Breeze Intelligence for Hubspot vs. D&B Hoovers

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

D&B Hoovers is able to help immensely when doing a prospecting research regarding an industry or a company. I use it a few times a month. Once you get the hang of it, it's pretty easy to use. The lists and reports exported from D&B Hoovers are easy to integrate to your presentations and research.

• I appreciate its simple layout and its navigation which allows SDRs to find company-associated web pages.

• I use the visitor intelligence and it will tell me what office from a company has visited our site. I'll, in turn, go through D&B Hoovers to find the relevant contacts that we would benefit from speaking with at that company. I will call or email them, and it's just in a few months we've been using visitor intelligence has led to several ongoing conversations of companies who will become clients and it's an annual calculation to due. It's an ongoing relationship.

• Clearbit is like other products that I use and the biggest challenge I have is getting it to work with the programs I want to use. I would love to have all my programs flow through something like Clearbit without a lot of programming and API juggling. Not a Clearbit issue, however, it would be awesome to have a universal IO API that we can all plug into and make life simple.

• I'd prefer if the company size estimates were omitted when there is no data behind it to work off of
• I've never heard from an account rep
• Training resources? These could already exist but just connecting the dots to them for user would be helpful

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)

The D&B tool has really open up new opportunities for us and really helped the business. Additionally, on a personal level, the platform is very easy to use and I never had any problems with it. From there, I was also able to build some interesting analyses that helped me grow within the company and land me where I am today. I do not use it as much as I used to, but I know what I can do with this tool if needed.

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

D&B Hoovers is very user friendly. Its tabs provide are easy to understand for what topics you are looking to review while doing a company search. For example, site contacts is clearly all the contacts point at a particular location. So if you need to get contact information for xyz individual at a company its right at your fingertips.

The platform is generally reliable and accessible when needed, with minimal application errors or unplanned outages. There may be occasional maintenance or minor disruptions, but these are usually communicated in advance and handled efficiently. Overall, it offers a high level of availability, ensuring that you can count on it for your daily operations.

While the platform generally functions well, with pages loading in a reasonable time and reports completing within a satisfactory timeframe, there is room for improvement. Performance can sometimes lag with more complex queries or during peak usage times. Additionally, when integrated with other software or systems, there can be occasional slowdowns. Overall, while it performs adequately, optimizing speed and integration efficiency could enhance the user experience.

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.

I think it could be better, easier and faster. Whenever I chat with someone it takes so long to get to an actual agent, and then when I finally get to one, they oftentimes don't have the answers for me or do not understand what I am asking, which is very frustrating.

The training sessions were well-structured and covered the key functionalities of the platform, making it easy to get up to speed. The trainers were knowledgeable and responsive to questions, which added value to the learning experience. However, a bit more in-depth coverage of advanced features and use cases would have made the training even more beneficial.

for our use case, the implementation was minimal and we did not need a lot of help. The D&B Hoovers platform is pretty intuitive and our account manager was ready for any questions that came up when we use the D&B Hoovers platform

Clearbit is right up there with similar products. I find Clearbit useful in certain situations and specific industries. The user experience and integrations make it an easy tool to learn and use. In all this is a great tool, but I would like to see a broader range of data

We evaluated a few other tools including ZoomInfo, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, but D&B Hoovers emerged as the best overall fit for our hotel sales use case due to its depth of company data, broad industry coverage, and powerful geographic filtering capabilities. Our primary objective was to identify and contact businesses near our hotels that regularly need corporate lodging accommodations, operate project-based or travel-heavy industries, have the decision-making personnel we can reach directly.

D&B Hoovers is quite effective at adapting to the needs of different departments and locations, allowing for flexible deployment and integration across various parts of an organization. While it scales well and supports a broad range of users and functions, there might be some limitations depending on the size and complexity of the organization’s requirements. Overall, it provides a robust solution that can grow with your needs.4o mini

• 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.

• D&B Hoovers allows me to make the most of my time when searching for companies within specific industries. Once I find a company and examine their profile, I can then generate a list of employees in the purchasing and engineering departments. The profiles for each listed employee contain cell phone, Email address and LinkedIn profile. This information helps me to bypass the companies front desk and get directly to the people I need to speak with.
• By knowing the specific job title for the people that I am contacting and then being able to click on their LinkedIn link to learn a little about them before I make the call, I come across as a sales professional instead of an impersonal cold-caller.
• In cases where I do need to go through a front desk receptionist whose primary mission is to screen out sales people, I find that three out of four times the receptionist will connect me to the specific employee because I know their name, department, and job title. The Intel provided by D&B Hoovers makes it possible for me to get to the people I need to speak with.
