Considered Both Products
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.
PersistIQ
Chose PersistIQ
We decided on PersistIQ because it was cheaper than the incumbents and as we were starting we wanted to see if this would be helpful or relevant to us. We later discovered Apollo.io and we might switch to them as they are also cheap and look better, but we might also get back …
Chose PersistIQ
I've used both PersistIQ and Outreach in the past 2 years, so I feel my comparisons should still be fairly accurate. Persist is better for smaller, earlier stage companies looking for a cheaper and easy sales automation tool. Outreach is definitely the more powerful and …
Chose PersistIQ
Outreach has more features for email sending alone, along with other features that help with sales. It helps make it a more all-in-one platform rather than just an email tool. I feel that Persist IQ doesn't go far beyond a mass email tool.
Chose PersistIQ
PersistIQ is the simplest and most affordable of the solutions I compared it against. It just works for most use cases.
Chose PersistIQ
Compared to MailChimp, Persist IQ allows for more personalization, simpler emails, and more complete campaigns. Mailchimp is basically a tool for bulk email with heavy design.

Versus Marketo, PersistIQ is much more user friendly. You don't need to be an engineer or SQL master to …
Chose PersistIQ
I haven't used many other mass email tools, but when I was investigating, PersistIQ was a very good bang for the buck. They are a relatively small investment for the technology, compared to their competitors. I also love that I can always email or use the widget to reach …
Chose PersistIQ
MailChimp isn't for cold emails, it is used for newsletters, and I think that if we were to try our campaign on MailChimp they would shut our account down within a matter of hours without any chance of recovery. PersistIQ is clear about what they are supposed to be used for …
Chose PersistIQ
They provided a rational approach which did not prove true for us.

Datanyze can be a useful tool for understanding your market. You're able to use Datanyze to see how many people are using your technology as well as who is using your competitors. Receiving alerts on who is adding and dropping you vs your competitors is always helpful. It's a tool that can potentially give back as much as you put in.

Probably ok if you really don't care who you are sending your outreach to. Really bad for anyone who cares about sending a specific message to a specific audience. Probably not great for clients who enjoy reliable communication, quality results, or actually receiving what you're paying for.

Pros
  • 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.

  • Integrates well with tools that work with LinkedIn Sales Navigator to scrap lead emails.
  • Makes it easy to manage large-scale cold email campaigns with 3+ steps.
  • When a prospect replies to an email, it doesn't send them any of the automated emails which allow me to follow-up with those warm leads correctly.

Cons
  • 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.

  • There are some issues with downloading reports. That is, some information is only available in-product and you cannot export these things.
  • Creating dynamic replies or steps in Persist isn't currently available.
  • Sometimes the Persist system doesn't catch errors in unfilled prospect fields. One must be check and be careful not to send these types of emails.

In my opinion, poor service, and in our experience, ignoring our advise on who our customers are.

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 accurate when determining SDKs within apps

Compared to MailChimp, Persist IQ allows for more personalization, simpler emails, and more complete campaigns. MailChimp is basically a tool for bulk email with heavy design. Versus Marketo, PersistIQ is much more user friendly. You don't need to be an engineer or SQL master to use Persist. It's made for sales and marketing folks. Marketo is built for bigger teams with engineers and CRM experts. Marketo is better for nurture campaigns and automated email, plus database management and as a CRM. But Persist is a much lighter option and it's WAY cheaper. I've used the Gmail plug-in for HubSpot and their templates feature. It's not great for bulk email or building out campaigns, but it's nice to have canned messages right in Gmail. To use PersistIQ on the other hand, one must work directly in their system, not in Gmail, although replies and sent messages do go directly though the email provider.

Return on Investment
  • 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.

  • I have 100% closed multiple deals due to my outreach on PersistIQ.
  • Outside of closing deals, this has been a great tool for getting me in front of a lot of high profile clients.
  • I have easily paid for my license with PersistIQ in 8 months.
