Considered Both Products
D&B Connect
Chose D&B Connect
D&B Connect stands out against other D&B tools, like D&B Hoovers, due to its unique focus on data management, integration, and master data governance.
Chose D&B Connect
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.
Chose D&B Connect
I have not used other similar products.
Chose D&B Connect
They stack up to about the same playing field for what we need in our work environment.
Chose D&B Connect
In my experience, the interface is not good, and their customer service did not meet my expectations.
Chose D&B Connect
I have not used or evaluated other platforms. My experience with D&B Connect has been so great, I do not feel like evaluating other platforms would be a good use of my time. I feel this platform meets my needs and allows be to be successful in prospecting for new business.
Chose D&B Connect
In my opinion, the contacts and data quality is far better than zoominfo and lusha almost in terms of everything D&B Connect is far better
Chose D&B Connect
D&B Connect has far more features and more data points
Chose D&B Connect
Much better match rates. More sales and finance related information. More transparent and easy to use system. More functionalities compared to others, and offerings seem to be better categorized and tailored to business needs.
Chose D&B Connect
It's about the pricing and the trial they offered to us.
Chose D&B Connect
D&B Connect does a better job at account information and provided more information about an account than Zoominfo did. We compared datasets between the two companies for a subset of our customers and D&B Connect had more accurate information about accounts than Zoominfo but did …
Chose D&B Connect
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.
Chose D&B Connect
D&B Hoovers, D&B Optimizer and D&B Risk Analytics
Chose D&B Connect
For Company data, D&B is much better than ZoomInfo. For Contact data, ZoomInfo is much better than D&B.
Chose D&B Connect
Slintel has better accuracy of data and somehow I feel their accuracy in terms of detecting the buyer intent is also better, you can also try Infotelligent.
Chose D&B Connect
I have not used any other products that are similar in this aspect, but D&B connect works well for us.
Chose D&B Connect
It is one of the oldest most stable data platform and with better customization on contract.
ZoomInfo Operations
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
I think each product has their own benefits and strengths. Since I use ZoomInfo Operations on more frequent basis I like that more because of its versatility and scope.
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
We ultimately went with Zoominfo's Ringlead because there was more functionality that allowed us to segment and score records in addition to just routing them.

I would say where Distribution Engine excels over ZoomInfo technically is sticky matching owners to accounts. Ringlead …
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
I have only used ZoomInfo
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
I stacked up for ZoomInfo Operations for his data accuracy, real time enrichment , seamless CRM integrations. I choose ZoomInfo Operations for its robust GTM intelligence , ensuring our sales team engage with right audience faster and drives better conversion. This is the only …
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
We didn't find that Interseller compared. We have found that SourceWhale is a good supplement if ZoomInfo doesn't have information or accurate information for a contact.
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
ZoomInfo complements these other services, by fitting into the "process chain" of sales and acquisition. We use marketing to get the leads, operations to aggregate and qualify, ZI sales to enhance the data and fill blanks, and then ZoomInfo chat to internally spread the news.
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
This was the other tool we reviewed, but the OS applications were more detailed and had better results. Although still a good tool it just did not fit our scope for our sales group. Have yet to find any of the ZoomInfo tools to not be but quality and informational …
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
We assumed the top 2 had the same quality of data and functionality, so it became a price war and ZoomInfo offered the best deal. Other competitors seem to have sloppy data. While ZI does as well, given its age and maturity, it was a safe bet for us to make for a vendor.
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
This has a similar issue to RingLead Capture, as it only returns the data that users themselves update, which is often outdated or incorrect. However, RingLead Route does allow lead assignment and tracking in more ways than LinkedIn Sales Navigator does, which is helpful in …
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
I think EverString is more smooth and easy to juggle with. I think I used Apollo and EverString for a year and for me EverString is my practical choice. Although Apollo is a good software tool but I think EverString is more convenient and advanced. Nonetheless, they share …
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
EverString is far superior to InsideView, which contains a significant amount of outdated or inaccurate information such as companies that are no longer in business or are extremely small and being presented as much larger. The accuracy of EverString compared to InsideView is …
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
The data seems more accurate and also offers intent data within EverString.
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
RingLead DMS Capture is an interesting comparison to LinkedIn Sales Navigator, because even though it is a similar product, it also enhances and compliments the other product. There is very similar functionality in the two product. However, at the end of the day, the ability to …
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
From an enrichment standpoint, we've found Clearbit to be a very strong technology partner. Consequently, we use both Clearbit and EverString (though Clearbit is primarily used for Enrichment at this point).
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
We Zoominfo for our list building needs, because when compared to Everstring's 30-40% email quality, we found that Zoominfo is around 60% verified emails. We have found that their data filtering is much better in terms of contacts but it is hard to determine before exporting if …
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
Insideview has a much larger database of names/emails. However, their data isn't always accurate.
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
Not the right person to ask.
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
EverString is very accessible in providing data instantly, which is beneficial to our quickly growing sales team. We have a very specific audience, so EverString's capabilities to find similar companies has been key.
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
We evaluated EverString and Datafox and found that EverString had everything that we were looking for, and the sales reps were very attentive.
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
Better in terms of accuracy of contacts and their intent.
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
It's better than Marketo, but LinkedIn is working better. It finds the individual info rather than the company.
Chose ZoomInfo Operations
Everstring is the first and only product I have used that performs this task.

