Considered Both Products
Data.com (discontinued)
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
The accuracy of Data.com versus SalesIntel is second to none. Data.com integrates with our current Salesforce platform, which takes out a lot of the manual manipulation of lists that we used to have to do when we had other platforms. This is particularly helpful because time is …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
Adobe Workfront may not be the direct competitor of Data.com, but for the services I was using, Workfront looked a little better when it comes to the user interface. But Data.com definitely had more powerful features & better integration capabilities. Also, it was easier to …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
My client chose Data.com based on the experience during the evaluation period and the cost comparison. Data.com was the better-suited solution in this scenario. The size of the InsideView database was significantly smaller than Data.com and had limitations on downloads that …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
Data.com is free. That is definitely the most appealing part. You have nothing to lose, so might as well utilize an additional resource.
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
I have only been exposed to Data.com in this solution category. I am familiar with other comparable names, but since we are Salesforce-centric, Data.com is the tool of choice.
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
Data.com has a much bigger database than SharpSpring, making it a much more useful tool. Both tools integrated seamlessly into our CRM. Data.com's filtering capabilities make it a much more useful tool for us as we are able to segment lists better, and find contacts and …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
What I have found is that no single platform provides all the data we need, even Data.com. There are often inconsistencies between the information found on Data.com versus other platforms so we are using Data.com in parallel with these other platforms. The interface and the …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
I feel RainKing is the winner regarding just contact details and org charts within companies. Their info is better up to date and a little easier to manage and search. However, Data.com might have the advantage when it comes to company breakdown, allowing for actual financial …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
Data.com is great for filtering and finding specific contact and company information. Unfortunately much of that information is old and outdated. We recently did not renew our subscription with Data.com because we felt it could use improvement. We now use Winmo which provides …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
When we first purchased Datanyze, they had an email address portion of the site. The platform changed about halfway through our contract and no longer included access to email information. I believe that functionality is back as a feature of Datanyze. However, it always seemed …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
The other crowd sourced data provider I've used is ZoomInfo. ZoomInfo generally has more direct numbers, however it appears as if they've done away with their free tier. The other downside of Zoom was you give them access to your email for them to data mine contacts. On the …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
I have used data.com for about 6 months longer than zoominfo. Honestly, zoominfo seems to have more accurate data and the company bios are extremely helpful, as well as the integration in the form of an entire section of the page in salesforce.
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
Currently I have subscriptions to Zoominfo, Synthio, and GetEmail.IO in addition to my data.com (Jigsaw) account. Zoominfo is much better than Data.com for direct phone numbers and is very reasonably priced. Synthio has slightly lower quality data but can be much cheaper on a …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
Once the scraper products became unusable Data.com became more valuable
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
I used DiscoverOrg at a previous employer and I loved it. The information I received was usually reliable and quality, however, the service was quite expensive and I was only able to research the tech industry.

