We utilize both for the most accurate information in terms of employee count of company, location of headquarters address, validity of what current technology that may be using today. Also cross reference this information with LinkedIn and other sites to get the best info …

Better UI and integrations.
Chose DataFox (discontinued)
It is an easy to use tool and the integration with Salesforce works well. Also, it was a real time-saver when it comes to looking for information about companies where you want to make a pitch,
Chose DataFox (discontinued)
DataFox is very intuitive and has a good artificial intelligence that works really fine for our field teams focused on big accounts. Gives metrics associated with the lead or client and it can be linked to Salesforce making it a tool that adds up to the existing tech stack in …
Chose DataFox (discontinued)
Because I haven't only ever used DataFox, I can't compare it to one of their competitors. I can say however that this solution is a hundred times better than scouring websites for company lists and manually assembling Excel spreadsheets.
Chose DataFox (discontinued)
DataFox has a very simple to use interface and has great coverage across our ICP. DataFox yielded the highest match rate on the data diagnostic tests indicating that they had great potential in expanding our addressable market. For the kind of functionality, DataFox is much …
Chose DataFox (discontinued)
Datafox is incredibly easy to use and set up. This is extremely vital when you launch it to sales and SDR teams that care less about learning a new platform and want to start getting value out of something ASAP. It may have some gaps when it comes to contact and international …

Apologies - there are a few others that are not coming to the top of my head aside Hoover's but I have experience with 4-5 similar tools. What makes DataFox stand out is its ability to group companies by keyword and insight into transactions.
Datanyze
Chose Datanyze
I've used products like Builtwith and Wappalyzer and neither compare to the level and organization of data within Datanyze. It's much more robust and easy to access. However, it isn't perfect and sometimes needs to be updated, or removed and re-installed simply for it to function
Chose Datanyze
BuiltWith does not offer as comprehensive of a software analysis compared to Datanyze. You can get by with BuiltWith, but for larger non-profit organizations that have many different systems, Datanyze is a better fit. When working with smaller organizations, you can get by just …
Chose Datanyze
I think Clearbit is a superior product to Datanyze, though it isn't always as user-friendly as Datanyze always was. Clearbit has much better integrations with email service providers so that you can get accurate information on people you solicit as you are writing them emails …
Chose Datanyze
We assessed a Datanyze competitor called Datafox multiple times via calls and meetings. They reach out to us all the time but overall we felt that Datanyze seemed like the better product and was also a little more affordable.
Chose Datanyze
We used to use RainKing, but found the quality of the data extremely lacking. Roles had changed, contact info had changed, and we were not seeing the engagement from outreach to those lists. Also aware of ZoomInfo, but did not try that after results with RainKing.
Chose Datanyze
We use both tools as neither has the complete data set that our sales team needs. Datanyze is one of the best for company data points and technologies that a company uses, but we use ZoomInfo and others to get email addresses and phone numbers once we identify our target …
Chose Datanyze
We selected Datanyze at the time because it was the most comprehensive in terms of the types of accounts they had profiled in their database as compared to ZoomInfo and DiscoverOrg. Datanyze has really strong search/list building functionality. At this point within our team, …
Chose Datanyze
The UI of Datanyze is better than some of the alternatives. They also maintain information on certain technologies that other vendors do not. I also like the company notification (i.e. when a company changes a technology). As far as other features, I have seen that they are …
Chose Datanyze
Datanyze has done a sufficient job at providing me and my team with insights in the mobile industry. They do not have an iOS footprint like the other platforms I have used like Mixrank and Apptopia. I have found Datanyze's SDK information on the Google Playstore to be the most …
Chose Datanyze
I recently evaluated a few other techno-graphic companies, and they seemed to be more expensive when it comes to the cost of exporting data.
Chose Datanyze
Datanyze has much deeper information around the tech stacks that companies are using. They are not always 100% accurate but I have found them to be much better than other solutions. We selected them because they are laser focused on what they do and not trying to be all things …
Chose Datanyze
Datanyze was originally offering contact information. This was a main reason for choosing the service. Something happened and they no longer offered emails for company contacts. Had we known the contact feature wasn't going to be a part of the service in the future, we wouldn't …
Chose Datanyze
Datanyze is solid product but needs to expand its iOS support and improve some of its accuracy. Overall I like it more than the other platforms and we currently have a annual subscription with them.
Chose Datanyze
Data.com has better lead info but Datanyze allows you to look into the technologies used by a company which provides a great deal of benefit when prospecting so that you know what questions to ask when trying to start or influence a conversation.

Likelihood to Recommend
I would definitely recommend DataFox to any sales team that wants their prospecting to be improved. If a company has trouble finding companies that fit their customer segments, then DataFox can probably solve that issue. I took 2 points off and gave an 8/10 because of the inaccuracy that is sometimes encountered in the lists generated and in the employee count.

Pros
  • Initial sync with CRM is relatively effortless
  • Signal Data provided for each company is extremely valuable for targeting
  • Great Customer success team

  • Compared to BuiltWith, Datanyze recognizes more software vendors.
  • I'm given so much information when I pull Datanyze that I normally don't have to waste time on a website figuring out what software a prospect is using.
  • The breakdown of software vendors with logos is very user-friendly.

Cons
  • I wish there was the ability to score/prioritize by different types of models (this would allow you prioritize different variations of account "profiles" vs. a catch-all score.
  • There could be better contact data, but contact data is hard to come by (unless you're crawling linkedin/email signatures for the real deal).
  • This isn't really a knock on Datafox, but I hope for a more robust API integration to other platforms that would benefit from account/contact data (Yesware, ChiliPiper, etc.)

  • The browser extension times out a lot so can be a pain.
  • It would be great to have a better mobile app of this or at least be able to view this data on the go in an easier to read format. The app is limited in functionality.

Return on Investment
  • It has no impact on my region because of the lack of information.
  • Works only for the teams focused on big companies so SME teams don't benefit from it.
  • It is a great tool to prioritize big accounts.

  • Datanyze reduced our time to prospect leads by at least 50%.
  • It created a go-to place for us to research prospects and got everyone on the team on the same page in regards to our data.
  • Datanyze increased our number of relevant conversations by at least 2x because we have confidence when reaching out to a company that we can speak directly to their need.