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.

The contact enrichment feature adds missing contact info, like emails or phone numbers. It also allows us to confirm that the address information on our CRM matches what Zoom says. I wish more emails were available within the service, but what you can glean from Zoom makes marketing to the correct personas much easier.

Pros
  • Relationships between accounts in established - this includes DUNs with Immediate DUNs, as well as Domestic ultimate parent DUNs - this then extends to global ultimate parent DUNs
  • Visitor Intelligence - de-anonymizes visitors to your tagged websites. Provides for a way to understand clicks and footfalls within the web pages so that prospecting and customer service can be improved
  • Keeps account data real by providing near-real-time enrichment.

  • EverString allows us to build account lists based off in-depth firmographic or technographic data. It's far more accurate than trying to build these lists any other way.
  • EverString is fast. Where it might've previously taken us weeks to build lists of this quality, we now can build them in a matter of minutes (and have them ready to be published in a couple of hours).

Cons
  • in my opinion having to split usage between United States and International does not make sense on why this needs to be done....recommend eliminating this
  • need for improvement on error resolution....when an error is found the D&B resolution team is EXTREMELY difficult to work with...very clunky and automated when there is a need for personnal interaction

  • Contacts underneath Companies can be outdated by 4+ years (left employer years prior).
  • Customer support is not as engaged as a smaller software company might be. Delays in solving issues.
  • Limits in sharing lists, queries, and tags between users under the same account.

Would love to keep everstring as part of our tech stack in the future. if we ever have to move from everstring it will be due to budget not the solution itself.

Usability
For more advanced uses, it's hard to get it functioning properly right out of the box. It definitely takes some fiddling to get the systems up and running, especially if you have multiple streams of data that need to be managed across systems.
Read full review
Usability is among the highest I have ever worked within an application of this magnitude. It was a significant recession for us and our sales team along with some of our onboarding folks have been able to use the tool as well. Other are able to benefit as well that are outside of the sales team but I do get as much of their feedback as I do from the sales team.

Have a plan on how you're going to evaluate. We had a two-month trial period, but a six-month average lead cycle time, making it impossible to evaluate on a purely new-business ROI basis within the trial. We applied the model to our prior data, which demonstrated how much time and effort was devoted to accounts that weren't going to close

I haven't tried stacking it against any competition as I feel no need to. ZoomInfo blows me away like it first did in 2018, and I don't want something different. I hear Clay is good, but I just haven't felt the need to try it out or replace ZoomInfo at all.

Return on Investment
  • ROI can be achieved anywhere between 6 to 12 months depending upon your business.
  • The product is expensive but the data provided is good to an extent and a big sale can help achieve your ROI.
  • The data accuracy sometimes can be bad leading to bad domain reputation.

  • The rate we close prospects run through Zoom products is up 10% on average
  • The time to close a prospect has been reduced by one calendar week (about 5%)
  • The time spent reviewing prospects has shrunk from 1-2 hours a week to 5-10 minutes which is HUGE.
