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 CB Insights
Traditional research services by market and product just can't keep up anymore, in my opinion. We had to seek out who could, and our choice of CB Insights two years ago has proven to be one of the smartest choices we've ever made.

Likelihood to Recommend
Transparency - we were reading a lot of hype about Bitcoin, and it was in every market sector. Those of us who remember 2001, were alarmed. But digging through to find the truth was a challenge. CB Insights provided regular, extensive data every week, more often at the peak. We are certain our own analysis was correct based on that and stopped worrying that we might have missed a market opportunity.

This is one of two providers to go with if you are considering an investor relations website. We evaluated both of them and landed on Q4 Desktop due to their reputation of solid customer service. The additional CRM software is a nice to have as there are many other solutions you may have access to before you make that product your main go to.

Return on Investment
  • Positive in both volume and detail of the most relevant information upon which to make key strategic decisions.
  • It's not an inexpensive service, but worth the price given the accuracy, timeliness and criticality of the information they are able to provide.
  • Strategy - strategy - strategy! There's no way anyone could gather that much intelligence in just one stop with any other service.
