    Chose CB Insights
    Pitch book was our favorite resource, until we started using CB Insights. CB Insights just has far better coverage and include very extensive private company intelligence too which adds a level of customer insight accuracy that no one else can.

    Chose PitchBook
    PitchBook does a good job at listing and organizing all the data needed right up front. No hidden tabs or things for me to dive deeper on. Very simple to use. I think PitchBook market maps are not as good as CB Insights.

    Chose PitchBook
    PitchBook has the most accurate and complete data. CB Insights platform loads slightly more quickly and is a little more intuitive, but lacks data integrity. Tracxn is not easy to use, but offers some data on a lot of international and small, non-VC or PE-backed companies. …

    Chose PitchBook
    PitchBook is one of the best. More usable than Bloomberg Terminal though it has less information. It is similar to Crunchbase. CB Insights and AngelList have more lists of prominent companies in a field/specific search space.

    Chose PitchBook
    The strength of Pitchbook is its consistency. While many of the competitors do one aspect better than Pitchbook, Pitchbook does each aspect I am looking for well. In other words, while Pitchbook might not be the #1 in a specific category, they are always at least #2 so that …

    Chose PitchBook
    We actually use both. CBInsights we use more regularly for market capture, and PitchBook when we are actively seeking acquisitions.
