Considered Both Products
Lead411
Chose Lead411
We've also used RocketReach. All of the others we have tried appear to only provide information that I can easily get from my own Linkedin account, making them a waste of our time & money. We have always come back to Lead411. The breadth & depth of information they provide is …
Chose Lead411
Lead411, provided us more bang for our dollar. Comprehensive information at a good price; after careful comparison, we chose Lead411 because of its value. But it's not a poor man's platform, it's very robust and provides excellent search capabilities too.
Chose Lead411
Data.com - out of business. NetProspex - sold to Dunn and Bradstreet. Lead411 is the least expensive of all legitimate data providers.
Chose Lead411
I do not have experience with other companies. I chose [Lead411] for their generous offer of 50 emails
Chose Lead411
The database they have is much bigger than some other companies I have worked with. Their pricing is also good and is budget-friendly and working on the advanced search function is quite intuitive.
Chose Lead411
We had never used a service such as this and for the price and tools available, it made the most sense for us.
Chose Lead411
The other products we evaluated either had less data or were far more costly. Lead411 has been a good value for us.
Chose Lead411
Zoominfo is too expensive and Uplead has a terrible trial period and I could not accurately test it before purchase
Chose Lead411
All other tools are max capturing information from a website or other sources. Mostly they are landing into toll-free numbers or customer support. We people in our organization looking for board numbers which direct to decision-maker easily.This tool resolves the issue for us. …
Chose Lead411
So far, in my short month using this program, I have managed to land business with two companies! The pricing helps.
Chose Lead411
Lead411 is nice because we have control over the searches.
Chose Lead411
So far it has been the most consistently reliable services we have used for this purpose
Chose Lead411
I have had more success with Lead411 during a trial period compared to their competitors in terms of reaching the targeted prospect by email.
Chose Lead411
Zoominfo certainly is class when it comes to its capabilities. That said, if you're in a heavy outbound role and you just want to get down to the nitty gritty Lead411 is a cost effective measure to get you the information you need to be as successful as you can possibly be.
Chose Lead411
False or wrong information. Lusha gave me someone's phone number, very embarrassing calling the wrong number. Lusha gave me wrong telephone numbers right off the bat. Some are tied to only LinkedIn and no search feature. UpLead hard to learn and wrong email addresses or company …
Chose Lead411
There are a ton of competitors. Since I've been using them for so long I believe their pricing packages may have changed. However, I found that for the price and functionality they are far and away the biggest bang for your buck. Honestly they are sort of my secret weapon.
Chose Lead411
I've used a number of competing B2B tools and contact/data providers. The contact data from Lead411 has proven to be very helpful with specific campaigns. I'm especially appreciative of the Trigger-Based Sales Intelligence...and look to utilize this MORE!
Chose Lead411
They are great as a backup provider.....we use ZoomInfo as the main provider and are evaluating DiscoverOrg when renewal is up.
Chose Lead411
Lead411 has a better interface. Their database is all cloud-based which meant accessing it from anywhere. Lead411 also provided access to more candidates and sales leads in our opinion.
Chose Lead411
Discover.org was a product I used often at another company but is useless in my new company and industry. They are very limited and industry specific which is a shame considering they offer a good product. Insideview is a comparable product but again we could not find enough …
LeadIQ
Chose LeadIQ
They're all pretty comparable. The only major differences would be the data pool. Apollo seems to have a more up to date and more data pool. Everything else is pretty similar.
Chose LeadIQ
I think that LeadIQ is overall better. I think so because i can use LeadIQ for more things than zoominfo. For example, the scribe feature and importing leads directly from sales navigation. That, I think, is one of the best features. Tho, i feel like zoominfo sometimes had more …
Chose LeadIQ
None of these products are great in relation to accurate data. SignalHire was surprisingly better but only just. Lusha is grossly overpriced and ZoomInfo are purely out to make as much off unsuspecting customers as they can - originally pitched $15000 and when we refused the …
Chose LeadIQ
ZoomInfo, LinkedIn Sales Navigator and Lusha Extension
Chose LeadIQ
Have not evaluated other tools similar to LeadIQ outside of the standard Salesforce lead object and Outlook
Plugin.
Chose LeadIQ
LeadIQ has more accurate contact information that is real and up to date. ZoomInfo's extension is very buggy and sometimes requires me to restart my extension and browser Better customer service with LeadIQ.
Chose LeadIQ
The user experience and design of the platform + the data health were far superior to uplead and the other tools I demoed. I was also impressed by the pricing structure and the ability for me to pick and choose my plan or customize based on the sales team numbers and team …
Chose LeadIQ
SellHack and LeadIQ are very similar products, with some subtle differences. As mentioned, our team no longer uses LeadIQ, but rather a combination of SellHack and ZoomInfo. I will say that LeadIQ is a "hybrid" of these two tools, but I would still take ZoomInfo over LeadIQ …
Chose LeadIQ
LeadIQ is great because it's a really lightweight and easy-to-use solution. It's fast and has a good amount of contact information.

