ZoomInfo Operations vs. Vainu

The contact enrichment feature adds missing contact info, like emails or phone numbers. It also allows us to confirm that the address information on our CRM matches what Zoom says. I wish more emails were available within the service, but what you can glean from Zoom makes marketing to the correct personas much easier.

Vainu is the best software I have ever used for prospecting. It offers everything that we need for sale, prospecting and leads, and indeed really cost-effective. It's really a small investment when comparing what it can bring to your business. Vainu is not indispensable If you don't have an active selling team and continuous need for new prospects.

• EverString allows us to build account lists based off in-depth firmographic or technographic data. It's far more accurate than trying to build these lists any other way.
• EverString is fast. Where it might've previously taken us weeks to build lists of this quality, we now can build them in a matter of minutes (and have them ready to be published in a couple of hours).

• You save time and find right prospects as fast as possible.
• It's also easy to sort prospects by industry, revenue, digital foot print... etc.

• Contacts underneath Companies can be outdated by 4+ years (left employer years prior).
• Customer support is not as engaged as a smaller software company might be. Delays in solving issues.
• Limits in sharing lists, queries, and tags between users under the same account.

• Vainu has fixed all bugs we have reported. So no, can't really say what I dislike...

Would love to keep everstring as part of our tech stack in the future. if we ever have to move from everstring it will be due to budget not the solution itself.

Usability is among the highest I have ever worked within an application of this magnitude. It was a significant recession for us and our sales team along with some of our onboarding folks have been able to use the tool as well. Other are able to benefit as well that are outside of the sales team but I do get as much of their feedback as I do from the sales team.

Have a plan on how you're going to evaluate. We had a two-month trial period, but a six-month average lead cycle time, making it impossible to evaluate on a purely new-business ROI basis within the trial. We applied the model to our prior data, which demonstrated how much time and effort was devoted to accounts that weren't going to close

I haven't tried stacking it against any competition as I feel no need to. ZoomInfo blows me away like it first did in 2018, and I don't want something different. I hear Clay is good, but I just haven't felt the need to try it out or replace ZoomInfo at all.

Vainu contacted me 15 months ago. I had been looking for a good prospecting tool a long time before that. There wasn't any reason not to take the test! The introduction went well. We got guidance many times. Our new sales team members can still receive training from them if we want. They have been interested in our feedback.

Hasn’t experienced any issues to doubt reliability
