Lead Forensics
Chose Lead Forensics
This was a customer decision (we are a marketing agency), but Lead Forensics stacks up well against the competitors. As an agency, we like more data, but for what the sales team needed in Lead analysis from the website, this is a powerful tool.
Chose Lead Forensics
the personal support is great. Jaleesa is really sharp
Chose Lead Forensics
I’ve used SalesIntel primarily for contact data, but I haven’t explored its web tracking features. What sets Lead Forensics apart is how quickly it delivers actionable insights from site visits. It helps me identify engaged accounts and prioritize follow-up without extra …
Chose Lead Forensics
We do not have many like this. Salesintel is also very different, but I say I get more sales from Lead Forensics.
Chose Lead Forensics
I personally use sales intel in tandem with Lead Forensics. They provide different set of data. Lead Forensics is a great tool for helping open up to new markets that you might not have realized existed. It’s an excellent tool for anyone in any facet of sales, worth the money …
Chose Lead Forensics
Lead Forensics offers a simpler user journey and is very cost-effective! Additionally, the customer service I've received has been phenomenal. Our Customer Success Manager schedules monthly check-ins to ensure we get the most out of the platform and helps us address any issues …
Chose Lead Forensics
Lead Forensics was the only platform we evaluated that offered the ability to search for contacts by specific departments—a key factor in our decision to move forward with it.
Chose Lead Forensics
Lead Forensics is definitely more economical for a team and provides a lot more information on companies while also still providing the insights on contacts working for the company.

I have never used anything similar to LF.
Chose Lead Forensics
It is more expensive but in my experience you get what you pay for - the quality of data in others has not compared.
Chose Lead Forensics
Back in 2013, we used to run Marketo and a big appeal of it was its IP inference ability. In my opinion, Lead Forensics is a more "complete" product, love the ability that I can drop it in multiple websites and not having an increase in cost, love the granularity of the reports …
Chose Lead Forensics
I had previous experience of the product so the selection process was more about integration with our new CRM and the ability to be able to set up quickly and the onboarding team were fantastic
Chose Lead Forensics
Lead Forensics data was more accurate and in-depth. I pay more for it but get a larger volume of leads. I also find the contacts to be better too. I did a test between the two and the accountant manager was less salesy and helped me learn the product and its benefits.
Chose Lead Forensics
LF consistently identifies more companies than any tool we have used. We run comparisons about twice a year just to see if there is a better tool, haven't found one in 7 years.
Chose Lead Forensics
Lead Forensics offers more detailed insights to the customers or potential customers. It also notifies me of website traffic; we don't have another tool that is better then Lead Forensics. I do like Zoom--it has a lot more contact info and allows you to filter the results to …
Chose Lead Forensics
Lead Forensics is a leader on its side, but the other platforms can do more tracking and give you more details about the visits and can target to an exact person. They are all great tools and each one has its [own] special ability to help you close more deals.
Chose Lead Forensics
Previously, we used HubSpot and Pardot, neither of which had the depth of data matching needed to report relevant visits in our B2B environment.

lemlist has elite UX/UI, better deliverability, and the best customer support when compared to the competition
Chose lemlist
Lemlist stacks up well against other cold email tools, even though most share the same features now. However, the integration of LinkedIn in Lemlist's feature set gives the tool an edge as it differentiates itself as a tool to build relationships with prospects (rather than …

When you have people coming to your website and you want to know which pages they look at, how long they are there, and when they leave. Also when you want to know their industry, their company, and what led them to your website. You can really get a customer profile.

If you're looking to ramp up cold outreach efforts in record timing, lemlist is the best cold outreach software to do so. The UX/UI is hands down the best in this vertical. Our sales team had a immense onboarding timeline for Apollo, not to mention long-wait-time for customer support with Apollo, and it was a breath of fresh air to move to lemlist. There is no all-in-solution for cold email outreach, but lemlist is adding features every year that they're the closest all in one tool on the market.

Pros
  • Lead Forensics helps us see which companies are visiting our site, even if they don’t fill out a form. This gives us a chance to reach out to businesses that are already showing interest but might not have contacted us yet.
  • Instead of cold-calling random prospects, we can see which pages a company has viewed and how often they return. This helps us tailor our conversations based on what they’re actually interested in.
  • The Lead Forensics support team has been great whenever we’ve had questions. They’re quick to respond and always ready to help, whether it’s troubleshooting an issue or offering advice on how to get the most out of the platform.

Cons
  • Better updates on companies' current names. Often if a company was a different company years ago it still says the old company name which is confusing.
  • Better identifying the correct location. Sometimes it seems like that the location coming up is the wrong location.
  • Giving a better understanding of how they got to the website would help too. Often is says "direct" but I would like to know if it was via a link from an email or what

There are a lot of cold email solutions on the market, and Lemlist is one of the more expensive solutions. However, Lemlist is a strong contender due to the fact you can do mulri-channel and gather prospect data so easily and effectively

Usability
Lead Forensics dashboard is fantastic. Lets me see what companies are hitting what parts of the website so I know what to offer them. Often times I’ll offer one thing, only to get told no. Then the client goes to the website and pokes around at other things we offer. Then they reach out to me asking about different services, or next time I reach out I can offer what they were looking at.

The user interface is super, super intuitive compared to the competition, especially Apollo. Plus, even if you run into a roadblock, lemlist's customer support is super responsive, and you don't have to pay more money to make them more responsive, it's part of their mission to help you become the best at using their tool for successful cold email campaigns. It's a terrific experience.

[Their] support is great, [whether] you call or send in an email. They are always friendly and willing to help. Anytime I can’t figure something out and need to reach out, I always get a response back quick[ly] - and they will always offer to go in and make the change, but I like when they show me so I can do it next time.

Return on Investment
  • We are still in the very early stages of using Lead Forensics for our agency, but I can see that it could already be very useful to us as we haven't had insights like this previously.
  • Our very first use case with Lead Forensics was with a brand-new client and I would say it went exceptionally well. We were running a large media campaign for them, and it was very insightful to see how those specific businesses were getting to the site and what page they were going to. Like mentioned previously, this helped their very small sales team to go after businesses they know were interested in them.