ZoomInfo is more robust, which means it has more information--both contact info and other relevant info like news, revenue info, etc. Having said …
Chose LeadIQ
I have also used ZoomInfo. ZoomInfo is a great tool. I wish it had the quick workflow that LeadIQ naturally has. There is no easy way to import a list into your sales enablement platform with ZoomInfo. However, the data that ZoomInfo has is often very accurate and is well …
Chose LeadIQ
I have not used other similar products.
Chose LeadIQ
LeadIQ gives you the best bang for your buck and ROI.
Chose LeadIQ
I prefer LeadIQ because of the way it interacts with LinkedIn. That is really great. However, the accuracy of the data falls short of ZoomInfo. Our team uses both, consistently, and between the two we have a sound arsenal at our fingertips to reach out and contact the people …
Chose LeadIQ
We use Winmo and it is great but LeadIQ allows us to supplement those lists. It is especially useful if someone has recently changed jobs to be able to target them before they are added to the larger databases. It's more of a 1:1 prospecting tool as opposed to a mass list.
Chose LeadIQ
The other solutions are too expensive and their data isn't as accurate. Also, the tool isn't as easy to use in comparison to LeadIQ.
Chose LeadIQ
When it comes to data accuracy, LeadIQ has an upper hand. Also, the user interface is more user-friendly. They have a pop-up bar on the side of the screen instead of having to go to another page to use it. Also, it integrates with Gmail pretty well.
Chose LeadIQ
LeadIQ is much more feature-rich than alternatives. The fact that you can capture to existing accounts as contacts are huge and saves a great deal of time. The Chrome Extension is much less intrusive than Lead411's. I still use Lead411 pretty regularly though. I find myself …
Chose LeadIQ
Hunter's interface and even the download is difficult to navigate, so I never used it when given the opportunity.
Chose LeadIQ
Choosing a data provider is likely quite different in every industry. Where some excel, I'm sure others fall short. I have found that the quality of the data is great and the interface to collect it is foolproof. The integrations to systems like SalesForce and SalesLoft are …
Chose LeadIQ
They do very similar things. I would say that whichever tool you are using, you are going to be getting a very similar user experience. The integrations with other platforms is similar in some sense. LeadIQ is a more cost-effective option than ZoomInfo. Sometimes ZoomInfo …
Chose LeadIQ
There are companies that specialize in many things in this vertical, but I feel like the quality of data that we have experienced with LeadIQ is on par, if not better, than the other companies that we looked at. Our reps don't get bogged down with a lot of metadata as well, …

[Lead411 is well suited for] lead generation where the phone numbers are verified and the email addresses are verified, I find them to have a high rate of accuracy. The ability to filter to the verified information is very user friendly. I do wish the number of verified emails and phone numbers were higher.

