We have not evaluated any other products.
Chose D&B Connect
Not at the top, but pretty good compared to others. The price and overall usability of the solution would put it in the top 5 options from what I have used. If D&B can make more updates and improvements, then there is potential to be better in the near future.
Chose D&B Connect
Dun & Bradstreet Hoovers is the searchable platform for company information and contact data. Although it's purpose is different from D&B Connect, it does use the same data on the background.

D&B Connect allows for a huge array of data values to choose from. Tamr is limited in that it only assists in identifying duplicate data records and highlighting the most accurate record from among the duplicates based on customizable filters.

Overall, the program can assist any size company with all credit
reference needs. We have not run into any issues other than the overall
cost of the program and the fact that you have to use additional funds
to seek information on international customers.

It is a robust software with great management and data model. It can be difficult to learn how to use and deploy the first time but the mapping and features work very well and have optimized our productivity and cost savings. We can customize reports, create rules and integrate with other applications. Overall I recommend it.
