Considered Both Products
DemandScience
Chose DemandScience
Demand Science was less expensive when quoting cost per lead than Tech Target. Other than that, the program sounded almost the same. I selected Demand Science because I was price sensitive while trying to test whether the tactic of content syndication was effective for us.
Chose DemandScience
Mainly in the flexibility of targeting
Chose DemandScience
Demandbase and Demandbase Advertising Cloud
Chose DemandScience
DS has a huge database and therefore lead count within the niche audiences and industries.
Many other lead partners are specialized in one industry. DS is capable of delivering in multiple industries, which is awesome if you target different target audiences as well. There is a …

TechTarget Lead Generation, Madison Logic Platform and Foundry
Chose DemandScience
Over the past year we've utilised a variety of content syndicators, approximately six or seven in total, as we believe in maintaining a diversified mix of suppliers to ensure comprehensive and well-rounded marketing efforts. While all these platforms have their individual …
Chose DemandScience
I've only used DemandScience for content syndication.
Chose DemandScience
I've not used another content syndication company, and I probably won't after the lack of results we've had. I have used direct email organizations, and they are stronger but also more expensive, so you have to weigh your priorities. I could see if you were selling a specific …
Chose DemandScience
Demand Science has the largest audience in our target groups, which is exactly what we need, as we always require high volumes of leads.
They are also very good when it comes to account management, we always feel that they are there for us, and if we ever have any issue, they …
Chose DemandScience
We have used other media vendors from the likes of Madison Logic, Inbox Insight etc.

However, it has been the direct feedback from the client, great customer service and competitive CPL rates that have influenced our choice.
Chose DemandScience
I would say it is similar to Madison Logic when it comes to the quality of leads and customer service. We are yet to see results coming from GumGum's contextual approach but from a content syndication perspective they are one of the more reliable ones out there, especially for …
Chose DemandScience
We have used Tech Target in the past which is much more expensive than Demand Science but lead quality is the same across both vendors
Chose DemandScience
Similar offering to other content syndication offerings. Of 12 tested partners in the last year, DS ranked 7th in Opportunity Rate and 4th on CPL rate.
Chose DemandScience
DemandScience is a good tool, but doesn't measure up to some other more tech-oriented content syndication players. Taboola is an excellent tool that has a very good user interface to set up the launch and monitor campaigns.
Chose DemandScience
DemandScience is easy to use.
Chose DemandScience
Demand Science's communication skills through email against the ones selected is great! when it comes to getting preview links to go live in the markets they are quick to generate these. As well as getting them amended as per our request, we never have any issues with this …
Chose DemandScience
All vendors have their strengths and weaknesses. Due to the scale of activity we do on behalf of our clients, we tend to always use a basket of vendors to deliver the lead volumes we require. DemandScience is always on the preferred partner list and will thus be considered for …
Chose DemandScience
Again, the main draw to DemandScience was primarily the Scale available across all markets we attempted to target and garner leads from.
Chose DemandScience
Madison Logic Platform, BrightTALK and TechTarget Lead Generation
Chose DemandScience
Good for quality appointment setting, poor against content syndication.
Chose DemandScience
DemandScience is on the more preferred half of vendors due to their negotiated CPLs and willingness to step up to the plate.
INFUSE
Chose INFUSE
I use multiple vendors in my bench and make sure I can manage several campaigns at once. INFUSE makes sure we have defined goals, objectives and ROI. Every time I bring a new project we are able to work together to create a strategic plan. We work together to review the results …
Chose INFUSE
INFUSE still has the ability to generate leads with a higher lead scoring compared to other vendors. Although pricing is a little steep, as long as budget allows, we will definitely go back to INFUSE for high quality leads instead of just quantity.
Chose INFUSE
Personally, I have only worked with Infuse for content syndication.
Chose INFUSE
INFUSE are much easier to work on in the briefing stage where other competitors often over complicate what should be a simple campaign.
Chose INFUSE
On par with INFUSE in terms of quality, both companies are pushing innovation and coming up with different products and services to better engage with prospects on behalf of clients.
Chose INFUSE
Many content syndication vendors operate in the same way, but I have seen a higher conversion rate on INFUSE leads from past campaigns.
Chose INFUSE
At the top of the list for quality, but somewhere in the middle on cost.
Chose INFUSE
INFUSE stacks up well - leads are always delivered on time and we dont get negative feedback from clients. Previews are always well written and when a breif is sent over its understood rather than a lot of questions and extra detail needed
Chose INFUSE
We are working with many content syndication and BANT lead gen companies. INFUSE is one of the top vendors we have seen some great success with. The targeting is all on point and accurate, the content and assets they help us create are all in line with our brand guidelines, and …
Chose INFUSE
From a price point perspective, INFUSE delivered on our campaigns and programs at a lower cost point, allowing us to run many more campaigns, which improved our metrics and corporate KPIs. Their attention to detail was paramount, even with running multiple campaigns, which were …
Chose INFUSE
I use Netline quite a bit, too, for lead generation. They are solid tool for promotion. However, I don't get as high of email opens and CTRs as I do with INFUSE.
Chose INFUSE
INFUSE mainly beat competitors with its ability to have quicker and more frequent responses. Their responsiveness wasn't just about speed, but also about the quality of communication. The INFUSE team took the time to understand our specific needs and goals, offering strategic …
Chose INFUSE
We have used other competitors, but the pricing and service at INFUSE are hard to beat!
Chose INFUSE
INFUSE has more program options compared to other vendors, in my experience (i.e., telemarketing and surveys). They will also customize the program based on your needs and budgets. They are pretty comparable cost wise to other vendors.
Chose INFUSE
INFUSE is better suited for ABM. The managed service also beats the user-interfaces of other platforms.
Chose INFUSE
There is a reason why SUSE has used INFUSE for multiple years now - other Lead Generation Companies do not compare.
Chose INFUSE
I've found INFUSEmedia to have more diverse and customizable versions of content syndication than other partners that we have considered and run with. Their pricing is competitive and the value adds they have provided for certain strategies have further helped them to stack up …