  1. Outbound Demand Generation: Self Sourcing leads for prospecting can be a challenge for any outbound team. It was even for us, and when we were doing it manually through LinkedIn and finding emails through email hunter extension. The task was cumbersome and time-taking, and painful. Having something like LeadIQ was magical for the Outbound team when it came to self-sourcing our own contacts and accounts, from our TAM.
  2. TAT for Prospecting decreases: Since sourcing of leads and accounts becomes much more efficient. Reps spend more time on the ground and phone and less time on the CRM. This was again a challenge for us in the past, but we have capitalized on LeadIQ and made our "spending time on the ground" metric much better.

Pros
  • Most importantly --- The DATA is accurate and the platform is straight-forward and simple to use. The native connection to our CRM environment "completes the requirement" from our standpoint. A "10 out of 10"...
  • From my experiences and interactions, the culture of the organization is exceptionally focused on customer satisfaction! We've been more than pleased with EVERY SINGLE interaction with Lead411....they go out of their way to be of assistance. A "10 out of 10"...

  • Once set up, it's super easy. Just click a button and capture the lead.
  • Love that you can capture as a contact instead of a lead and that it will attach to an existing account in Salesforce based on a fuzzy match with Company Name.
  • Love that you can capture data from a lead search list in Sales Navigator, not just from the person's profile page. So you can capture multiple people at a time.
  • I really like that I can see all the related objects that a given contact might have in SFDC. Lead and/or contact records (even with a company mismatch if it's an old record), accounts, and opportunities.

Cons
  • I do get a few emails that HubSpot says "bounced globally" which means I wasted an export. I think it's under 5%, so it's not a major issue.
  • The UI is adequate, but not fun to use. Others with better UIs had less or less accurate data though.
Read full review
  • Rocky start to using it - but good follow up with customer service.
  • It can create duplicates in salesforce sometimes which is a headache for some departments who require salesforce to be our pure data source.
  • Sometimes the numbers aren't correct for the right individual - it gets numbers from wrong people with the same name - this has only happened a couple of times, very rare.

We have been very happy with LeadIQ for the past several years. They have quality data at a fair price and that is the most important thing for us. Their product continues to grow and expand and they are great to work with from a customer experience point of view.

Usability
I would rate Lead411’s overall usability a 9 out of 10. The platform is intuitive, easy to navigate, and provides quick access to accurate data. Features like advanced search filters and integrations make it seamless for sales teams. Minor improvements could be made in global data coverage, but overall, it’s highly efficient and user-friendly.

the data pool of contacts and lead info could be better compared to the other software competitors. The software is still quite easy to use and it has an extension which makes it easy to work side by side with either linkedin or salesforce. One item that doesn't work well which the rep showed us was pulling up the account page on salesforce and LeadIQ being able to pull up the company details based on the domain. That isn't working for us. Perhaps it's the industry we're in.

I have yet to contact LeadIQ regarding support for the tool. Usability is pretty straight forward, and I was trained well to use the tool properly. I am giving the rating of a five since I can not say I have had contact with the support team.

Return on Investment
  • The majority of my closed business since my subscription began about a year ago has come from intelligence and contact information from Lead411, a figure that many times exceeds the cost of the subscription. Fantastic investment.
  • Using Lead411 is like having my own inside sales rep conducting company research, finding out relevant contact information, compiling sales triggers in specific vertical markets, and much more. Frees me up to sit on appointments and sell.
  • Lead411 does the grunt work for you, giving you back countless hours in your sales month for actual selling and moving deals through the sales process, significantly speeding up my sales processes from initial appointment to closed business. My typical sales cycle before Lead411, from initial contact to signed contract in hand, was 8-10 weeks. Since using Lead411, it's now 4-6. Yes, that big a difference.

  • Return on investment has been positive in terms of filling the sales pipeline with prospecting data
  • It is not a good long term strategy to rely on the tool for prospecting and we need to have more intent driven outreaches
  • The platform can get pricey
