Chose Demandbase One
I have only used Demandbase One so far, but I have heard from other colleagues that they prefer this tool over other tools they have used in the past. The only comparison I can make is doing it manually, which makes a massive difference, so I recommend a tool like Demandbase.
I'm not sure what other products our marketing team has evaluated or currently uses, but we are also using Drift for insight into website activity and live chats. They're similar in that you can track engagement but I've found the reports are a little more finicky. They also …
They are different in many ways, but I like the Demandbase One platform best, because it gives us a better representation of what the ABM accounts are doing, by giving us a score representing the data of the last 30 days instead of real time.
I think it complements the service, not directly competing. Both are great prospecting tools that help improve overall productivity which results in eventual increase in sales and revenue. LinkedIn Sales Navigator is important during prospecting, in terms of the details of …
I have used Marketo much longer and know how to do a lot more in that platform so I prefer that more at the moment but am willing to grow in my knowledge/ use if I can understand more how to better utilize Demandbase and be more cost effective and efficient.
Truly, I have not used anything super similar to Demandbase One, which maybe is why I am so blown away by the services. I have not used a platform that truly shows who is interested and backs it up with reliable information. At my past B2B tech company, there was some sort of …
Demandbase One was more economical and feature-rich. The interface was also intuitive to use and all the key features were part of the core package like the journey builder, intents etc. So no hidden fees or long term contracts to get the essentials
I am not too sure why we chose Demandbase One over RollWorks. I believe it was the holistic offering that our team liked and how it worked well with our systems such as Salesforce/Pardot. In the end, I am happy with the selection and taking the learnings we have from the …
Demandbase had a higher account match rate for our known and unknown accounts. We also leverage in-platform advertising a lot for our targeted account approach and Demandbase has an exceptional platform for this use case. The most impactful difference was the relationship we …
I feel RollWorks as a platform was the easiest to use and navigate versus the others on this list given our maturing and requirements. Also, the RollWorks platform was the most cost-effective. Also, the team at RollWorks was the easiest to reach to set up a quick demo and in …
RollWorks is far superior when it comes to its ABM advertising platform. The user-friendliness of it and the hyper-advanced reporting for playbooks is fantastic. I think they have room to improve when it comes to lead scoring and intent data. Other platforms like Demandbase …
RollWorks is the most efficient platform for cost-conscious clients and is typically what we recommend for a company that is starting its ABM strategy. For more robust clients, that have the budget, we tend to recommend 6sense because of the intended functionality and the …
Having used both I would say that RollWorks is a good entry-level ABM tool, but it just hasn't caught up to Terminus yet. Expect some delays and hiccups - which I suppose is to be expected with a newer solution. Also, expect limitations on reporting and integration with SFDC vs …
From a technology standpoint, RollWorks has fewer bells and whistles than 6sense and Demandbase but it works well for an entry point for ABM. RollWorks also has a better engagement team than my experience with the other platforms.
All of these platforms are very helpful for running an account-based approach. For pure account-based advertising, I've found Rollworks is the easiest to get started with. Terminus and Demandbase are terrific as well. I'd say they offer more functionality, a bit more …
I was not involved in the selection process however I know other companies were evaluated (ex: Terminus). I think RollWorks was strictly chosen due to pricing over other features but it's just a guess at this point. That's all my knowledge into this area of the business …
RollWorks is better than the below because, AdRoll - this is highly tailored for B2C organizations and is not very useful for companies who are B2B and deal with a low volume of traffic 6th Sense: had very limited options and account-based landing pages were very expensive …
The major difference I have seen between Rollworks and competitors is that Rollworks seems to be a much less complex platform. While other tools focus on things like personalization, sales activation, and automation, Rollworks focuses on target accounts and advertising which …
With lots of great platforms out there, it will depend on what your organization's top goals are. For our company, we have had a big challenge with data. With RollWorks beating all other [competitors] when we tested match rates, it was a no-brainer for us to partner with …
RollWorks is head and shoulders above Terminus as far as to reach, engagement, usability, and customer experience - we ended our contract early with Terminus because the results were so poor. So RollWorks has been a breath of fresh air. We compared with 6Sense and Demandbase …
RollWorks is the Kia of cars for account based advertising platforms. It's cost effective but doesn't have all the bells and whistles you can get with a more robust solution like Triblio or 6sense.
I used AdRoll in a prior company - AdRoll is a sister company to NextRoll. I didn't look outside the AdRoll family when choosing a retargeting solution due to the positive quality and experience with AdRoll. We simply chose NextRoll because it was the product best suited for …
Demandbase One is well-suited for ABM Marketing, providing intent-based account details, account scoring methods, and understanding account intent. It also enables creating a list of accounts and individuals for retargeting based on specific filters. Easy to integrate with Salesforce, LinkedIn, Google Ads, and multiple other channels. Advertising through the Demandbase channel is more effective for advertisers who use retargeting with the intent list.
RollWorks is fantastic for businesses whose websites are the engine that drive their business. Got lots of great content you can redirect your leads to? Then a RollWorks campaign will do that perfectly. If your site isn't the engine that drives your business, or if you don't have a target lead the list with email addresses/domains, then RollWorks may not be the best product for you.
'Call Prep' - a list of industry-related questions to ask my prospects during the phone call to enhance trust and credibility as a business partner.
