ZoomInfo is a one stop shop for B2B GTM data where Bombora is …
Lead411
Chose Lead411
We've also used RocketReach. All of the others we have tried appear to only provide information that I can easily get from my own Linkedin account, making them a waste of our time & money. We have always come back to Lead411. The breadth & depth of information they provide is …
Chose Lead411
Lead411, provided us more bang for our dollar. Comprehensive information at a good price; after careful comparison, we chose Lead411 because of its value. But it's not a poor man's platform, it's very robust and provides excellent search capabilities too.
Chose Lead411
Data.com - out of business. NetProspex - sold to Dunn and Bradstreet. Lead411 is the least expensive of all legitimate data providers.
Chose Lead411
I do not have experience with other companies. I chose [Lead411] for their generous offer of 50 emails
Chose Lead411
The database they have is much bigger than some other companies I have worked with. Their pricing is also good and is budget-friendly and working on the advanced search function is quite intuitive.
Chose Lead411
We had never used a service such as this and for the price and tools available, it made the most sense for us.
Chose Lead411
The other products we evaluated either had less data or were far more costly. Lead411 has been a good value for us.
Chose Lead411
Zoominfo is too expensive and Uplead has a terrible trial period and I could not accurately test it before purchase
Chose Lead411
All other tools are max capturing information from a website or other sources. Mostly they are landing into toll-free numbers or customer support. We people in our organization looking for board numbers which direct to decision-maker easily.This tool resolves the issue for us. …
Chose Lead411
So far, in my short month using this program, I have managed to land business with two companies! The pricing helps.
Chose Lead411
Lead411 is nice because we have control over the searches.
Chose Lead411
So far it has been the most consistently reliable services we have used for this purpose
Chose Lead411
I have had more success with Lead411 during a trial period compared to their competitors in terms of reaching the targeted prospect by email.
Chose Lead411
Zoominfo certainly is class when it comes to its capabilities. That said, if you're in a heavy outbound role and you just want to get down to the nitty gritty Lead411 is a cost effective measure to get you the information you need to be as successful as you can possibly be.
Chose Lead411
False or wrong information. Lusha gave me someone's phone number, very embarrassing calling the wrong number. Lusha gave me wrong telephone numbers right off the bat. Some are tied to only LinkedIn and no search feature. UpLead hard to learn and wrong email addresses or company …
Chose Lead411
There are a ton of competitors. Since I've been using them for so long I believe their pricing packages may have changed. However, I found that for the price and functionality they are far and away the biggest bang for your buck. Honestly they are sort of my secret weapon.
Chose Lead411
I've used a number of competing B2B tools and contact/data providers. The contact data from Lead411 has proven to be very helpful with specific campaigns. I'm especially appreciative of the Trigger-Based Sales Intelligence...and look to utilize this MORE!
Chose Lead411
They are great as a backup provider.....we use ZoomInfo as the main provider and are evaluating DiscoverOrg when renewal is up.
Chose Lead411
Lead411 has a better interface. Their database is all cloud-based which meant accessing it from anywhere. Lead411 also provided access to more candidates and sales leads in our opinion.
Chose Lead411
Discover.org was a product I used often at another company but is useless in my new company and industry. They are very limited and industry specific which is a shame considering they offer a good product. Insideview is a comparable product but again we could not find enough …

If they want to use the data within the Bombora environment and generate reports within the environment, I think you get some great insights into what a company is researching. When you try to download the data and build your own reports, it is not easy to do. The download part is easy, it is the data wrangling afterward that is tricky.

[Lead411 is well suited for] lead generation where the phone numbers are verified and the email addresses are verified, I find them to have a high rate of accuracy. The ability to filter to the verified information is very user friendly. I do wish the number of verified emails and phone numbers were higher.

  • Most importantly --- The DATA is accurate and the platform is straight-forward and simple to use. The native connection to our CRM environment "completes the requirement" from our standpoint. A "10 out of 10"...
  • From my experiences and interactions, the culture of the organization is exceptionally focused on customer satisfaction! We've been more than pleased with EVERY SINGLE interaction with Lead411....they go out of their way to be of assistance. A "10 out of 10"...

Cons
  • Analytics Reports - could be more automated and user-friendly. Instead of selecting all of the intent topics, it would be great to be able to use the previously defined intent clusters.
  • Industry categories - are very generic, making it difficult to identify the specific companies of interest.
Read full review
  • I do get a few emails that HubSpot says "bounced globally" which means I wasted an export. I think it's under 5%, so it's not a major issue.
  • The UI is adequate, but not fun to use. Others with better UIs had less or less accurate data though.

Usability
I give Bombora an 8 as they do intent well for now. Not a 10 because again its a one trick pony where there are other platforms like ZoomInfo that offer intent as well plus so much more. From an end user perspective, I'd like Bombora to build out first party intent data capabilities to combine into the scoring.

I would rate Lead411’s overall usability a 9 out of 10. The platform is intuitive, easy to navigate, and provides quick access to accurate data. Features like advanced search filters and integrations make it seamless for sales teams. Minor improvements could be made in global data coverage, but overall, it’s highly efficient and user-friendly.

Our CSM team is always available for us to meet with via an outreach click to book an invite and we have standing meetings. They met with us on day 1 of implementation and had us up and running that evening. They even go to the lengths of matching industry tenured folks with us to help us move faster.

Return on Investment
  • While ABM is always hard to specifically pinpoint a hard # against, I'd say that Bombora has been a big part of every marketing campaign, ad creation, go-to-market messaging towards x account, Refining Marketing & Sales intelligence from an ABM Function.

  • The majority of my closed business since my subscription began about a year ago has come from intelligence and contact information from Lead411, a figure that many times exceeds the cost of the subscription. Fantastic investment.
  • Using Lead411 is like having my own inside sales rep conducting company research, finding out relevant contact information, compiling sales triggers in specific vertical markets, and much more. Frees me up to sit on appointments and sell.
  • Lead411 does the grunt work for you, giving you back countless hours in your sales month for actual selling and moving deals through the sales process, significantly speeding up my sales processes from initial appointment to closed business. My typical sales cycle before Lead411, from initial contact to signed contract in hand, was 8-10 weeks. Since using Lead411, it's now 4-6. Yes, that big a difference.
