Chose eGrabber eMail-Prospector
We have used Atomic Email Hunter for quite a bit, but this is a manual task and takes more time to accomplish the same thing with lower probabilities of success. eGrabber just is a lot more powerful but also a bit more pricy. But to us it is worth its weight in gold.

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.

I would say eGrabber is well suited for those looking for specific large amount (100+) individuals and their email addresses and to increase the probabilities of getting directly in front of prospect. Probably does not make much sense for those looking for 01-99 contacts as the time spent maybe not worth the cost. This really is a cost benefit item. What's your time worth?

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

  • The "gatekeeper" is the toughest obstacle you will face while trying to reach a possible prospect. The eMail-Prospector gives you the opportunity to bypass that obstacle. All you need is the contact name and company.
  • Fast and Efficient. In less than a minute, you can obtain the contact information you need. It's amazing how efficient the program is by producing correct information that is verifiable.
  • Ease of Use. The program is so easy yet very sophisticated. All you need is a name and the company information - and you're already halfway there to getting viable contact information.
  • Value. Within the first few weeks of using eMail-Prospector - it had basically paid for itself. By having the information for the correct contact person - my percentage of closing possible sales prospects increased by 50%.

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.)

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.
