Apollo.io vs. ZoomInfo Engage

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.

As a whole, I really enjoy using Tellwise. From using it to track one-off emails to setting up entire Salesflows, it's a very simple tool that lets me focus on my job instead of trying to track down emails and activity. It's user-friendly and the support we get from the Tellwise team is amazing.

• 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.

• In my experience, super unreliable product... too many bugs for a knowledge worker
• In my opinion, overpriced. They are making money for its affiliation with sales os product.
• In my experience, filtering is messed up and buggy. No real support for Account based focus campaigns... Just good for basic calling, recording, and auto sync with CRM... everything else, sucks. Not reliable

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

I think the automated workflows and outstanding support are game-changers. I typically won't use a software platform that does not offer exceptional real-time support.

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.

It works very well with the tools and other Zoom Info products that we already use. The fact that it integrates is a huge win for us because we designed our CRM internally so we are very sued to working a certain way. We can use this to boost the information and tools from our pre-existing ZoomInfo products as well, so it brings out a lot of value.

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.

ZoomInfo Engage is by far in my opinion the most robust, well-known, and widely used tool in terms of sales and business pursuits and CRM use, specifically for acquisition. Even when we've inquired as to what other companies can offer they often can only lower the base price we would pay. ZoomInfo Engage provides the highest level of access to information and tools while maintaining reasonable costs.

• 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.

• We decided not to use Tellwise for the time being and will test it again in one year because what I saw so far is promising.
• We haven't seen any substantial ROI.
• If you need to track content shared with prospects and stakeholders, Tellwise may be exactly what you need.