Likelihood to Recommend
DemandScience is great if you are looking for the ability to target very specific titles, roles, companies, etc., and receive high quality leads. They have an incredible scale compared to other partners my team has worked with, but their leads also perform very well down the funnel. This is not always the case because oftentimes, a partner will have room to scale well, but the leads are colder. I'm really impressed with how well DemandScience targets and also with how quickly they respond to me when I have any questions. Recently, my DemandScience rep reached out because he wanted to get our targeting more honed in on our ideal customer. He wanted to work with me to see down-funnel data (where possible and allowed) so that we could create a more targeted campaign. Other partners have never put this kind of time into our partnership.

From our first exchange they have been very responsive. They listen carefully to our needs and importantly they deliver against our requirements. They are agile, flexible and come to the table with new ideas. We at Siemens see them as a strategic partner at this stage and I hope we continue to work productively in to the future.

Read full review

Cons
  • Management and attention to detail - several items slip through the cracks.
  • Coordination between account management and invoicing has been sloppy.
  • Better intent data to match profiles.
  • Connecting the download to the actual sponsor - often heard, "We never downloaded XYZ."

  • I think providing a quarterly highlights document would be particularly helpful without asking. We ask every quarter and it creates a bit of a bottleneck for us.
  • Communication via email can get exhausting. Can we explore having a joint Slack channel for collaboration?

It works well for lead generation but renewal will depend on the strategy and budget at the point we need to renew to see if it will align.

Usability
The leads were pretty straight forward. However, their appointment setting did not integrate well into our system and many of the meetings didn't occur. I had to chase a lot of prospects and many times Demand Science didn't provide direct dials.

INFUSE was able to get our campaigns up and running, allowing us the ability to migrate qualified leads down to our sales team. INFUSE also went a step above, by providing call scripts and prescribed touchpoints along the qualifing journey, allowing our sales teams more time to schedule follow-up meetings and create opportunities that generated potential review.

Support Rating
The DemandScience Activate CSM team is always helpful and attentive to our organization's needs and goals. We receive thorough attention and detail from the team through regular touch bases and a standard reporting cadence. The team always asks where they can improve, and works to provide insights that matter to our organization and help us to try new things.

INFUSE has always been very responsive. I appreciate the check ins once campaigns are live, to discuss results and see where we could make adjustments. I haven't used their Demand Gen experts yet but I love that that's available to optimize your programs.

They did extremely well. However, our executives did a poor job in defining our ICP so we didn't get the maximum benefit out of it.

We are working with many content syndication and BANT lead gen companies. INFUSE is one of the top vendors we have seen some great success with. The targeting is all on point and accurate, the content and assets they help us create are all in line with our brand guidelines, and the lead quality is one of the best out of all of our vendors.

  • INFUSEmedia significantly increased our overall lead volume (ie able to produce 5000 leads/month when other channels were struggling to generate more then a few hundred) at far more efficient CPLs (Cost-Per-Lead)
  • Our clients have given positive feedback on lead quality and wrap reports that INFUSEmedia has provided to our team had provided further insight into the companies, job levels, etc. that our leads are tied to, further validating their quality and alignment with our desired targeting
