Considered Both Products
Demandbase One
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.
Chose Demandbase One
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 …
Chose Demandbase One
I like Demandbase better then Bullhorn. Demandbase is alot more user friendly.
Chose Demandbase One
Similar but I find the email digests more useful.
The chrome extensions stack up fairly evenly against each other.
Chose Demandbase One
I would use both as sometimes Lusha provides more phonenumbers
Chose Demandbase One
I haven't work with any other ABM product
Chose Demandbase One
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.
Chose Demandbase One
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 …
Chose Demandbase One
Demandbase One is much more of a true ABM tool. Apollo is more helpful in finding customer data and contact information.
Chose Demandbase One
I'm not sure about current feature set, but will reevaluate in October. It seemed more algorithmic than the Demandbase One set-up process.
Chose Demandbase One
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.
Chose Demandbase One
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 …
Chose Demandbase One
I believe we also use ABM, but not sure. I do not evaluate the tools, I just use them
Chose Demandbase One
We actually use in tandem. Except zoom info, which Demandbase One replaced. Seems more accurate w intent but we doesn’t have contact data built in
Chose Demandbase One
We actually use both as, in our opinion, Zoominfo is better at the individual level and Demandbase One is better at the account level.
Chose Demandbase One
Integrated DSP was a huge selling point. Also, Demandbase One can use our ad tags simply and easily and this makes a huge difference.
Chose Demandbase One
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
Chose Demandbase One
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 …
Chose Demandbase One
Back then it had an attribution module, but it was sunset
Chose Demandbase One
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 …
Chose Demandbase One
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 …
Chose Demandbase One
I wasn't part of the decision-making back then so I wasn't examining competitors or similar services.
Chose Demandbase One
I prefer Demandbase due to its superior data quality, integrations, personalization, sales enablement, and customer support.
Influ2
Chose Influ2
Great for creative ad management, as their high-quality creative studio helps you match the most effective creative assets with campaign KPIs on a platform-by-platform basis.
Chose Influ2
When talking about specifically ABM INFLU2 ranks on first for me as it is easy to use and setup in accordance with other software. Also the leads generated are quality leads. Each campaign can be personalized and reports of each campaign give a detailed idea of how the campaign …

Likelihood to Recommend
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.

We’ve seen a huge engagement boost in our person-based campaigns, compared to traditional ABM campaigns.

Pros
  • '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.

Cons
  • Under the "highlighted" section there are only 6 accounts to see. It would be nice to have more than 6.
  • The engagement is rated in "minutes" while that's not really what is being scored. It's a little confusing as to how their engagement is scored.
  • It would be nice to be able to mute or hide of some contacts that we have already spoken to so that it opens space for other prospects.
  • Overall happy with the product

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.

Usability
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.

Implementation Rating
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.
