Apollo.io vs. Awaken Intelligence

The automatic email feature is extremely helpful for quickly contacting more potential clients. It is user-friendly and easy to access all buttons, which helps you navigate the task efficiently. It could greatly help to acquire more clients for a project to be successful. I cannot see anything less appropriate for me to achieve the goal I am aiming for.

With a diverse or complex use of calls to guide or promote our product to end user, the need to share best practices / promote them, and to guide the agent towards the conversation (stress-free) is important. That's where Awaken Intelligence can help most. Cost-effectiveness of this solution may come into question with businesses that outsource or simplify too much their customer center roles

• Consolidates tool and packs in a lot of functionality
• Keeps up with the industry trends for prospecting and data enrichment
• Offers the basics you need to get going
• Account mapping to Salesforce - reps can prospect in Apollo and can easily toggle on views to only see their own accounts.

• I thought the AI email-generating function was weak. The email sounded way too robotic.
• I wish there were a split-screen option that allowed me to view my lists and leads simultaneously.
• I wish putting contacts into lists wouldn't cost any credits.

Generally quite a reliable tool with decent data quality/availability. Pricing works well for our team and our use case

Apollo.io has an amazing amount of features. It's great being able to complete so many tasks in one space but it's also overwhelming. It took me a few days to work through all of the options when searching for a company or person. After a few days it started to provide companies for me which was confusing before I understood what was happening. At first, I was also confused about what a "sequence" was so maybe some of the jargon can be confusing. I think with time I will become more comfortable once I understand all of the options offered.

The team wants to solve probelms, but we are finding that they don't know how to solve the more technical issues quickly. I suspect that they don't have a mature process for escalations, and they don't have a usable knowledge base article repository. They seems to push emails around to let us know that people are working on the issues to find solutions, but this takes weeks and oftentimes still leaves us without a resolution.

Apollo.io has all features of prospecting, outreach automation including email sequences, campaign tracking, lead scoring, and analytics in one interface which enables sales persons to manage their entire sales funnel without having any other extra tool. Another benefit is for pricing related which has been understand from our management team.

• Increased # of booked meetings from outbound email outreach.
• Our sales team's productivity has improved when prospecting/doing outreach (which has a monetary value, given our salaried status). This makes us more productive, enabling us to accomplish more and reach a greater number of people in a day.
• We've only recently implemented this, so we're still waiting to close, but leads are on their way to doing so.
