I prefer LinkedIn Sales Navigator for Gmail over 365 Data Science simply due to the ease of use and publishing of valuable data which is what I need. I've found that 365 Data Science is not as easy to use and has more complications/less user-friendly to use as a person who …

The integration to my inbox, together with LinkedIn's data is almost incomparable. Integration with Salesforce is so solid that Data.com does not offer an advantage being part of SFDC.

Kv Core and Konversion have a Smart CRM which rivals Sales Navigator. However, they do not reach out into the world...they are in my own sphere only. Sales Navigator helps me to discover other leads, not just service or keep them top of mind. The Business to Business …

Again, I was not the decision maker in this process. It seems that LinkedIn Navigator is the best, because of the bandwidth of people on LinkedIn that one can search from. Sometimes finding their information to get in touch with them can be difficult, which is why we …

I've never used other tools like Rapportive so would be difficult to comment on how it stacks up against other tools like it.
Chose LinkedIn Sales Navigator for Gmail
Rapportive took one piece of information and automatically searched it against the web. It is a one stop shop.
UpLead
Chose UpLead
UpLead costs a bit more, but I found the data on UpLead to be well worth it in comparison and it was easier to transfer to our CRM (HubSpot). I like how they also provide useful API integration into UpLead and I hope they begin to offer more automation in the future.
Chose UpLead
UpLead provides an easier user interface, a better overall experience, and a much better value versus its competitors. The leads don't bounce, they work every time, and I couldn't be happier or more pleased with the results that I've achieved as a salesperson using UpLead!! I …
Chose UpLead
Winmo is great but is very expensive. Apollo.io is not as user friendly and didn't provide the content in an easy manner. Also didn't have as many mobile numbers.
Chose UpLead
While ZoomInfo has a larger database and offers more of the technologies that we are interested in, UpLead has been a good supplement to ZoomInfo to find leads that we couldn't find in ZoomInfo.
Chose UpLead
UpLead has many similar solutions to ZoomInfo but not quite as extensive and expensive. I find sourcing contact info on UpLead more accurate with the email validation feature provided and if an email gets bounced, I am not charged.
Chose UpLead
I think ZoomInfo is a better lead generation tool. But I think UpLead is the better value for the money. I used ZoomInfo every day for 2 years so right now it's not a fair comparison. So it's possible that UpLead may catch up. I have not been using UpLead every day yet.
Chose UpLead
I like UpLead because it offers a better price point compared to other tools and verifies the potential lead's email by pinging it before I download my list. This ensures that the contact information is accurate and up-to-date, saving time and improving the efficiency of my …
Chose UpLead
As mentioned before, UpLead enables me to verify email addresses as well as browse through different employees of the same company, thus enabling me to pick and choose my correct target audience.
Chose UpLead
UpLead is beginner-friendly and much easy and comfortable for me to use and navigate all the icons.
Chose UpLead
These both software are the lead bases but both have differences, and UpLead is a better database than ZoomInfo. The major difference that I encountered while using ZoomInfo was that a lot of my emails bounced back. On the other hand, UpLead has real-time email verification. …

High-quality, targeted and verified lead generation was a challenge for us but UpLead has made this a very easy task with even better quality results than we anticipated. Uplead is very straightforward to use. It allows you to create a filtered view of leads based on the …
Chose UpLead
UpLead is ranked higher because I get genuine data 100% upgraded features filters are awesome in means of searching. Customer service is so friendly and cooperative that keeps me so cool and satisfied with my business workload that has been now being covered in a professional …
Chose UpLead
I wanted to discontinue uplead as I got better results from using crunchbase and Linkedin SalesNav.
Chose UpLead
I have used Crunchbase but UpLead is more authentic and reliable and also it gives better features than the previous one. This helps users to contact the right person to save time for the business. Making a list of companies, industries and location is a breeze with its layout.
Chose UpLead
We tried ZoomInfo before, but, this time, UpLead draws our full attention with its service.
Chose UpLead
Lusha and UpLead are very similar and trusted. But, we choose UpLead because it allows unlimited users in the professional plan.
Chose UpLead
I have used ZoomInfo in the past. While it gives out good information, it costs a fortune and is not as user friendly. I prefer UpLead all the way.
Chose UpLead
Uplead competes well, but Zoominfo lists cell phone numbers. However, Uplead is more affordable and offers almost every feature its competitors offer.

  • UpLead is the best lead database in terms of price per lead and provided the most accurate and valid emails.
  • It constantly updates their list and adding new people, companies and removes bad leads. However, you need to very careful when you are filtering and sorting data, and any wrong selection can cause tons of garbage leads/ emails.
  • It allows us to send the information directly to our CRM, saving me time and keeping us organized.
  • We especially appreciate the real-time email verification feature of UpLead.

Cons
  • Sometimes it tells me I need to log into my LinkedIn profile when I've already logged in. It's weird. It seems to be when the email address is not found. Instead of just saying the email is not found, it tells me I need to log in. Just something I've noticed.
  • Sometimes I get this weird thing where I go to compose an email and instead of having it open all the way to the right, it opens all the way to my left. I'm pretty sure Rapportive is what's causing it. It doesn't happen very often but sometimes I see that.

  • I would like to see an easier way to enter a contacts name to get immediate information
  • I would like to see more access to comparable competitors to the company I am searching
  • It would be great if UpLead would suggest targets based upon criteria I can load

Rapportive is simple and great at what it does. Plus I anticipate they'll probably add more features in the future.

LinkedIn Sales Navigator continues to be a key part of our marketing strategy. We use it to manage our lead pipeline, connect with new potential customers and manage our existing clients. We started using Sales Navigator because our sales reps weren't as connected as they should be on LinkedIn. The product allows our reps to be more connected, and we're finding more opportunities by being more connected.

These both software are the lead bases but both have differences, and UpLead is a better database than ZoomInfo. The major difference that I encountered while using ZoomInfo was that a lot of my emails bounced back. On the other hand, UpLead has real-time email verification. So, there was a high chance when using ZoomInfo that a large number of my emails were bounced back as the email ids were either fake or didn't even exist in the first place.
