Clay vs. Breeze Intelligence for Hubspot

Sales automation is the most suited use case of Clay. You could generate GTM motions that are auto triggered by the signals, so you could actually create workflows that are triggered on specific signals. For example, a company gets new funding, you can reach out to the company within in a matter of minutes and you can track a lot of news that's happening on Google or using RSS feeds. You can patch that news into Clay and then manipulate that and get insights out of it. The second best use case is the data enrichment or data cleanup. Usually companies have CRMs with messy data. You can import that. Clay has native integrations with Salesforce, HubSpot, Pipedrive, Marketo, and you can import those lists into Clay and then clean the data, enrich the data, and then push that forward, update the data in the CRMs. That's the second best use case that I use it for and would recommend it for.

Clearbit is great for companies with large sales teams who focus on high touch prospecting. The time saved by not having to search a prospect's LinkedIn profile, but simply see data in the CRM is awesome. On the other hand, Clearbit may not be as ideal in a company where sales are very transactional

• Pros, I think there are a lot of pros, so I mentioned a couple of them already, so being able to use different data providers. I think being able to massage the data, I call it a data orchestration where I can get different points of inputs of data. I can throw everything in Clay and then I can make all the changes before I use them for campaigns, for email, for LinkedIn, for whatever reason I'm going to use my data, but it's really easy to enrich, it's really easy to do research. It's really easy to build agents that tie to each row in your dataset, like there are a lot of things that you could use it for that are huge pros.

• The phone numbers are extremely accurate, so our sales team isn't wasting time calling 800 numbers or being transferred.
• ClearBit mapping is great because there are 80 fields that map and an API.
• We can build out our leads and contacts extremely faster because of the simplicity of the program.

• A max column limit. I run into the column limit all the time and kind of have to figure out using multiple tables. Just bugs really. I mean if you start getting too crazy on it, I feel like takes a long time. You can't really identify that it's working or if it's not. So that kind of slows things down a little bit.

• The data Clearbit provides is good, but it doesn't compare to some competitors. While you can find a large range of data, other providers have more clean data.
• The Google Sheets add-on is not as comprehensive. It would be nice if you could search for both prospect emails and numbers there.
• Clearbit provides direct dials, but again it's not as accurate as other services.

The majority of the time it provides quick, accessible and easy to use information about the company and contact information. This has really helped us to personalise our outreach while also making it faster to prospect accounts. I don't give it a ten as this information can be inaccurate. Including the LinkedIn link which sometimes re-directs to old LinkedIn accounts, or just the wrong one. This seems to be caused by not updating the information regularly enough (just a feeling, no evidence)

I think it's actually before the launches today, I would say eight, but after they launch, what's the name of the product? I dunno if it was the web intent or the sculpture. 10, because I think that the sculpture was the missing part of plates till now.

Clearbit is very easy to use. Any new joiner can self-onboard, self-learn in matter of hours, if not minutes. Its integration feature within Hubspot and also with Salesforce makes it easy for marketing team to use it every day. The customer support team is also very responsive and helpful to resolve issues within few days

The team has been extremely helpful and works with us one on one with issues we come across. My main issues with the service is it’s outward interactions with us since purchasing the product. They have not proactively checked in to see how our is doing with the product.

Honestly, not really any alternatives. I would find it really difficult to think of an alternative because if you have the right pick, basically the cost of switching for me is just too much to look further. So I'm really happy with what I'm getting for my money basically. I haven't really tried any alternatives. I wouldn't even know any alternatives to be honest.

When evaluating data enrichment solutions, we compared Clearbit against alternatives like ZoomInfo, InsideView, and D&B Hoovers. Clearbit emerged as our preferred choice for several key reasons:
- Superior API flexibility and integration capabilities, particularly with our existing tech stack - More competitive pricing model compared to enterprise solutions like ZoomInfo
- Higher data accuracy rates, especially for technology companies and digital-first businesses - Better developer documentation and support resources

While competitors like ZoomInfo might offer broader coverage for certain industries, Clearbit's focus on digital-first companies and B2B technology firms aligned perfectly with our target market. The platform's ability to provide real-time enrichment through API calls, combined with its straightforward implementation process, made it the most suitable choice for our specific use case.

• It's provided some key data in terms of geography which we rely on to distribute our customers and prospects to territories.
• Works great for large repositories of data, which we have.
• Not as useful for proactive prospecting. We use it primarily for data enrichment and confirmation of demographic info.