Regularly scrubbed email and phone numbers of prospects. The verified direct-dial mobile number is GOLD. You may be able to get some of these elsewhere by paying extra with a separate standalone service. Having this integrated has improved my workflow, saving time from switching in and out of different apps.
The family tree of organizations is particularly useful for targeting enterprise accounts that often come with convoluted company shareholding structures.
'Challenges' and 'Trends' - information to engage prospects during conversations.
It helps you intimately target users from your targeted accounts list on multiple advertising platforms in a highly effective way.
Their customer success and support team are always willing to go the extra mile to ensure your success.
The reporting capabilities of the platform. The ability to really dig deep into the micro-interactions from accounts and contacts across your targeted accounts list.
The price is a little high for the product provided.
Some features require a certain number of won opportunities or open opportunities to leverage, which could be difficult for a small/new business.
This product has fewer features than some competitors like it does not include attribution modeling for other pieces of the funnel or predictive models I have seen in other products.
Relatively inexpensive service for a decent current awareness service. They have added little in sales functionality in the past year as they focused on building a marketing version of the product. Except for the addition of broader European coverage last spring (thin Equifax records), the database was static over the past year.
Due to the fast impact of RollWorks in a short period of time across both marketing and sales. What is unusual about the RollWorks in our annual budgeting process is that there is no need to provide a business case for RollWorks' renewal. We see the value on a daily basis. RollWorks has provided clear insight up to the C level so there is no hard sell at the executive level. All stakeholders across the organization consider RollWorks to be a long-term, integral part of our marketing stack. We always are evaluating substitutes for current tech stack providers but feel that RollWorks is unmatched in its space
InsideView was extremely user-friendly. I was able to quickly understand how to efficiently use the software and get the most out of the service. I only had a short time to quickly learn how to use the functions offered by InsideView, and I felt confident within the first day of my understanding and ability to successfully use this tool.
RollWorks has the most intuitive interface of any tool in our multi-platform marketing stack. Any user who has worked with a CRM tool will find it much easier than say a HubSpot or Salesforce to set up and launch quickly. The adoption curve for maturing capabilities and usage is very short.
We have no issues with uptime or downtime with RollWorks. The application runs consistently. I don't recall a bug or outage issue in the year that we have been users of RollWorks. The true test is complaints from our user base - there have been none at all which is unusual for our marketing stack applications.
The RollWorks interface performs well. The load time has no noticeable friction. Reports are delivered quickly and easily. We integrate RollWorks with our Hubspot and Google Analytics platforms. There were a few tweaks to get those integrations working in sync but the RollWorks account team was there to help with anything our internal technical team couldn't solve.
We had an intro session with a customer success rep and were given a rundown of the platform and it was absolutely perfect. The rep was able to show us advanced search options and shortcuts that cut our search time.
Our CSM has been incredible, she is proactive when it comes to making account recommendations and makes an effort to stay up to date with the company and our campaigns and initiatives. Her reporting and analysis have been transparent and helpful and she is very engaged in the account insights. Love working with her!
We implemented RollWorks during the pandemic and across geographies. Therefore in-person training was not an option. We felt that we got the full impact of an in-person training experience from the RollWorks team, and that in-person training would actually have been less effective for us due to the expense and logistics. It is rare that we consider online training to be as effective as in-person so this is a credit to the RollWorks account team.
Implementation is trivial. This is a cloud based solution. it is easy to identify companies and execs for alerting.Users looking to use the connections tool must download from social media and Outlook. They then have to upload the files to the platform.While they support custom sales triggers, users must define the key terms which define the event. Users must then wait several hours for the system to build the alert.
RollWorks implementation couldn't have gone more smoothly. A key success factor is inclusion and early involvement of all those who will be working with RollWorks in any way to go through the set up and launch process. We thought through and brought the right players to the table to take full advantage of the RollWorks training direct from the team - rather than having to train others one off later
We selected Demandbase based on their premium B2B DSP, their integrations with third party ad sites and our CRM and tech stack. Their intent signals and ability to integrate the data we have in Demandbase to GCP through their DataStream product to build our own models and leverage in our own dashboards has been extremely beneficial
I feel RollWorks as a platform was the easiest to use and navigate versus the others on this list given our maturing and requirements. Also, the RollWorks platform was the most cost-effective. Also, the team at RollWorks was the easiest to reach to set up a quick demo and in their follow-ups.
RollWorks had various options that allowed us to choose the right one for our current situation. We felt that RollWorks gave us the flexibility to start at a certain level within our core marketing and sales teams and then easily add users as our functions are expanding. RollWorks offers upgraded levels of plans and add on features that we can foresee using in the future.
Demandbase has given us the visibility our sales and marketing team needs in order to see how their top strategic accounts are performing and what their engagement level is like with our brand.
Demandbase makes it easy for us to scale our efforts because it is an easy-to-use platform.
We are able to demonstrate ROI and show the impact our Demandbase campaigns are having on our target accounts.
Tough to say the exact impact, although RollWorks tries to help you show that. They include an ROI measure tied to your pipeline. But it's not really possible to say that because 1 person at an account MAY have seen our ad that it influenced a buy. It's a little hocus pocus here.
Our target audience is not very active in LinkedIn so we need to find ways to get in front of them outside of this business channel. Our thought/hope is that RollWorks is helping us do that.
