Data Axle Genie vs. HG Insights Platform

Salesgenie is great for business to consumer. If you are a financial adviser, insurance sales rep or solar sales, this is an ideal low-cost database that will help significantly. However, if you sell Business to Business, I would not recommend this product. It is not geared toward corporate structure and doesn't provide any value.

The HG Insights Platform has helped us with GTM planning as we segment accounts amongst our verticals. There are verticals with specific tech stacks that we would like to prioritize, and HG Insights allows us to do that. The account scoring allows us to prioritize outreach efforts. We are able to use the technographics to weigh scoring and assign those accounts out accordingly.

• I liked the organization of the database it was easy to maneuver.
• Search was fairly easy to maintain.
• If you want to create a list of leads this will work. However, it is primarily for consumer leads not B2B.

• It works great for seeing if the site or app for a company is hosted on AWS.
• Intricately uses a different approach (vs the other tools we use) - which helps confirm from another angle.
• It has a great google chrome plug-in.
• UI/UX is modern and clean.

• We have a very specific industry and sometimes drilling down to these leads can be challenging. But with customer service, they have solved this for us.

• integration with SFDC could be better
• Sometime provides back an incorrect/no match when a better is available from an uploaded file, though this is getting slightly better
• A way to gauge how many hits you will get off an intent topic before selecting them so you don't feel like one is going to waste could be useful.

It was good when we had it but there definitely more softwares out there that provide more information, more current contact info and are much more user friendly

Easy to use and great customer service.

It’s very easy to use, and the team is very responsive and friendly to work with. The information is unique and usable and can complement some of the data we get from call recordings. The integration with Salesforce is easy to implement and offers good insights into our database.

Spot on and always available.

Zoom Info is always going to be the most robust. They have the best-verified data in the area. BUT they are incredibly expensive. Data Axel Genie is actually less expensive, but you get what you pay for. You may not have the cleanest contacts, but you have more options.

We have evaluated all of these vendors and some are used in tangent with the HG Insights Platform. We found that for technographic data in particular HG gave the best coverage, but a few of these do help "fill the gaps" when occasion calls. We also use multiple intent engines to help verify trends rather than being reliant on one platform. Other vendors also offer contact data as well which is integral for our outbound marketing campaigns which HG does not cover. Overall HG does perhaps stack up better than some of these however, it is only one source of data and using multiple is necessary to give a reliable result.

• Positive, I was able to generate about three more proposals a week
• Positive nice organization to establish a call list
• Nice structure, great way to target hot or cold leads. Great way to get your feet wet

• I don't massively get involved in financial matters, but the propensity models we use internally to help run our campaigns are certainly a big factor when our sales people approach our clients.
• Every campaign sold now comes with a flat data fee for us to run and use a propensity model for the activity we complete on behalf of our clients.
• Whilst the client will never see the raw data behind the model (of which HG does play a part along with our other data sources) they are briefed on the methodology and reasoning behind them.
