DataFox (discontinued) vs. LeadFuze

I would definitely recommend DataFox to any sales team that wants their prospecting to be improved. If a company has trouble finding companies that fit their customer segments, then DataFox can probably solve that issue. I took 2 points off and gave an 8/10 because of the inaccuracy that is sometimes encountered in the lists generated and in the employee count.

LeadFuze is great for B2B companies that need an all-in-one lead generation outreach program. This software allows even novices to curate targeted lists and run outreach programs at scale. It is well suited for small or large teams and both the marketing and sales team can benefit from the program. It is also a useful tool for HR, where you can curate lists of qualified candidates and reach out to them proactively.

• Initial sync with CRM is relatively effortless

• LeadFuze is easy to use. Like any software it takes a little getting used to.....but the product works and it is providing leads to help grow our business.
• Support is quick and helpful. I even had the owner on chat with me a few times. You are going to get stuck once in a while. The LeadFuze support team with get you out of trouble and back making money.
• There are a lot of good leads available. And more are added on a regular basis. Can't ask for more than that.
• Cost is reasonable, especially when compared to PPC.

• I wish there was the ability to score/prioritize by different types of models (this would allow you prioritize different variations of account "profiles" vs. a catch-all score.
• There could be better contact data, but contact data is hard to come by (unless you're crawling linkedin/email signatures for the real deal).
• This isn't really a knock on Datafox, but I hope for a more robust API integration to other platforms that would benefit from account/contact data (Yesware, ChiliPiper, etc.)

• We were doing simple text emails that were coming out of sales peoples inboxes so this functionality wasn't totally needed on our end at the moment, but we imagine that we would have wanted to do more with customizing emails in general.

LeadFuze is super easy to get going and start to work with. There are videos to walk you through it but all you have to do is fill out the form that tells the system what kind of leads you're looking for and you're good to go - it does the rest of the work for you!

Very poor again. I booked 3 demonstrations with them, the first failed to support due to tech issues, the second one failed to arrive for the meeting, as did the third meeting arranged. I had difficulty trying to find anywhere to engage online with them, so the customer experience is very low down in my opinion.

It is an easy to use tool and the integration with Salesforce works well. Also, it was a real time-saver when it comes to looking for information about companies where you want to make a pitch,

Lead Fuze focuses on the data from LinkedIn users. It is much easier to set up a campaign in Lead Fuze and then connect it to automation. With LI Sales Navigator, you have to do more work and I'm not convinced that it provides the best data, though I can't prove that. LI Sales Navigator only lets you run one search at a time. With Lead Fuze, you can run as many as you want (I think)

• It has no impact on my region because of the lack of information.
• Works only for the teams focused on big companies so SME teams don't benefit from it.
• It is a great tool to prioritize big accounts.

• The amount of time I spend on prospecting for clients is so minimal that it barely registers on my calendar, and time is money.
• I can offer the same lead generation efforts for my clients at a large profit margin, since I can have unlimited lead lists and automate the service for them as well... They feel my team is spending hours mining LinkedIn for laser-targeted leads, but we simply have it running in the background.
