pharosIQ is a provider of first-party intent-driven lead and demand generation solutions, delivering insights and demand for B2B organizations’ sales and marketing success.
Cience is well suited for providing building blocks when you are starting with very little. They took the time to learn our unique product and weren't hesitant to jump on an account for a less than traditional ICP. If you are looking to outsource sales, just be prepared to be an active voice in the partnership.
pharosIQ delivered well on our TOFU ask with scaled lead delivery across 5 geographies. Having a single vendor POC helped to streamline communications across the global campaigns to ensure quality, quantity and fulfillment was continually fulfilled. We struggled with the mid-funnel program as the conversion forward was not very successful to sales ready leads. We also did not hit the benchmark of survey completions as originally proposed from pharosIQ from other customers who completed this campaign.

There isn't much to say here for me from a feature or functionality perspective. We've always had a very seamless interaction with CIENCE from a technology standpoint. I have to admit that I am typically the bottleneck if things ever get stuck because our team at CIENCE usually has to push me to get materials and documentation for our campaigns.
We once ran into a slight issue with the timing for our contract renewal. I needed to pause our service because of a large deal we acquired, and I needed to save some extra funds to ensure we could prepare for it properly. I was technically too late to put the pause in time based on the dates in our contract. However, the CIENCE team worked closely with me to come up with a creative solution that was understanding of my challenging situation at the time, while also favoring our long-term partnership rather than short-sighted revenue gains.

pharosIQ is easy to use and work with. Their team is great at communicating, very responsive, and will work closely with you to ensure the success of your programs. They act as a true partner, and tailor their services to your needs. I would certainly recommend working with pharosIQ to a friend

I am happy with the relationship and the attention we get from pharosIQ throughout our interactions, maintaining this is key to getting the best possible leads for our clients, Yasmin and Colin have always been very clear in what they can and cannot do which I fully appreciate. The reporting is always on a weekly basis and more if requested, and communication is key in our industry. I am wholly satisfied to continue the working relationship, and I thank the MRP team for their Support.

The process outlined was exactly what we were looking for (hand holding before, during and ongoing) and was right on in terms of what we needed for implementation. We were successful in identifying the team from CIENCE who would be dedicated to Manifest and were able to have all levels of both companies involved in the implementation process.
We chose CIENCE because we were impressed with the technology it was built on for lead-generation, the quality of leads proposed to us, the targeting capabilities, and campaign execution strategies. Nobody has been better suited to our service capabilities modeling and needs of the organization.
pharosIQ wins in the customer service department. I will say, Anteriad tends to deliver more accurate leads that fit within our ICP. We are also considering running other programs with Anteriad. So, similarly, pharosIQ is also pivoting our strategy to help us meet our goals. I think both are comparable products and/or companies.

Terrible waste of money. Just starting out we want to use our funds the most effective we can. This had ZERO ROI and was a waste of time.
They ask for a three-month upfront payment and gave us nothing back. While this is the risk we take with no guarantees, you would expect a reputable business to offer something for a performance so poor. A free month to try and make things right by providing a few leads, or some small amount of refund, something. Their response was to tell us they did nothing wrong and they would not even consider anything.
The good reviews from this company are baffling to me. I reviewed them before starting and felt they must be reputable. The truth is the onboarding process took 30 days even though we provided them with everything before it started. They charge for this ramp-up time even though nothing of substance is happening.
Within two weeks of the campaign starting our Cience team had lost over half of its original members due to attrition. 3 out of 5 of their members left the company