hunter.io is fairly unreliable. The good thing is that they have a …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
Data.com is tightly integrated with Salesforce. Given the expensive cost of Salesforce licenses, throwing this as an "add-on" is easy to justify internally as well.
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
DiscoverOrg is another database for contact information. We actually use these two resources side by side. We use DiscoverOrg as our primary source since we pay for the subscription and it integrates more easily with our CRMs. Data.com is used by our SDRs as supplementary …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
I feel like DiscoverOrg has more as a whole, but Data.com is much easier to navigate and gain insight on prospective companies.
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
I recently used quickmail for a client, it was awful. Software should actually perform its purpose. If you only have a few thousand contacts in a database, just provide the whole list. Using a search function where there aren't any results the last 15 searches, is worthless. …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
Data.com was very comparable to the other softwares our oganization uses, and we use it as an everyday tool because of how easy it is to work within salesforce. Our organization utilizes multiple platforms and competitors of Data.com, each for their own different reasons. The …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
Compared to a Dunns or an alternate tool I feel data.com gives better integration with salesforce which can help to maintain clean information. Additionally I believe that the cost for something like data.com is a bit more reasonable than some of the alternatives. If you are …
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
I've used other lead generating services, but they were unresponsive when I informed them of incorrect or updated data. Data.com's user community is very involved in the integrity of the data.
Chose Data.com (discontinued)
I also use Advertising Database, this tool doesn't have the robust database but it does have valuable market information that can be used. AdData also can identify marketers and their agencies. This is something that would be a great tool if it lived with in Data.com. …
Winmo
Chose Winmo
I've used a few different services like Winmo, one of them being seamless. Winmo was a lot easier to use and the information that I gather from Winmo seems to be a lot more accurate and easy to navigate. User experience is a big deal, the easier to find information the better.
Chose Winmo
Winmo provides much more robust data in an easier-to-digest and uses the platform for multiple users. The search function is superior and easier to use as well as the simplified interface and digest tools. The daily leads email is especially helpful if not a bit "last minute" …
Chose Winmo
UpLead was too basic and ZoomInfo was too expensive for us. Hence we selected Winmo given its range of databases in terms of marketing teams and decision-makers. Winmo also had a good integration solution with our CRM - Salesforce and HubSpot, making it easier for our sales …
Chose Winmo
Much better and more detailed lists
Chose Winmo
Winmo is a valuable and powerful lead filtering and customer acquisition tool that does some really important things very well and better than other tools: lead filtering and sorting (great advanced search features), client and agency relationship information (very up-to-date …
Chose Winmo
Winmo's Adbeat platform is great for industry news and announcements - simpler U/X than MediaRadar.
Chose Winmo
If you're targeting marketers, Winmo's data is much more accurate and complete as compared to competitors. The data integrations far exceed any competitors I have worked with previously.
Chose Winmo
Winmo is a much better product but Winmo just aquired both competititors anyway.
Chose Winmo
Winmo provides more industry and company information than data.com, but there are fewer lead data and the data is not as up-to-date as data.com. Winmo is a more robust platform that data.com, but the integration with Salesforce is not as clean as data.com, but that makes sense …
Chose Winmo
Winmo is better than Sales Nav because it gives contact information and much more detailed/insider information that you can't find on LinkedIn.. But both LinkedIn Sales Navigator and Winmo each serves a useful purpose - I use both and find them to work nicely as a pair. While …
Chose Winmo
I have never used a product quite like Winmo. I have always been left to prospect myself, cold calling and not having the proper industry information to be educated in my pitch.
Chose Winmo
I currently use both Winmo and MediaRadar. Winmo has the most relevant information in general and is what I use on a daily basis, specifically the WinmoEdge feature. I love that it gets sent to my inbox every day. For me, Media Radar is a supplement product. I find that often …
Chose Winmo
Winmo is similar to Pearlfinders in the sense that you get a daily report with sales insights. Winmo has more features including a contact database and insights into company agency relationships, both current and past.
Chose Winmo
Winmo has been used in our department for some time. It is easy to use and the support team is top notch.

Data.com (discontinued)Winmo
Likelihood to Recommend
Data.com is a good prospecting and data information tool for any agency or company doing outbound prospecting. Data.com requires you to also have Salesforce CRM, so this tool is really only suited for those companies that can afford Salesforce. Because of this, Data.com seems like a better fit for companies with at least 30 or more employees (total in the company) and at least 5 Salesforce users. Data.com is not a good fit for small businesses.

Winmo is best suited when you know which company you are looking for, but are missing some information, including key contacts, agency relationships, and quarterly advertising budgets. Scenarios where it is less appropriate are when you already know which company/contact you are looking for, and you are merely looking for company info to provide context

Pros
  • The contact information the website provides tends to be accurate.
  • I like that it is free and works on a point system- the more info you give, the more info you get.
  • I like that you can update contact information as needed.

  • Great insight into personnel changes and upcoming campaigns at major media spending accounts and agencies.
  • Correct contact information at the agency and client level, often with email and phone numbers.
  • Up-to-date agency/client relationships. Particularly valuable when a client hires/fires a new agency.

Cons
  • Even though it has a lot of features, sometimes it gets overwhelming for a newbie. So I would really appreciate it if the user interface gets more friendly.
  • There are some digital advertising channels that Data.com struggles to connect. Also, within some channels like LinkedIn, it would be great if data.com could get more granular on ad type, ad targeting level (speaking from a marketing perspective).
  • It has limited visualization capabilities where there is a lot of scope for improvement.
Read full review
  • The contact info can be somewhat stale...it pays to double-check LinkedIn first to see if a particular contact still has that position.
  • Would like to see more info on lesser-known brands, since the big brands often mentioned are already inundated with sales inquiries.

Usability
Very intuitive to use and I've never had any confusion with features. Anyone can create an account and use the platform simply by adding a contact or company into the database to earn points. It's a great option if you don't have budget for lists or pay services. It is easy to use and anyone can benefit from it.

Whenever I've had a question their support has responded pretty quickly and gives me exactly what I am looking for. I have not had any technical issues so I can't speak to issues there, but as far as general questions from a free user they have impressed me with how quickly they get back to me and the thoroughness of their answers.

Return on Investment
  • As a freelancer, I've made thousands of dollars building sales lists, for what began as a $50 trial.
  • Cross referencing with LinkedIn helps to explain to clients the job title progression a person has had, which can add to your credibility and strengthen your report content.
  • Data.com hasn't had a negative return for me. Every dollar and minute of effort I have used it was worth it.
Read full review
  • I can say that acquiring this software has been profitable for the agency because we have increased our client portfolio, and we have also reduced the hours we used to invest in the search for new clients and contacts. The list of contacts it provides us with is always very useful and they almost always become clients.
